Why would you want to avoid the 332, out of curiosity? Other than the limited upgrade space, I'd choose it over anything other than the 77W and *possibly* high-J 772.

Oof, a double-connection to Europe, no thanks!
I guess unless you're going from small-city-USA to small-city-Europe, there should be a 1-stop option on some other carrier! |

When does this become public information? ETA: Did you mean the new place doesn't presently have LHR service on AA? On AA/BA (i.e., the JV)? Or at all, on any carrier? If it's the latter, I'm super surprised that AA, not BA, would be picking up the route. |
Someone with better access to seat maps than I could probably confirm this, but as of now, AA's JV partners BA/IB/AY will have slightly more daily seats out of JFK in peak S18 (I picked a random day in July to check) than AA will. About 2730 vs 2800 by my count. Probably the first time this has happened since the announcement of the JV.
Some fuel for the "what's AA doing with JFK" fire: at least 75% of those total TATL JV seats go to the JV hubs LHR, MAD, and HEL with only 6 flights/day to actual spokes. If EI gets added to the JV, over 80% of seats will be to JV hubs and only 5 flights/day to spokes. |

Hahaha, Trenton indeed also works. Just saying, it shouldn't come as a big surprise that AA is regressing in NY. In fact, the biggest surprise is that it took this long to be honest. If AA really is going to use PHL as a TATL gateway for people arriving in the US though, the airport needs to go through a serious rehab project.

PHL and AA (among the other carriers) have agreed to $900 million in enhancements and renovations to PHL. Including the EWR style iPad eateries, a new central entrance for AA ticketing, and a new control tower to replace the existing 35 year old tower.

Although AA flies the A321T to SFO, and they have the best hard and soft product of any airline on the route.

American cities with nonstop svc to JFK (which don't already have a nonstop flight to LHR):
LAS x2 SEA x2 SAN x2 BNA x2 MCO x2 CLE AUS IND DCA x2 BWI BOS x2 CVG CMH PIT ORF PHX x2 All of which would be very strange routes to LHR on AA metal, though maybe a 787 could do IND/CMH/PIT? |
