You kidding? AA is packing the J cabins on those leisure flights. Mostly retirees going on cruises. I dont think I have ever seen an empty J seat on the leisure routes to Europe they have added. Lots of money in those destinations, just not road warriors.

Yep, my parents typically fly J when they do, as long as the price is reasonable.

I don’t know why AA sent that email today promoting as if this was news. Sounds like bookings on some routes aren’t doing so hot and AA felt compelled to “remind” their customers about the new routes.
With that said, I like the direction AA is going with adding/testing new routes and expanding their global footprint. I won’t be surprised to see AA launch flights to Casablanca next year or when they start receiving new 787s.

I do think it has to do with seats to land and sea trips for the retiring boomers. That would include us. We have 4 trips that way between now and Jan 2020. Those are pretty much consolidator fares, however it did allow us both to reach EXP last year. And people think its all about cruises, but the land based high end tours are really taking off.
