You mean after the 10K chime goes off the flight attendants all get up (after putting down their People mags lol), do the drink service the immediately bring out your food? I don't like it either. Next week I'm flying MIA-LHR. I will request when I get my tito's and NUTS that may I please wait to have dinner after a few cocktails first. Do you think I'll be met with resistance?

Zodiac indeed.... No storage on the side like the B/E, crappier IFE than B/E, coffin feeling seats & you get to rock in your seat too.

Flying Flagship First LAX-BOS on a flight showing lunch. Why isn't pre-ordering offered?

JFK-SNA 430pm
Dinner321T
Business Class
​​​​​​spinach and gouda stuffed chicken. Meal was pretty good. The cardboard packaged roll was really nasty. Service on board was excellent all around. Really hope the plastic and paper cups go away soon!

Did you flip the tray around, or did they serve it that way?

Probably. Let us know how that goes.

The only flagship transcon routes AA is currently offering J/F pre-ordering on are JFK-LAX/SNA/SFO. It's been that way for the last year. Don't bother asking why. Nobody knows.

Even pre-COVID American crew has always hated delaying the service on a TATL flight. If you are in F they'll usually be ok with requests to slow things down but in J it's always been rushed.

That's particularly true on flights ex JFK since these are extremely short

My flight today (from ORD) has real AA branded plastic cups again. Maybe the generic plastic cup era is over.

Or not. My ASE-PHX flight featured the smaller, generic plastic cups still....but your post gives me hope!

Flying Mia-LAX within the next two months. It says on AA2283 that refrehsments will be served in Flagship Business. I'll still get a meal tho right? I mean they serve it to first class. Also should there's still bedding, right?

Noticed that also, very weird. No way F gets a meal and J doesnt. Has to be a mistake. All the J flights say Refreshments for a few week stretch there.

Bedding who knows. Just depends if they load it in or not. If they dont you will get some BS excuse. Hit and miss on this route.
