I asked the flight attendant do you have nuts in a ramekin yet and she ....well she laughed right at me and said "no we have some packaged almonds" The plastic cups were 6 ounce size. What an embarrassment.
Ugh. This is getting ridiculous at this point.

Well, nothing is really “listed” at this point, since the in flight magazine is gone, and there are no menu cards on most routes. But, yes, it’s consistently available if you’re not flying an RJ… usually 3 mini bottles catered per narrowbody flight.

What are they selling in Y? Is there any decent buy on board hot food? Or like a nice cold cheese Fruit plate for sale? Haven’t flown AA in Y before lol 😆

I’d pretty much eat everything in AC Y BOB over AA J right now. I can’t find AA BOB anyone have the menu?

YMMV but when I used to fly heavy RJ UA/AC, they’d always give me free Y BOB over J meal. Free Y snack benefit for EXP and CK’s would actually be useful more useful sitting in J now. LOL 😑

According to AA's website, they still aren't offering BOB in the back. Completely pathetic.

That food looks light years ahead of AA's paltry offerings. Hell that looks good enough to even bring Ole Jim back from the dead.

Complaining here doesn't do any good. AA Customer Relations needs to be flooded with complaints. I send them a complaint after every flight that should be offering a hot meal in F class.

I'd like to see what the food is actually suppose to look/taste like! I'm guessing when the Chefs at the James Beard Foundation created and cooked the original menu it looked and tasted completely different! Enter AA 's Penny Pinchers, and a Caterer that's probably having to hire anyone who can fog up a mirror...
James Beard is probably turning over in his grave! RT

This is the ginger beef DFW -> HNL today.

The appetizer with sesame crusted tuna was fantastic while the beef let a lot to be desired. There wasn’t much actual beef in the dish with maybe a 10:1 ratio of pasta/peppers/onions to beef.

Has anyone ever been brave enough to open the plastic and attempt to consume that cold lonely bread roll? Is it made from Quinoa flour?

Wish I knew but was unable to get a special Indian Veg meal MIA-LAX since the flight is not avail for pre order no special meals were available. Indian Veg is the best option probably, depending on what you are Okay with.

Thats funny !!! But no accosting at LAX. Well maybe just our homeless problem. I was doing short term parking right across from the terminals for a recent trip and I legit saw 1 homeless guy sleeping in someones parked car and one other homeless guy walking around opening over a dozen different cars looking for one that was unlocked to also sleep in.

I'd walk from the terminals to the Hilton/Hyatt, looks fun. I just dont get how people do it the other way. The walk with luggage and heading out to the flight I could never do. Would need to shower again from working up a sweat on the walk. Drop me curbside at the FFCI door
