Pre flight beverage
I am currently sitting on. Flt 1152 MIA/LAX. We were just offered OJ or champagne. That's different from a week ago.
we're also 45 minutes late because the MIA catering people messed up, and had to re-do.
I don't think that's new 🤔

Boston & JFK are both showing Dinner. Just would like to know, it matters greatly to me.

I was on the LAX-DFW flight 04-Dec, and sadly the cheese bomb was a major improvement from my first leg, 5+ hours LIH-LAX. They “forgot” to stock more than 4 sandwiches, so it was a tray of hummus and the horribly bland potato salad. Had to beg for a second drink, too.

Is there any difference in quality of booze between transcon J and F? I'm trying to get back to old habits and it'd be nice to start weekend with a glass of champagne :-) Unless of course omicron ruins everything!

That is beyond unacceptable. You should contact them and at least get some miles in compensation.

I sent them a message this week and am waiting on a response. Ironically, the woman in front of us was sleeping on the center console, so using the drink tray was impossible with a foot of her hair dangling down into it. Worst flight I’ve been on in a very long time.

Hi FT! I'm a long time lurker but first time poster.
Does anyone have any recent experience with CLT to HNL in PE (or coach since they are treated the same)? I am flying this route this week. What exactly are "refreshments" for this flight? A bag of chips or a biscoff seems a bit skimpy for a 10 hour flight so I'm trying to determine what I need to bring on board for sustenance.

DFW-BOS
Un-oasis'd A321S!
"Dinner"
Excellent attentive service from the FA throughout the flight that earned him an AApplause certificate.
Service began with drink of choice in real glassware (YAY!!!) and bagged almonds.
Meal choices tonight were either the turkey and cheese or the pimento cheese sandwich. I went with the pimento and it was okay. Sides were ok, too, but this sham of a meal service needs to stop. It is time to bring back hot meals, nuts, and real desserts again!

I'm sure I missed it somewhere, but has there been any definitive announcement regarding when regular hot meals are coming back to non-Flagship/transcon domestic AA F? United has been serving hot meals on some flights as short as ~800 miles since June.

I got the Pre Order prompt for LAX-BOS but then you cant see the meals and basically cant do anything so whats the point of the prompt?? Ridiculous we cant get Pre Order back accept on JFK. I'd like to have my first choice locked in but also its more than that.....I want to have the option to do a special meal and get the Indian Veg..
With Miami there is no prompt but Boston now a prompt but you cant choose. So lame.

Nothing. Every PM I sent to AA on twitter comes the typical canned corporate response as we are looking at things, covid, safety, yadda yadda yadda.

What would you expect them to say??? I doubt complaints filed via Twitter even get recorded and forwarded to the appropriate managers. If you're going to complain and have it at least counted, e-mail Customer Relations.

No I don't expect them to say anything. I want AA to know their shortcomings and *hope* messages like mine and others are reviewed internally.

The normal offering of buffalo mozzarella sandwich or the southwestern beef salad with corn, beans, quinoa. I noticed the one oven set and operating with the 18 minute timer and got all excited. Nope, it was for the crew. Incase I was prepared with some Tony Chachere seasoning packets to add some flavor to the potato salad at least.
