Comfy seat. PDB. drinks and snack mix in the air. I'm partial to 1A. It's a single seat and is easier to view out the window than others

I have flown this several times, often on flights much longer than that. Since the CR7 is the only aircraft AE offers F on, they tend to do a decent job at it. Seats are good and even on a longer flight like ORD-IAH, which is where I normally end up taking this plane, I find myself not feeling like I got crammed on a regional.
I personally prefer the A side of the plane since F is 1-2 seating config, where Y on the CR7 is 2-2. Then I get both a window and an aisle.

Is this new and for all PHX - LAX flights? I have one later this month and it did not feature F seating.

Looks like it's going to be a combination of CR7s and ERDs.

CR 7 F class
Did a quick weekend trip from LGA to BNA on CR7 in F. It's really quiet and seats have head rest just like 737. FA on both flights were really friendly and professional. They served continental breakfast with cereal/fruit/muffin on morning outbound flight and two salad choices (beef/salmon) with bread and desert on evening inbound flight. PDB were served on both flights promptly after boarding. Overall, pretty good experience!

Have nuts and towels been pulled from CR7 flights? I didn't have them on my LGA to ATL r/t this weekend.
