Sorry, yes it is American airlines.
If you eat vegetarian, there will likely be a vegetarian option. If you are on the morning JFK-LAS this will likely be a cereal / fruit option. |

If you really want, you could route JFK-LAX-LAS on American and you would get a kosher meal on the JFK-LAX flight in business or first. Honestly though, not worth the effort.

Incorrect. Thee only time ANY SPMLs are available on AA is in F/C on transcon flights. That's it. This includes both KSMLs and VGMLs
Special Meal Availability Special meals are available on Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Snack and Breakfast Snack flights when ordered in advance. Order at least 24 hours prior to the flight:

I'm aware the OP wrote First class. Doesn't change the fact that there are no SPMLs on JFK-LAS. @:-) |

You posted a link which proves my point. JFK-LAS is NOT a transcon flight, meaning there will NOT be a vegetarian option.

Doesn't change the fact that there are no SPMLs on JFK-LAS. @:-) Godolphin Complained about not having a kosher option in First Class on an American Airlines flight from JFK to LAS. Do you dispute that, on just about all morning flights, AA offers a cereal and fruit option for breakfast in first class?

I dispute the fact that "there will likely be a vegetarian option on the JFK-LAS leg." Not sure how that slipped by in your whole logical progression

If you eat vegetarian, there will likely be a vegetarian option. If you are on the morning JFK-LAS this will likely be a cereal / fruit option. 1/4MM@20 suggested that the OP could order a kosher meal, in first or business class, on the New York to Los Angeles leg, if he were to route him/herself JFK-LAX-LAS. You incorrectly asserted that "ANY SPMLs are available on AA for domestic flights is in F/C on transcon flights." I corrected you by directing you to the AA.com webpage that states that special meals are available in first and business classes on transcontinental flights in the U.S. |

Small point though: F/C, as I wrote it means First/Business, same as your correction of First and Business. If I had meant just First Class, I would've only written F, or even FC. Not F/C. |

On recent flights the selections included stuffed shells in tomato sauce, penne pasta with artichoke, cheese pizza, cheese enchilada and salmon. |

I never insinuated those selections to be appropriate for strict kashrut adherents. I was merely following up on 1/4MM@20's post:
one would think that any Carrier would serve any Special meal up front since most likely that person either purchased a FC tkt or Y fare and for the few that get their miles anyway but flying its too few that it wont really affect the bottom line ,IMO. That said most likely the Carrier will be receiving more $$ then if that person was flying in the back of the bus on a paid tkt. 50k for a Dom FC tkt x what .01 - .015 cpm selling the miles means anywhere from $500-750 coming in. and 1 less FC seat going as an UP that will bring in $0 |

There are different levels of Kashrut observance. I fully appreciate that there are many like you who eat only "Kasher leMehadrin." However, outside their home, many modern orthodox and conservative Jews will eat food that is not certified kosher so long as it does not contain meat or seafood. I did not mean to engage in a Talmudic discussion. So this is it from me on the subject. |
