I got lambasted by Hiddy and Co for expressing such views on here (AA are awful you know!), so you might want to temper that down :D
I have never had a problem with service on AA (despite some giving the impression that it is consistently below par) so it would be interesting to hear your thoughts. Enjoy the delightful AA 77W hard product! |

For a night flight the AA77W wins for me. The bed is 6ft 3in and feels more roomy to me, and the personal storage space is far greater. The IFE is also superior. On a night flight I am personally not looking for great service, just great sleep! |
Gutted the WiFi isn't gogo so that's another 19usd! Doh :D. Service is fine.... ;) it's definitely not BA with a smile though :)
Bloody Mary is bloody marvellous :D http://i.imgur.com/6Eoh3qLl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/5GuiECel.jpg http://i.imgur.com/TOsCDXQl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/OECunN9l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/bhKgskIl.jpg |

This is great! I've booked the 77W for 3 of my flights this year - bored/frustrated with Club, so looking good! Looking forward to all the TP runners updates over the next few days.
|
Starter and Mains done.
All very fresh, tasty and well cooked^ Not sure the in-flight WiFi will like imgur but will try :D |
|
It's a good product, I took the trans-con in January, JFK-LAX-JFK. Service was a bit better on the way out. I really couldn't complain and I love the AA sundaes :D I need to book another flight or two now!
Have a great trip and I look forward to the updates :) |
I remember they used to come around with a trolley that had the ice cream and all sorts of toppings on it. You just chose what and how much you wanted, don't they still do this?
That sundae you picture looks awful small, but the steak looks fab! |
It does look a bit on the small side, they didn't have a trolley in January, it's a small cabin, it was produced from the galley and was overflowing with my toppings of berries, nuts and whipped cream - lovely :D
|
Sundae was prepared in the galley but was plenty of it and tasty hot fudge!
Time for some iplayer and more bloodies ;) Steak was very good...knife not so much :D |

I kinda like AA CC, very proactive and some seem to know when you like a drink. I was on my third B/M, yes third, LAS-LAX last week, (1 on the ground 2 in the air) when the guy behind us asks if there is any Champagne, only to be told that they only had a big bottle and as not to want to waste it the CC asked people in the vicinity if they wanted any as well. As we were in decent she gets some "To Go" cups out and fills them up so we can keep on drinking until we get to the gate.
|
Seat is very comfy...more so than the babybus last week imo. Will see what it's like to sleep in on the way home :)
Currently cruising at 32000 feet doing 550mph. They seem very quick to put the seatbelt signs on... Bloodies have been swapped for bud light ^ |

I had the same CC on 3 consecutive trips a few months ago - on the last flight (which happened to be LAS-LAX) the CC did the drinks run and asked me if I wanted my usual which elicited a very funny look from the lady in the seat next to me |
On-board Wifi too?? Nice..!
Those are the same seats as Cathay Business Class, right? |

Definitely not as on the ball as BA imo. Very personable crew though.
Oh and a little race over St John's! :D http://i.imgur.com/wRU0Ngal.jpg http://i.imgur.com/VtXYcSMl.jpg |

Have to say, will look at AA next time in order to compare fully.

The seat alone provides a personal experience akin to BA First and the inflight snacks always available and well presented. 5 years ago I would not have looked at AA, now I won't look anywhere else if that seats is on a TATL route. Enjoy HNL, I leave next week but using the baby bus as I need the tier points. Looking forward to it but once the 210 goes to 140 its back to AA and their 777-300 |
Just had the light snack an hour out of JFK...
Was better then it looked ;) http://i.imgur.com/Mcy6bfvl.jpg |

Have you checked out the self serve 'bar' between the two cabins? I've always wondered what is stocked there as on my 77W flights after the meal service I went to sleep.
|
Just landed... Wish me luck at immigration :D
|
When you get to KOA, if you have time, take a cab 3-4 miles into town )kona) to "Huggos" and have beer and fish Tacos on the waters edge there.
|
No one waiting to process people at passport control but lucky I was forth in line. Security was a scrum too :D
Currently in Admirals by gate 42. |
Getting good now...more updates soon but got an at gate opup to 1A to lax :D

Imgur isn't playing ball but F on the 321T is very similar to J on the 77W :)
Nice and private though and service so far is as I'd expect from an F product ^ Bloodies are still flowing and dinner is on way :D |
I am sure Dublin lounge and the early flights were full of people doing an Easter holiday bank holiday. I was on the 831 this morning and sure the person sitting next to me was doing a TP run. Having decided to go via IAD I am now on American 75 on my way to LAX....

20 mins out of LAX... Shattered! More updates tomorrow :)

I'm on my way back from HNL tonight. Just having a few beers in the Sakura lounge. It's a bit naff!! Not looking forward to the AA 757 red eye to be honest. :-( |

So the 321T was great. Lovely service. Chicken was superb too ^
My only gripe was the light and noise from the galley heard from 1A. Slept a little then arrived at LAX. Wow what chaos out the front! :D Waited about 15 mins for the shuttle which dropped off at the hilton first then the CP. Got a decent enough room on the 15th floor and it's now 6am :( Pics.... http://i.imgur.com/ZZsUnyfl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/K8FILRZl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ODSB2iCl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/Pceu9BOl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/ZHBHAOgl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/JKzDXe3l.jpg http://i.imgur.com/LQkjkCVl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/KSL8fKjl.jpg http://i.imgur.com/u8qPOYTl.jpg |
