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.

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 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

Steak was very good...knife not so much

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 ^

3 on that route is pretty immense

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

Yup! WiFi is very good... Not.enough bandwidth Tidal in HiFi but normal works fine

Drinks service is reactive rather than proactive but not an issue.

Got cakes?!

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.
