20mins I think...gonna be tight at LAX

Yes don't mention the WiFi pass lol

Edit

Back on the plane. Literally walked off into gate 6 and round the gate 7a. Took all of 90 seconds ^ sat directly behind where I was on the way out. Should make up some time lost now hopefully!

Yeah the 757 was a low point... No service on the way back either save some water and nuts if you wanted!

J on the 321T is very comfortable! Currently in 6A.

6A was my seat last Saturday. Hopeful you will get a good view of Manhattan as you aproach.
I did an AA 752 on Tuesday. It was not particularly roomy and less that the 738, but the service was better. I was only served warm water on the overnight 738. AA do not do a service on flights departing after 8pm. Fairly shocking when traveling in First. I suppose this was good for Teledude to let his liver recover from all that alcohol.

Oh dear, so not even a snack basket? i'm on the flight in july and have a 7 hour layover in LAX afterwards, so a bit of food would have been nice

Would you still choose row 1 on the 757?

1B in my opinion is the best seat in the cabin by far - the bulkhead doesn't extend out as far as on the right hand side so you can fully stretch your legs out into the aisle. It's the 64K of their 757s

That's shocking. 5 1/2 hour flight and no meal service. We did LAS/DFW which I think is short of 4 hours and got dinner.
I am looking at my booking for LIH/LAX on the 757 and it says "meal-Brunch"
