AA’s finally got it’s new Priority AAccess program out (and according to some, it’s bad! BAD!, then again, these are the same people who are raving about LV’s new elite give-aways) I’m not so sure. As all have pointed out, all you get now that you didn’t have before is a cutsy into the front [...]
Flew on AA mainline down to BNA tonight.
Here’s the obscenely lacking first class service we got:
Now what, you say, might I be complaining about…well the fact that it’s a Vodka Tonic because apparently it’s too damn hard to stock gin on an airplane these days.
I need my gin dammit! AA this anti-gin aggression [...]
At the ORD Admiral’s Club waiting for AA309 to board…I’m winging it to PHX today to meet up with Eric and help him drive back across the country.
American announced it’s latest regressive fees today, and most of the international upgrade co-pays aren’t terribly surprisingly, but the ball-buster is that it now costs 30,000 miles PLUS $100 to upgrade.
Feh. What’s the point of “free” “mile-based” awards if you need to pay a bucket of cash to get the award as well?
And we’ve got our third major safety incident in a week.
Looks like they’re gonna get the up-close-and-personal treatment that AA got earlier this year from the FAA.
I just hope they have it all sorted out by November when I’m flying them ORD/LAX/SYD and back (LAX/SYD in A380…woot!).
I had totally forgotten I had signed up for this promo, but I’m not going to turn my nose up at extra Q-miles…not at all.
What part of this quad of chairs say, “less than business class?”
Because according to the US Air Force, they’re “less than business-class standard” and “really not that nice.”
Huh…well let’s compare!
Here’s Sinagpore Air’s First class seat:
Here’s UAL’s:
And here’s AA’s:
Well he is right that it’s not B-Class, it’s definately First-compariable.
I took AA3936 tonight to get back home…and because I was bored out of my skull, ended up taking a ton of pictures during it.
We started out at CVG, with this lonely tug sitting along side us:
Here’s the F/A doing her final flight check:
As we climbed out, we made a nice long left turn:
And we [...]
…it just goes on and on my friends…:-(
AA4306 took FOREVER yesterday. We were stuck on the tarmac so long , the F/A just hung out in the cockpit:
Oh, and our co-pilot is like 12:
And to save on fuel, instead of turning the A/C on, they opened up the service door to let the breeze in…yes, [...]
Weather in ORD must suck ASS!
I wish I could blame AA, but the weather in ORD is crappy…*sigh* Guess I’m going to miss the Van Halen concert tonight.
