Thanks for the vid. I was about to book the same flight because it had great rates on the miles. Little did I now the 32q 321Neo at American was just a rebrand of the domestic first class. 6 hour flight and no in flight entertainment? No lay flat seat? We're talking transcontinental here ya'll. This is why American is falling so far behind competitors. I'll be booking this leg of my trip with Delta instead. A little extra $ but its worth it. Thanks. Unbelievable performance from American Airlines once again.
I believe it’s because, as I have noticed, most people are on there phones, tablets or computers during the flight. I’m sure they have an app you can download and watch onboard entertainment. Good video btw!
Thanks for the video, I'm looking at the A321neo going from MIA to LIM (starting from BOS) (35K Alaska miles). How was the legroom? I'm at least hoping it is better than the Avainca business class seat.
Thanks very much, a really informative video as I'm looking to fly on the A321 from PHL to LAS, which is a similar flight time. What was the recline like of the seat? Is it possible to sleep? Also, lovely shots of the approach into MIA - I love flying into Miami in the early morning.
The recline wasn’t bad. It is possible to sleep but likely easier at night time due to no natural light coming through and I imagine your flight will be a daytime flight so that may depend on what others do with their windows. It can be very peaceful coming into Miami upon daybreak with a beautiful sunrise.
Flying AA soon-will have my tablet, but from the looks of it, you can’t eat and watch at the same time. Disappointing. Another superb video, btw. New to your content, looking forward to more.
Thank you 🙏🏽. Yes that setup is unfortunate. Really wish AA decided against not having IFE on this route. It really isn’t competitive when you have LATAM running widebodies on that route ( 767’s ). If price remained equal I would choose LATAM without question as you would get a lie-flat seat.
Thank you for the nice video. Going from MIA to LIM they are offering me the upgrade to Business for $270 What do you think? Also they say you can have 2 more bags if you upgrade, is that happened to you 2? Thank you
Do they offer alcoholic beverages on this flight in business class? ✈️ Flying from BOI to PHL in a couple weeks and wanted to know more about what to expect. Crazy about the in flight entertainment. Thank you for making this helpful and informative video Brandon!
I live in Lima, I fly this route frequently (8-12 x year) Horrible, awful, business class. Not worth the money!!! Not on this route - 6 hours, no screen, wi-fi never works, seat barely reclines, food is sub par. It's not comfy, nor is it cheap. I switched to LATAM a year ago in spite of my years of loyalty to American. The LATAM 767 has a reclining seat, food is good, and there's a screen. Until American stops using this equipment on the LIM-MIA route, I'll stick to LATAM's shabby 767's. BTW airport in Lima has almost finished building a new international terminal and are a runway capable of handling wide bodied planes, perhaps there's hope for a better flight experience from AA on this route.
American really messed up when they retired it’s A330’s during the pandemic. It was short sighted because with production delays on the 787 they are short wide bodies. It puts them at a disadvantage, and not to mention the process of taking out IFE screens on all narrowbody’s. To me just wasn’t a smart decision. United also provides wide body service on its 767 from IAH and a 757 with lie flat seats from EWR.
I'm an American Executive Platinum 10 years in a row. I live in Boston but travel monthly to Lima to visit friends and family. I had to switch to Delta/Latam due to this awful business class seats and equipment. Delta/Latam have more choices to fly to Lima, pretty much the same price and all their business is lay flat. No more American unless is trans-Atlantic for me.
This is why I prefer the Boeing dreamliner when I fly business class to Jamaica from Philly. Lay flat seats are great
Do they even fly a Dreamliner from Philly to Jamaica?
@@BrandonJohnson10K , Yes during the holiday season. Then afterwards 2 times a week. They get booked fast.

Unbelievable performance from American Airlines once again.
Especially when DL,UA,and LA have wide body options. AA was short sided getting rid of the A330’s prematurely. Now it’s coming back to bite them…
Thank you Brandon for the thorough video - very helpful.
Your welcome. Glad it helped.
No tv screen…and you’re in business class??? That’s crazy!
Unfortunately that’s the route American Airlines took with its narrow body aircraft.
Wow I’m taking a flight from st.Louis to Lax and no tv. I won’t be flying AA again !!! They should cut the ticket price than
@@johncawvey5342 It was a short sighted move on their part I believe.

They do

The legroom was fine. You will have more legroom than Avianca’s Business Class seat on their A320 NEO.
Same! Used 35k Alaska miles. Glad for more leg room at least.
Actually flying to Lima and connecting in Miami. This was extremely helpful. I was going to upgrade but this is like not worth it.
Yes. I agree it is not worth it.
This is a shame, I rarely fly business class and was very excited to take this plane tomorrow but seems pretty disappointing :(
Bring a book or your tablet if you want entertainment.

It is not a lie flat seat but you will essentially have a Premium Economy seat. For that price I think it is worth it. 2 checked bags yes.
Thank you brother@@BrandonJohnson10K

Yes alcoholic drinks were available on this flight I took. I will be flying a similar length flight soon but on UA who has IFE screens
@@BrandonJohnson10K thank you! I hope you have a great flight. I've heard great things
that sucks!!!! I went business from Lim - mia right before covid and it was so nice.
Did they use wide bodies then?
I’m going business Lima to Miami is it the lay flat seats
@@lfree4427 No. These seats are not lie flat.
Latam is way more expensive on that route than AA.
Well offering lay flat seats they should be.
