Thanks for this video. Although these cabins are getting a bit tired, I really like the three-class setup. Also, with only 102 seats these flights board quickly. The new XLRs will only have 20 lie flat seats instead of 30 so unfortunately I think getting one will become more difficult and expensive. I believe that although there were origninally 16 A321T in the fleet one of them was scrapped after an incident that damaged a wing.
Too bad AA’s retiring this setup once the A321XLRs arrive next year. This is a unique setup almost exclusive to the Flagship transcon routes, something that really makes their premium transcon flights stand out against the competition.
I’m amazed! Was this shot on another planet? Several questions come to mind: 1). You went through the whole terminal at SFO and there were maybe a total of 7 people in the place. They also looked rather normal. Most of the time the terminals at SFO are packed with travelers and it looks more like the Mos Isley space port from Star Wars IV ( “You’ll never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy “). How was this even remotely possible? 2). The Delta cookies on an AA flight strongly suggest that you flew through an alternate dimension. 3). I’m not sure, but I believe Mr. V scrolled right past a Top Gun movie on the infotainment screen without stopping to watch. Also not possible. If only my trips went this well, I’d gladly travel more often.
Thank you for this excellent video. Question: If you're in Business class on AA on that route and are sitting in a window seat and want to come out, do you have to "do a hurdle" if the aisle seat person is lying flat?
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! To answer your question; yes. In these seats you have to either awkwardly step over your seat mate if they are sleeping or ask them to let you out if they are awake. It isn’t the most optimal set up but the seats are significantly more comfortable than economy so that makes it worth the upgrade. Thanks for watching!
Everything was nice service and food was excelent but what about the people in economy did they get the same treatment i bet they only got one cookie please dont rush the video you spoil the whole thing cheers jerry
Thanks for the kind comment! Service in main cabin is not a good as the one in business however the fact that American Airlines still offers a “cold meal” aka snack box is pretty impressive for this kind of a flight. You can view the main cabin experience on my video from JFK-LAX
Imagine, you run a service that gives your customers access to lounges that don't yet exist in all the places served by the special 'service'. So, they then offer you a regular Admiral's Lounge. How nice! Can't make this stuff up folks. Planned insanity.
I agree that it is quite disappointing that there is no flagship lounge offered in SFO, I will say in AA’s defense, it wouldn’t make sense to build one because JFK is the only “flagship” destination. JFK and LAX have multiple international destinations so it makes sense to have one at those airports. Although a flagship lounge would have been nice the admirals club at SFO is large and modern so it wasn’t too bad.

Interesting, I did not know that one was scrapped and yes I totally think as will raise their business class ticket prices
