AMERICAN AIRLINES | MAIN CABIN EXTRA vs. MAIN CABIN | IS IT WORTH THE UPGRADE?

This video was not sponsored by American Airlines or any company
Thank you all SO much for 1,000 channel views! I never thought we would hit it this quickly! So here is a special video for you all, I thought I would try narrating a trip report for a change, you might have seen these trip reports on my main channel, but this is a comparison and review of American Airlines' Main Cabin Extra and regular Main Cabin. Hopefully this video will make choosing where to sit on American Airlines easier. This is my first time doing this type of video so feedback is appreciated!

    Just used main cabin extra. Free drinks and was upgraded to business twice on full flights. Nice job American Airlines.

    Main Cabin Extra is totally worth it, did it from BWI-CLT on the 737-800. Love the additional leg room. If AA didn't ban alcohol sales like they're doing now, it would've been perfect!

    Located in prime areas of the main cabin, Main Cabin Extra seats receive 3 to 6 inches of additional legroom. These seats are in the bulkhead, the first few rows of the plane, or in exit rows. In addition to extra legroom, Main Cabin Extra customers receive free alcoholic beverages. MCE also includes one checked bag. Well worth the extra expense

    Great video. Very informative with good editing. Just subscribed. Please make more trip videos. I'm flying AA 737-800 for Christmas next month LAX-LAS. I have BA Silver (Oneworld Sapphire) status so have main cabin extra seat without extra charge. It's good to see in your video that there is a significant increase in legroom.

    Great video! The narrating sounded great, I agree with you on main cabin extras, and it's basically the same for economy plus on United and comfort+ on Delta. Liked

    Delta gives free WiFi and Comfort Plus also gives you free premium snacks and alcohol. Just used it LAX-MCO. Well worth it for a 5+ hr flight. I’m flying MCE on an AA 777-200 DFW-MIA this summer. I’m hoping it’s worth it.

    Yes, you are right, I forgot about all the extras in comfort+! And I think it is worth it for the right price. It's a lot better than United's economy plus and American's MCE
