That weird adapter is actually either a LEMO or an XLR headset jack, which is used to power ANR/Bluetooth headsets on commercial aircraft. Not a common plug for use by the general public, and still very new to the aviation world, but it is becoming our preferred plug as it allows us to wear ANR headsets without carrying batteries!

FYI, that amenity kit is the old intl premium economy kit, they are only clearing the old stock, the new Shinola kit is different

These planes are specifically for JFK-premium West Coast and are segregated from the rest of the fleet. They were excluded from the Oasis reconfiguration. But 1-1 first on a narrowbody is unheard of elsewhere. The international J behind it is 2-2.

Sad to see pre COVID service still hasn’t returned. I’ve flown this service to and from SFO many times over. You should’ve received warm nuts with a choice of drink, then an appetizer and salad, followed by another drink service, then your entree and fresh bread basket, another drink service, then dessert and or cheese plate, followed by coffee/espresso service and after dinner drinks. The snack basket is then placed upfront. Mid flight you should’ve received an offering from the basket and a warm cookie. Prior to landing sparkling water and citrus garnish. Looks like you received an express version of service. Usually a full tray like that was served on red eye flights.

Love your videos. It’s a great way of experiencing traveling without traveling. So happy you are flying again! Stay safe!

As an Australian, it's unusual to have many 'long' haul domestic flights, with the East Coast to Perth being the only option (Which i'm yet to do). I flew the business class from LAX to JFK a few weeks ago and was really pleased with it. I'm flying First tomorrow from JFK to SFO and am looking forward to seeing what it's like. I was told February 1st was the day the service was to change back to some normality, so fingers crossed. Love your vids!

Another excellent video Jeb. Thank you for the way you construct your trip reports....they are logical, focused, meaningful and useful for us non-regular flyers to consider. Also, the fact that you show clips of the food selection rather than showing you shoveling food down your gob (mouth) is very classy. :-)

Thank you for another really well done and as always pleasant video. I really have enjoyed your Amtrak reviews as well. I am in Saigon now under covid lockdown and so this is about the best and only way for me to travel. But as I am really happy in Vietnam it will be this way till Vietnam re-opens its borders for at least a year without issue. I grew up in New York and a trip to JFK or rather Idlewild as it was called when I was a boy was always exciting. Later I used to go there to watch the Concords take off and you could really feel the afterburners in your chest as they lifted up. I also enjoyed seeing the ever so cool looking IL62s that Aeroflot used on the Moscow route. I would later fly one to Moscow in the waning days of the Soviet Union. Anyway... thank you again and safe travels!

I just popped across the Atlantic on AA46 from DFW to MAD. Took the same flight from Madrid a few months earlier. Those seats are a very sexy innovation on the International version. I have to say they do a damned good job and the minute you’re on the aircraft you feel like you’re home. I have to say that the food was OFF THE HOOK and some of the best I’ve had. You made me smile with the “before times” comment. So accurate. Just found your videos and I’m really excited to follow your journeys! BTW I had the Short rib on a flight too. Was a little different configuration but yummsville.

Seeing the flip down monitors brings back a lot of memories

The highlight of every vid is expecting Jeb to be talking about his qc20s… lol

As someone who just flew First Class on Delta this is a car superior first class experience than what I just had.

We recently took AA to Athens, Greece non-stop. We paid for the Premium Economy and the kit is the same as well as the food is presented in the same manner. We were offered a pre-flight drink. The seats are a bit wider and the pitch is much better. They do recline. I actually liked it. We paid the same amount for their main-cabin extra in 2019. I’m still not sold on their business or first class quite yet. Thanks for the information, great video.

Jeb, first I would like to say "Thank you for sharing your wonderful video with us." Even if I know that I won't fly to the USA I do enjoy all your videos very much. A active flight attendant is a good value for the airline and she/he can make a trip very enjoyable and unforgetable. I am very happy that you are always sitting at the window because I can look out of it and enjoy the beautiful scenery of your country. Second: Congratulations to reaching 250000 subs in KZread. I am sure that your channel in KZread will become bigger because of the high quality of your videos. Greetings from ZRH

6:29 I don’t think it’s selfish at all when you consider the cost of a first class ticket. You pay for this luxury. I use to feel guilty when I would fly first or business. Then it hit me. I paid my money for this service.

Nice take on American's top offering Jeb, seems like you are almost becoming a fan of your previously most hated airline ;). For better or worse not much has changed since 2020 on Flagship First from what you showed. There is noise of real glassware, multi-course meals, sundaes, and the real Flagship Lounge returning, I don't hold out a lot of confidence until that is an official announcement though!

Spirit: AM I A JOKE TO YOU ?!

Glad to hear some of the amenities of first class are returning! I do think the IFE's on American are a bit weak. I usually just use it to watch the flight info and our location and just use my iPad with all the movies I want to watch already loaded on it. Then every time they make an announcement it doesn't interrupt my show! I would love to see this configuration on more domestic routes! Hey American! If you are watching! DFW to Vegas please!!

Great video! What really stood out to me was your AP RO dual time PR though..what a watch!

"Gin, tonic and please." Gold Star to Jeb! I cannot wait to be on board and say those very words!

Hi Jeb. Congratulations on 250K subscribers ! Definitely a " swanky" way to fly on a domestic route. I wish we had a couple of flights like that here in Australia !😂

Very interesting Jeb. I just returned from an international trip in first class on Delta and KLM to and from Africa and you are spot on correct with regards to the lounge service. I found the service overseas much like it is in the US, spotty depending on where you are (in terms of amenities) but overall, it was ok. I'm not an AA fan having used them before. While I do travel often (Made diamond twice this year) I don't travel as much as you. I heard about that experience offered by AA but it really looks like Delta One to be honest, and I'd prefer Delta One given your review. Any way, I enjoy your videos my friend and I hope to one day "See you in the skies!" Safe travels.

I fly the Flagship Business regularly and the Flagship First on occasion, never had a bad experience and the new amenity kits are fantastic (Edit: thats an old amenity kit... the new ones are much more comprehensive)

Gotta try Flagship first this year while I can. Loved watching this video again. 👍🏻

Before COVID (2019): Flagship first had different entree choices, an additional soup course, multiple dessert choices, and different/enhanced wine list. Currently (Early 2021): Flagship first shares the same food and wine menu as business. The difference is you get a dedicated purser, plus the direct aisle access. The pre-departure beverage is not the norm. Also, the B&O headsets are awesome! The drawback is they do collect them 45 minutes before landing, but they let you have them longer in Flagship First. Additionally, AA's IFE is quirky. Instead of looping to the music playlist you selected, it would jump to the next playlist. Hence why I woke up to heavy metal music .

I worked on some stuff related to flagship first at my job and it’s neat to see the product, thanks for sharing.

Loved all your travel videos. Loved your fine watches too! 😊

Dang man~ you living a life! cool video! i just had my second first class with korean air and it was fantastic too! great video!!

1 x 1 seating is great. I would have picked the same meal. IFE does need work. Great job Jeb !!!

My daughter and I have done this flight more than a few times. By far our best was a red eye LAX to JFK, spending the whole day in NYC and hoping on the overnight JFK to SFO, sleeping the whole way, showering in the minute suite and enjoying San Fran before returning home. Spending no money on food or hotels! Being a non-rev has its perks!! Yes, the food is the same in first and Business class. You receive 2 extra plates in first makes it seem more substantial (to some).

I miss the first class cabin on the L1011 back in the late 90s. Great memories flying nonstop Atlanta to Hawaii 🙂

Nice Jeb! I still get a smile whenever I hear your intro... brings back memories of my attempts at an American accent on the grounds of capitol hill. :) Hope you're well and congrats (again) on the 250K milestone!.

Hi Jeb, Nice video, I like it. The Adapter which you do not know is an very old (70's until 90's) headphonejack used by exclusive brands as B&O and Telefunke. However they where used bij only a few brands. I am amazed to see it on an American plane. Because these jacks where mainly used here in Europe. Especially Scandinavian countries, Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, France, Austria and Switzerland and not in many other countries. Not even in the UK. And they where mainly used on high-end stereo-equipment. Hope I cleared that up for you.

Just flew this route yesterday and flagship lounge is now opened back up, and quickly look at the menus and the food was different in business to first.

Love your thorough & in depth analysis.

Jeb, I flew flagship business MIA-LAX in July, the way your meal was served looked exactly the same to the way mine was served. No PBD though, I can't wait to have one of those again. Maybe I'll get one when my wife and I fly QSuites in October. As always, love the videos and maybe I'll run into you at GSO or CLT since I live in Salisbury, NC!

Finally the wait is over👏🏻👏🏻 Congrats for 250k

Yes the food in First is the same as in Business, because I was literally just ordering my business class meal for Tuesday and it's the same options haha

JetBlue operates their A321LR JFK-LAX and vise versa now, I flew their first class, amazing, much better than the American first class which I have also flown on, both airlines are great but the JetBlue first class was amazing!! Definitely check it out, great video!!

Also so good. Thank you 🙏 greetings from the UK 🇬🇧

Jeb just a few words to congratulate you for your engagement. You seem to be on cloud nine. There's a special glimmery in your eyes and a spring step in your tone of voice. You seem to be definitely in cloud "Nine" and I am happy for you. It couldn't happen to a better guy. All the best and thank you for your always very professional work.

I am a MVP 75K on Alaska, and a Diamond with Delta. The lounges at LAX for both are getting better food lately. Especially with this Covid stuff. But with the Delta Variant, I worry they are going to scale back again. If you get a chance to try the Alaska lounge, I highly recommend the Bloody Mary, with a dash of horseradish. I swear they make the best Bloody Marys ever! Happy flying!

Love how you break down everything and n these videos !!

Congratulations Jeb! Love your video reviews. 👏🏼👏🏼

I was so glad to see a video come up of American domestic first that was today, because all the others are filmed during the pandemic or pre-pandemic. I'm taking an American first class next month and wanted to see what's going on with them now. Thanks!

Thank you for sharing.

Super informative vid as usual for Jeb!

Love you Jeb thanks for the beautiful video 🤝

Took the same iron LAX - JFK - SNA last month. Same experience with the lounge on both flights, better experience with IFE, but while the compartment was comfortable once inside, to get my 5'8 165' body with size 8.5 shoe between my seat and the one in front required the flexibility of a Cirque de soleil performer. I got the impression the seats were designed for a different craft, and forced into the 321. Will compare with Delta on the same route next month.

I've flown them all, but I would definitely take a 767 over a A321 any day. This is very confining as is JetBlue.

Another great video Jeb! Thanks so much for someone like me to be able to travel with you on your flights, trains, etc. to see all the beauty that God has created! God bless you and your family! Safe travels my friend! Concerning the United First Class Experience one of the most important things for a long flight is your entertainment which United needs to be more proactive about making sure the product works with no problems, you should get free internet service for a first class flight with business class getting a couple of free hours and economy having to pay for this service and lastly a better lounge experience that should be just as good or better than their competitors.

There are so many travel review videos that are not worth watching. This one was five stars! Great voice and great content!!

It would be an amazing experience to fly in any First class of this sorts. As a lifelong aviation geek, born in an Airforce town watching all the jets and never taking my eye off the sky since. But at $5,000 a ticket for this flight, I doubt it will ever happen.

Great video. Thanks for the many insights provided. Shame American doesn’t expand this to other routes. For years, I commuted from New Jersey to Phoenix. Could never get over the fact that First Class was substandard. As you said, we basically get bigger chairs in “First Class”.
