We have just released our brand new review of American Airlines economy here in 2024, same plane, same product different route and also a completely different experience 😳 Check it out now here - kzread.info/dash/bejne/gnqnldGnqMancrQ.html

Thanks for the fair, reasonable assessment of AA services in 2023. I found it interesting.

Thanks for the video 👌🏽

Good job! I flew MIA-LHR in November, the catering is always better at the base airport, but that didn't look too bad.

Yeah that’s normally the case but if I’m honest, for economy, the food was decent enough. Never expect too much of it, especially from US carriers. Thanks for watching!

fab video again 👏

we just travelled with AA a couple of weeks ago, JFK to MIA, in business class (or first class they call it) large comfortable seats at the front of the cabin (around 4 or 5 rows I think) 2 seats each side, decent recline, foot rests and food and drink included. Was very comfortable for the 3 hour flight.

Thanks mate. I'll be doing this route and seat next week from Miami to London. First time visiting London.

Hi, I am about to go in a week, from San to Miami at night. Does anybody have any tips. I haven't been on a flight in 18 years.

Is that food any worse than BA or Virgin on the same route? I've flown all three airlines and I've not found a massive difference, to be honest. Virgin's presentation is great but I find their food tries to be too fancy (which it isn't, in Economy at least). I've also flown Lufthansa and Aer Lingus across the pond recently, and while I know these airlines aren't particularly known for amazing service, neither could touch the food or service of BA, VS or AA. American's international economy is 'pretty decent' as you said, with very good IFE and a comfy seat. That's about what I hope for these days, although not having a window would drive me crazy...I'd trade legroom for a window but that's me.
