American Flagship First to London

After nearly 6 pleasant hours and a sampling of most of the menu, we headed out the end of the concourse to Gate 2.

What is with AA’s annoying habit of putting all the bedding on the seat?  WTF?  Are we trying to impress? And what do I do with this crap now so I can sit down??

Guess I could place it in the overhead but… there are only two large overheads on each side of the plane.

Except a crew member completely filled one of them with his/her oversized bag. Yeah, that’s the AA way. I moved it to a cross aisle overhead before that pax arrived, and asked the flight attendant to take the bedding away until I needed it.

OK, that looks a little better without all the bedding off of the seat.

And true to AA form, pre-departure beverage in Flagship First plastic “glasses”...

Tonight's menu.  No wine list was presented.

AA's new woke PJs.  These were so uncomfortable that they even felt every bit like recycled glass crAAp that you’d expect from Tempe gang.

Oh yeah, 40 minutes later, my “glass” is still there.  No refill ever offered.

After take-off, I passed on dinner, asked our FA to make my bed and slept for 4 hours. Prior to landing...

Clearly AA just isn’t just into international First Class and the hard and soft product show it.

After quick passport control, we stopped into the BA Arrivals Lounge for a quick shower and bite to eat.
