AA is overall a great airline. However, I do agree they need to get rid of CBS and their inflight service. I think they should go NBC, but NBC and United are linked up. I agree with others to go with DIRECTV.

I see the old TWA colors on the 57s at SNA.

No need, the Rams will get beaten by the one and only Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Anyway, I think AMR Corp. is cutting any ties with St. Louis sports teams (look at the former TWA Dome--now it's The Dome).

Jump to postDoes anyone know what will be the last flight of TWA history. In other words, what will be the last flight to operate as TWA XXXX? Where from and where to?
Jump to postFirst flight:
Never.
Last flight:
Never, unless someone gives me a ticket to fly later tonight or tomorrow.
I've never been outside the United States, or the continental U.S. for that matter.
Jump to postAmerican is a great airline, and it represents the United States of America! Anyone who says AA is, "an accident waiting to happen," is w-r-o-n-g, wrong. I've flown AA recently and had no problems. Fly AA!

What do you need a 732 and an A320 to carry "The Pack" to Detroit for? The NFL allows for a 53 man roster, so take 53 + some coaches etc., that's no where near what those two planes can carry. Oh well. Go Pck Go!!!!

Jump to postCurrently at DCA, seating is limited to 156 seats. So basically you see planes like 738s, MD-80s, etc. Alaska's 737-900s have 156 seats, and they're supposed to or already are flying into DCA from SEA.

I've flown AA recently, and I found them to have great service, plane in good shape, etc. I think that some travellers get a little too spoiled these days.

Jump to postThe most amount of seats allowed is 156, so that would limit it to a 739 (like AS), or smaller.
