    Nice write up Manny! Surprised to see they ponied up the fare!
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Thanks... just make sure you get Business or First. Otherwise Coach is just about the same as other top offerings like Virgin America, jetBlue etc.

    Phil, sorry, Economy legroom is not and never will be great. a difference of one to three inches isn't nearly enough to make a difference. It isn't all about knee room...

    I enjoyed your trip report on the AA A321T, it still seems so sad to go from A DC-7 through all the other classic aircraft on this route to a long bus....

    Thanks Rich... technically speaking, it is a far more enjoyable "ride" as opposed to the nostalgia of "looking" at the airplane of old. Indeed the plane is there as a service extension, not as a capsule of history (at least from the business of the Airline that is)

    I am sure those who rode the B767 felt the same way
