The newer Delta A320 with the IFE are very nice.

I think the 737 was originally designed for 4 or 5 across seating instead of 6.

Really gotta credit American's PR staff on this one.


Why not announce it now? It'll get lost in the mess instead of standing out on its own.

Normally fly United or Delta and just flew American last month and it was the worst service and oldest plane I have been on. I don't plan on flying with them again unless I have to.

I'm quite sure those of us who are tall would rather deal with this relatively minor issue than go through life being 5'6" 1/2

American flying international is pretty good.
Domestic is terrible.

I know. I was illustrating an exaggeration to make a point. Even in to the late 60s and 70s when air travel was more common place, the cabin/seating was far more spacious. My parents flew then and they were not rich. They had full meal service, plenty of room, lounges etc. Hell even into the 80s.

American stewardess, who was a man, refused to serve me a beer on a flight from IAH to BTR because in his queer opinion the flight was too short

American has 100 737-Max planes on order that will have these new tiny seats.

They will basically be unavoidable.

They consider it a hassle to serve anything. They don't want to deal with it, and the trash pick up.

I have a stewardess friend who told me the other staff would hope for rough weather so they could stay in their seat.

I hate when people say "we used to dress up to fly". We also weren't crammed like sardines in there either

And people didn't get the shite beat out of them when the airline had to make room for the flight crew. Or a stroller.

What's worse than being around short people in the rare occasion that they have advantage(eg airplanes and roller coasters)?

Being around a short person with a big cock. Pisses me off.
It's like WTF did God feel sorry for you when whipping up your DNA?
