Arrived from MCO in the Concourse A so i decided to visit the Admiral Club in thie part of the Airport. The Lounge looks new and nice.
Them i went to the Concourse D because i was flying in F Cabin so i had to try the First Class Dinning.
The service is limitaded, the food is too. The baverage are ok, good Champagine, and Italian Watter and a few soft drinks. The place is small and quiet. Is just to eat and go to the other saloon. I mean, not to much friendly or confortable
I tryed the Service Bag Track and is really nice, you can see where are your bags in every part of the flight.
The Place was the B777, old cabin, of course with the One World Livery and a yellow noise.
The First Class Cabin looks old, spacious yes, but old. The Purser was a lady that i recognize from other flights so i said to her and she was really happy and was so simpathy with me.
The Amenity Kit is difference from Buesiness Cabin, the shape and the cosmetics are diferents but the other are the same
The TCP gave me a Pajama , the old one, nothing new.
The First Class Menu is diffente but OH MY GOD! The options foods are the same of Business Class. Whatz!?!?!?! The only diference was a Soup (?). This is a negative point to American, they, in the website say in First Class you have more options of foods and drinks and is not true.
The service was slowly, and Silvia bring the food for separated, this was nice.
The Boursin cheese is horrible so i choose the Turkey and was tasty and nice.
The breakfast was not the best, but the Quiche Loraine is great and taste ok.
The day is waking up arriving to Buenos Aires.
Silvia come to say Good Bye and bring me this chocolats at 7am morning (?) BUt was a cute touch.
The cabin ready to arrive,
Sorry that your first time in International First had to be on AA's old 77E--these seats aren't really much better than the new J seats and the service level is barely better than in J, with the only difference in the soft product being a soup and better wines. The good new is, the old F seat is waaaay better than the old angled lie-flat J seat.
U.S. Carriers have all but done away with International F. Delta got rid of it over 10 years ago, UA only has it on a few aircraft and just announced they will be doing away with it as planes get the new Polaris Business class, and after all the AA 77Es get the new J cabin, only 77Ws will be left with F in the AA fleet.
Personally I wouldn't pay for F on AA, but it would be a good use of a Systemwide Upgrade if you were already booked in J. Thanks for sharing!
