Do you know if this is the same for the 767s that are used on domestic flights, as we would be flying on one between JFK and SFO?

Also, what are AA’s MD-80’s like, as we will also be travelling on one of these when travelling between SFO-LAX, in order to get our return flight back to LHR?

Also, I am aware that CO charge $5 for each alcoholic beverage, does AA do the same and if so how much do they charge?

AA have two types of 767 and JFK-SFO is pretty much the only route which both types serve. The -200 has 3 classes and operates solely domestically, the -300 has two classes and operates primarily internationally but also on some domestic routes too. The big difference between these two types comes in the premium cabins, in economy there is practically no difference between the two except the -300 has been refurbished most recently.

The MD-80s are fine, I flew SFO-LAX on Monday in one of these, and although I was in First Class they are absolutely perfect for 1 hour flights like this. As mentioned, they are very quiet towards the front and very noisy towards the back. Sit on the left side on this flight as you get awesome views of the California coastline and simply stunning views of downtown LA, including a nice flyby of the Hollywood sign.

AA charge for alcohol, on the international flights at least, they are $6/£4 and they are pretty rigorous about not serving to under 21s. Remember on all your domestic flights, non-alcoholic beverages are free, however ALL food is charged for. The selection is pretty abysmal too.

I presume you are doing LHR-JFK-SFO-LAX-LHR? The LAX-LHR flight is one of my favourites, it is really easy to get to sleep on, leaving at a much more sensible time than the United flights or some of the BA flights and so much better than any departure from the East Coast. I would choose AA just for this flight alone.

If the booking class you are ticketed in is W then send me a PM as you’re in luck. I suspect however it will be O or Q?
