I flew an American A321 from DFW to SFO once and the 2 economy flight attendants were complete opposites one was pretty rude and the other was flying with the same enthusiasm as that flight attendant in the video.

[@loveionshanpriale749]

Im taking my very first flight on an Airbus in less than a month! Your videos are helping me with my first flight jitters. Keep reviewing and posting!

[@carlospartners]

The last flights I've done with American were good. Usually not a fan of American, but give it a try last year and they convinced me. On that trip I flew on the A321 and is a great plane, very comfortable and a good ride. At that time I selected Main Cabin Extra and it was a good choice also. I was going to travel with American again on October, but plans changed due to the COVID. Hope to hop in one of AA's planes soon!

[@Danielkiyozvideos]

That pull up to the run way was perfect

[@GenkisTravels]

Starting to enjoy flying the A321 more and more. It will never replace the 757 in terms of take off, but I'm starting to become fond of it :)

[@United1158]

The 797 will replace the A321

[@MiamiDreams]

I flew the 757 for 10 years before transitioning to the Airbus series. It will never beat it? The Airbus is superior to the 757 in almost every single performance category. The 757 is old and needed to be updated. Boeing refused. So, airlines are moving to Airbus.

[@lisacoleman7265]

Thank you so much for doing these! I’ve only traveled by plane once for the first time last year, on Southwest. And now this year we are flying AA first class so this really helped!!

[@oldschooltrains]

Last time I flew AA was on a 763 from SFO to ORD in Economy.

[@doubledbbw]

My first airplane flight was on American Airlines back in 1968. It was a flight from LAX to JFK on a Boing 707. I have flown American a few more times since then on their DC-10, Boeing 727, Boeing 767 and a few more flights on their 707. There was always good service on board with American Airlines.

Welcome to South Florida! I'm a FLL based FA here.

[@flyingaroundtheworldytb]

Flew this same AA A321 cabin in 2018 a couple of times, even got the tripreports in my channel. It was in Economy and legroom wasn't really good. However the great IFE makes the flights very enjoyabe though it is a bit lagged. Great video!

[@ryanridder4576]

Awesome you got to see Alaska Pixar pier and more to love liveries at SAN, and the American Reno Air heritage livery at DFW! Yes, I’ll miss the IFE screens as they are being retrofit into what was called “Oasis but is actually now “ Kodiak!

[@LeanderTravels]

Nice detailled trip report! American Airlines flight attendants are almost always so friendly! I flew American Airlines longhaul from Miami, Dallas, Philadelphia and Charlotte and I´ve only had one single unfriendly crew member on all these flights.

[@airplanegod]

The reason these planes have PTV's is because AA ordered these back before their bankruptcy and merger with US Airways. They planned to renew their narrowbody fleet with A319, A321, and 737's with all PTV's. Then the merger happened and DUI Dougie decided to add more seats and remove all IFE, kind of like he did over at US Airways.

[@dannychan6202]

Bruh moment.

[@davidkaiser1004]

Nice trip report. This 1st version of this AA Airbus A321 is an A321-100 because it has the inflight video system. The 2nd version of the AA Airbus A321 is an A321-200 especially the NEO because of personal device entertainment. Some of these Airbus A321's need to be painted in an ex U.S. Airways retro livery because that was based at Phoenix's Sky Harbor International Airport.

[@maeyo8048]

ayyy lets go dude, Im a San Diegan myself and that drive is all too familiar haha, hope u had a good flight 😎🤠

I have been on AA many times. I usually have issues coming from small airports. I rarely have issues from big airports.

Aside from boarding group number difference, Would you rather fly first class on an a321 NEO or Main Cabin Extra on a 787-9?

[@philygamervlogs8385]

Thx for the awesome content itripreport

If my AA flight doesn't have IFE, I will fly with someone else. They barely offer food currently. I am going for where I get the most value, whether it is Delta, American or United.

I flew in F on an LAA 321S in that same configuration from CLT-MIA in July. The contrast between those birds and the LUS ones and the Oasified ones is stark. The intl PE seats that are sold as F in the Oasis planes are grim. The only reason I have for not switching to Delta is 40 BA tier points per domestic F sector, even on the 100 mile flight from AVL to CLT.

Have never flown American, but flying them for the first time ever, hopefully, around Christmas (I am Gold Medallion with Delta, but they were waaaaay too expensive this time). Currently booked in MCE on their older configuration 737-8. Here's hoping it doesn't get Oasis'd before then 😬

[@MattHandy8577]

Yes I Flew American Airlines Last November and they were absolutely amazing people. I flew from Providence To Charlotte then Charlotte To Punta Cana with 8 members my family of me and my mother flew first class on both planes because we both have a rare Disease and we cannot walk so my Brother Arranged it for me and my to have wheelchairs Waiting for us throughout the entire trip & for my mother and me fly first class. we flew the airbus A320 from Charlotte to Punta Cana what a wonderful experience. the flight attendants where so amazing and made shure me and my mom where ok especially me because I have special needs and last year was my first time on a airplane in 21 years so I was just a little Nervous but I would definitely fly American airlines again they are so amazing and they have some of the Friendliest flight attendants we also flew first class on the way back from Punta Cana to Charlotte and from Charlotte to providence and the odd part was our plane from Charlotte to providence didn’t have any screens I believe the flight attendant had said that the plane we were flying on from Charlotte to providence was a plane that used to belong to us air but I could be mistaken

[@captainsinclair7954]

I seriously hope that American airlines is gonna listen to us in the future with us not paying them for their newer cabins. I know I'll stop using their services once their good domestic cabins are gone. They lost a great First Class customer to Delta.

[@Againsttheodds2]

Yeah the new “oasis” first class is just sad. Not worth paying, feels like I’m flying on spirit airlines in their version of “first class”

[@pneulancer]

Absolutely. Sadly American hasn't seemed to learn anything in the two years since your comment. It's not gonna break them ; but I fly Delta now and got rid of all my AA stock and dumped it all in BP. True story!

[@largol33t1]

I guess you unfortunately got a bad screen. Inl flew on their A321s to MCO I'm January and the touch screen worked perfectly. I like that it tells you everything right down to flight time remaining and even wind speed and external temperature.

[@youtubehackedbypta4834]

I flew AA from NAS to CLT on their US Airways bestowed A321. Even though it was a good ride, it was aggravating not to have an IFE.

[@Den_aviation]

Lets get it. Florida here we come!!

[@wtrskr59]

Question: Why do all the airlines now always keep the port windows ((SHUT)) and to remain shut during entire flight, the last time I flew Jet Blue which was the last time I flew from LGB to SFO, I got sick the next day for 3 days, Never again will I fly, so I'll use Zoom more now now that we are in this nasty Covid era for 10 years.

For reference regarding leg room in the seat, how tall are you?

Delta has almost exactly the same number of seats on its A321s as American does (191 vs, American's 190 in the refurbished ceo cabins and 194 for Delta vs. 196 for American on the neos), but few seem to notice how dense those are.

[@keving7991]

not a bad video but the takeoff seems a little quick or is it due only to San Diego having one runway ? never been to San Diego but i want to go when this whole virus epidemic ends. and how many time zones do you cross over for this flight 1 or 2? cant tell. also was the flight almost empty? sure looks like it wouldnt mind having a whole row to myself and stretch out and do work on my laptop or iphone while stretched out.

I flew AA DFW-MCO for no other reason than it was $48 round trip. A320 out and a 737 coming back. Airbus economy was pleasantly surprising, 737 was average. I've heard how AA really doesn't like their 737s.

Why are you calling this 32B? 32B is the A321 that AA flies on transcons between JFK and LAX/SFO. 32B has 3 classes of service (First, Business, and a decent coach cabin).

The transcontinental version of this aircraft is referred to the A321T

[@lucassa964]

Being from Charlotte I'm kind of forced to fly AA (which I don't care because they're my favorite airline). Cheapest option out of the Big 3 here. Since CLT used to be a US Airways hub, the A321s they fly have the old US Airways interior, which really sucks because there's no power and no IFE. It's the bare minimum. Luckily, I've never had a bad experience with American so I keep going back to them.

Delta seems to be ok as far a a large US carrier but American and United are really not worth the effort anymore. If you're flying domestic stick with Jetblue or Southwest. If you going budget then go budget and go with the low cost ones.

I would go with Delta. JetBlue and Southwest don't clean their planes as much during the covid-19. I will go with a company that truly cares about it's customers.
