I arrived at the gate less than 5 minutes before the theoretical boarding time, and it was ready to board.
As a reminder, here is the itinerary followed:
Boarding
A few minutes after arriving at the gate, boarding began right on schedule, and after calling the military on duty, group 1, of which I was a member, began boarding. I was one of the first on board.
Cabin and welcome
The welcome on board was rather nonchalant, as the steward greeted passengers with both hands in his pockets.
The cabin was very comfortable, configured as a 1-2 on this regional aircraft, perfect for a 40-45 minute flight.
This morning, no welcome drink was offered.
Service and catering
The service starts as soon as the seatbelt sign is switched off.
The steward asked me what I’d like to drink, and I had a Bailey’s coffee. The service was OK.. I refused the refill and after a very short flight, the final approach to JFK began.
Arrival and disembarkation
We arrived at the gate at JFK a little over 30 minutes ahead of schedule, and I was soon landside and on the Airtrain and LIRR to Manhattan.
Bottom line
An uneventful flight, but how quick and easy domestic flights are in the USA!
