After a short stay in the lounge, I boarded my last flight of the day to Boston Logan.
As a reminder, here is the itinerary followed:
Boarding
During my visit to the lounge, the flight’s departure time was pushed back several times, from 10 minutes to 10 minutes, until it reached a departure delay of almost 40 minutes.
I was waiting for the boarding start notification to arrive on my phone before I start heading out.
Nevertheless, it’s a true zoo when I arrived at the gate and all the boarding groups rushed to board at the beginning… In short, it was more like European boarding than American boarding.
Cabin and welcome
The welcome was rather cold when I entered this Domestic First cabin with its 20 recliner seats arranged in a 2-2 configuration.
I was in the 4th row for this flight. There was no welcome drink before takeoff. Boarding ook a long time, and the taxi was long.
Service and catering
The service started about 20 minutes after take-off.
I had a double Jack Daniels on the rocks and a few snacks to pass the time between until the end of the flight.
Arrival and disembarkation
We arrived at the gate some 50 minutes late, but I was home in no time thanks to the Silver Line.
Bottom line
An uneventful flight, but the accumulation of delays and cancellations is making life with American a real pain this summer.
