New E175 at DCA but no in seat power?

Flew one of the brand new E175s out of DCA today, delivered like two weeks ago. Interior looked great, felt fresh, all that. But… no in seat power at all. Not in first, not in economy. AA keeps pushing BYOD and streaming, yet there’s nowhere to plug in? On a brand new plane?...

DCA to BOS on AA was brutal. Gate agents made everything worse.

Flew DCA to BOS today on AA1392 and honestly had one of the worst airport experiences I can remember. Came in from Knoxville and we sat on the tarmac for over two hours due to wind, so I missed my original 5:30pm connection. Annoying but fine, stuff happens. Original ticket was...

United Club agent saved us from a long delay

Flying DCA–ORD last week on the 8:30. Got into the club and within minutes the agent who checked us in came to find us, said our flight needed a part flown in and would be mega delayed. Told us to head to the 7:25 since it still had seats. By the time we got down, gate agents...

Water salute at DCA this morning

Snapped this pic of an American 737 getting a water salute at DCA around 9:10am. Looked amazing with the trucks lined up. Turns out it was an Honor Flight from Kansas City bringing veterans in makes it even more special seeing it in person.
