Seat8H
FromNew York - John F Kennedy Intl (JFK)
ToTel Aviv Yafo - Ben Gurion Intl (TLV)
Rear facing seat. Not annoying as I thought it would be.
All the seats are connected to each other so I was back to back with seat 7H. Every time she moved I felt it. That was annoying.
Also, Neighbor in 8L faces forward so you are staring at each other when sitting.
Seat is comfortable although I would've appreciated a side arm rest that pushes down for extra room.
on other things -
Food was less than desirable (dinner and breakfast served) from taste to presentation.
Amenity kit very flimsy and the same as the one I got in premium economy.
All in all - most direct flights to TLV offer better products than American.

Seat7A
FromDallas, TX - Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW)
Tonrtyo International Airport (NRT)
7A in flagship Business made for very comfortable trans-pacific flight. The reclining to lay flat option was amazing. FOOD... If they offer the "Japanese " dinner, unless you like sushi, that is what you receive. For the entire 13 hour flight, I was offered one drink, after which I had to go to the galley and request a beverage. A light meal of scrambled eggs, potatoes and a salad was served shortly before landing. The seating was great, service as lacking

Seat17A
FromNewark - Newark Liberty International (EWR)
ToCharlotte - Charlotte Douglas (CLT)
This was very much a not good experience. From bad airport to bad plane, leg room and comfort are okay but I am 5 ft tall. I feel bad for anyone taller than me. I guess everything is new and there are outlets but I can't get over how inefficient boarding was. First class was on par with United, just newer.

Seat5L
FromAmsterdam - Amsterdam-Schiphol (AMS)
ToPhiladelphia - Philadelphia International (PHL)

Business seat with no window. Has the feel of being stuck in a cupboard, with the wall on the right and the galley over the left shoulder. 5A the same in reverse.

Seat16A
FromPhoenix - Sky Harbor Intl (PHX)
ToAustin - Austin-bergstrom International (AUS)
Window seat with view of wing, minimal view of outside terrain. No recline and standard legroom. Seatbelt length and actual seat size are wide enough for the "average" person . Slightly uncomfortable for my 5'11, 180lbs frame but not too bad due to being a short flight.

Seat24b
FromPortland, OR - Portland International (PDX)
ToDetroit, MI - Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County (DTW)
Don't pick this seat if you are a bigger person or have wide hips. 24b doesn't have an arm rest that move so there is no relief to the pressure on your hips when flying. 24c has an arm rest that moves to help relieve the pressure but you'll be hit by everyone walking by :( It was a very uncomfortable flight. Perfect seats for a tall skinny person if you don't mind being near the lavatory. Lots of leg room.

Seat10A
FromLos Angeles - Los Angeles International (LAX)
ToDallas, TX - Dallas/Fort Worth International (DFW)

This is one of the planes that apparently used to have seat-back screens, but they're gone. This particular seat (10A) is sold as Main Cabin Extra, so there's an additional fee if you're not at least Gold. Had I paid that fee for this window seat, I'd be furious because there's no WINDOW. Seems like the kind of thing they could let a passenger know ahead of time... They did indicate that the seat doesn't recline, which is true.

Seat8F
FromBuffalo, NY - Buffalo Niagara International (BUF)
ToColorado Springs
After a miserable flight from COS to BUF (AA chg from 737 to A319..not my choice in rows 18 & 25A - so tight thought my knees wpuldn't move. A319 also had mechanical issues. Delayed over 1 hr. Upgraded seats to 8F bulkhead & 10 F to Colo Spgs from DFW. AGAIN..unk mechanical issue 2 hrs late. Bulkhead was ok but 10F perfect. Plenty legroom & tray. Just in both seats 4 hours a bit much. SWA always get a 737. Disabled folks need more room. SWA lets u preboard & choose for free. AA I paid plenty for comfort. Worth it 8 hts total on A319 "Baby Bus".
