The passport line was so long that many of us were concerned about missing our flight and some did. It would've helped if a AA representative had gone to the passport check-in sooner to advise that boarding was closing and those flying that were stuck back in the line, needed to come forward with apologies to others. An AA representative did do that but only after boarding had already closed. (They delayed take-off so that more who were running with carry-ons could get to the gate - especially stressful for older people!) Then to be crammed into a seat with barely enough leg room for a thin woman, 5'7", like me, much less for a taller, bigger person was not comfortable, especially if the person in front decided to lean back. Crew was fine, food and entertainment also.

It is okay. Flight was on time to start and early to land

Boarding was a shambles, pushed us all onto the airbridge and then made us wait for ages

Pilot kept the seatbelt light off for almost the entire flight, so bathroom visits were well spread out. Yes, it was a very smooth ride, but I have been on transatlantic flights where the seatbelt light was almost perpetually on, even though no turbulence. Pickup of meal trays and trash was exceptionally fast and frequent.

Overall it was good but not great. The aircraft was an old and seats didn’t recline in business class unless you kept playing around with it.

Food was terrible. Flight attendants OK. Only saw them at food service. Other than that they paid no attention to the passengers at all.

The plane was subbed for another last minute, the gate was changed last minute. Could live with that but we boarded and there was a delay which totaled an hour in the end. There was a technical issue which meant wheels needed to remain out for ten mins after take off. My USB phone charger was broken as was the headphone jack which meant I could t enjoy the IFE and could use my phone after a few hours. Even the map function on the plane failed to work after a few hours.

Had an hour delay due to mechanical/safety; so we missed our connection in Dallas. Got home later than planned but safely and that is appreciated.

Standby for us - as travelers with mobility issues - was inefficient and not responsive to our needs. Crew seemed disinterested and disaffected - just going through the necessary motions. Food snack (chicken wrap) was awful to the point of wrenching it up a few hours later.

Connection via Dallas was dodgy. It takes a long time to clear one terminal and check through into another. Allow at least 2.5 hours between plane times, maybe 3.
