When a passenger sits on the armrest...
This is not an AA interior or aircraft - regionals are separate companies.
This is Speed Tape, an FAA approved pressure sensitive tape for temporary repairs - it costs $16,700/pack. This temporary patch kept your flight on time and safe.
You're welcome.

The Jeju pilots got their aircraft down minutes after declaring Mayday. They put it down hot, right on the centerline - then an uncharted solid barrier disintegrated them in the overrun.

Let's wait and see what crisis/failures they were dealing with before crucifying them. RIP 💔

When you get to party with astronaut Frank Culbertson, the only American not on the planet on 9/11.
9/11 is our past in this great country… and always the present. The unity we all felt is the most significant part the history.

Ann may need to have a talk with that fueler. 😐
Who can tell me why this may be a very short flight?

For any friends with nothing to do today - I'll be signing books from 12-4 at the Smithsonian Udvar Hazy Air & Space Center.
It's a super fun place to spend a beautiful Sunday! ✈️🩵
