A lot has happened since American and US Airways first announced their merger in February 2013, which has made them the world's largest airline. If you were loyal to either airline, you're likely familiar with just about every major milestone of the merger, given that it impacted the passenger experience. These steps included the merger…

Agreed. Update the interiors. The U.S. Airways livery has meant an older interior.
Ben there was one next to our plane as we arrived at "the eagles nest" here in LAX.. it caught me off guard to see it actually
Good luck getting an upgrade on the US Airways 757s they only have 12 seats versus 24 on some of the American 757s.
Hey Ben, quick award question.
I'm trying to book a business class award from Europe to the US with American miles. I was thinking of this routing: CDG-LHR-JFK-LAX-PDX and it comes out to 57.5k miles but then I thought about making it better and routing ....JFK-YVR (CX) -PDX but when I just enter Europe to Canada it's coming back 62.5k miles.
So my question is if I route through Canada from jfk but then come back into the us am I going to be charged the 57.5k miles or 62.5k?
Ps hope you had an enjoyable thanksgiving
What? No US Airways heritage livery. Also we'd be a lot happier if you just got the LUS interiors out.
@Hugh B: An A321 - N578UW is painted in US Airways heritage livery:
It's been a race to the bottom for Doug Parker et. al. with USAirways dba American Airlines. Why is anyone surprised? It's not like he didn't have a track record in the industry.
Why doesn't AA fly many of the MD's out to us in Phoenix? I've taken an MD a few times from MSP to PHX, but I haven't seen an AA MD parked at the gate.
Total side note. Delta now flies an A333 between ATL and PHX once a day (#1772 & #1244). I thought DL.com had it listed wrong but nope, I saw it parked at T3.
Caleb, yup, I noticed that 333 earlier this month. I wanted to SDC to it but couldn't confirm in F and figured I'd stick with my existing 753 flight. I was surprised how full the 333 appeared to be based upon the seat map.
DL wide bodies are a common sight to/from PHX in the winter. Especially from MSP. #snowbirds
I don't know where you got this info, but I saw two LUS painted airbuses today arriving within 5 minutes of one another, perhaps there are multiple "heritage" liveries?
