Hi everyone,

I’m new to post but have been reading the blog for a while. I am traveling to London in March and have the chance to use a relative’s system wide upgrade for my flight (I myself am Gold on AA). I’m based at ORD but don’t necessarily want to fly on the old business product so will make a connection. Would I be better off booking the 77W from JFK or the 333 from either PHL or CLT? Thanks for your help!

Hi everyone,

I’m new to post but have been reading the blog/forum for a while. I have a question regarding a future trip to London in mid-March. I have the chance to use a relative’s systemwide upgrade for my flight (I myself am Gold on AA…not sure if that helps my chances at all). I am based at ORD but would prefer not to fly the old business product so I will make a connection. Would I be better off at going for the 77W from JFK or the 333 from PHL or CLT? Thanks for your help!

Ben specifically discusses the JFK/ORD option to LHR.

333 all the way due to economy seat configuration. 2-4-2 works better than 3 4 3.
