Back in April, I wrote about My Experience Flying Onboard US Airways Since the Recent Merger<\/a>. The flight from Charlotte to Los Angeles (CLT-LAX) was five and a half hours long and departed in the evening. This was basically a transcontinental flight on an Airbus A321.<\/p>\n

First Class on the A321 was in a 2-2 configuration. I was disappointed that there weren\u2019t any angled flat or lie flat seats on this route, but I wasn\u2019t having high expectations flying on US Airways to begin with.<\/p>\n

\"UScltlax1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The flight attendant asked what I would like to drink as a pre-departure beverage and when he mentioned beer, I said \u201cWhat kind do you have?\u201d He mentioned Dos Equis, so I had one of those in a can.<\/p>\n

\"UScltlax2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

After the plane reached cruising altitude, the flight attendant offered a bottle of water and took my drink order. As always, I ordered a cranberry vodka with lime which was refreshing. I was surprised there weren\u2019t any hot nuts served to accompany my beverage.<\/p>\n

\"UScltlax3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Afterwards, the flight attendant came through the cabin and offered a hot wet towel.<\/p>\n

\"UScltlax4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Meal service began and I had the beef entr\u00e9e which basically came all in one serving tray. Dinner consisted of a chicken appetizer with corn salsa, salad, bread, and beef with veggies and mashed potatoes. The food was surprisingly good and flavorful.<\/p>\n

\"UScltlax5\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dessert was a salted caramel cheesecake which was pretty good. I wish US Airways had made to order ice cream sundaes, but one can dream.<\/p>\n

\"UScltlax6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

An hour before arrival, the flight attendant came by with the dreaded snack basket.<\/p>\n

\"USmiaclt2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Towards the end of the flight, the flight attendant hawked the 40,000 mile US Airways credit card. I really dislike the whole credit card hawking onboard a flight, but I do understand that it\u2019s part of their job. Overall, the US Airways employees I encountered were very nice and hospitable despite the offerings not being on par with transcontinental flights on American Airlines.<\/p>\n
