Great in-flight addition with Woodford — excellent Kentucky bourbon! Now we just need AA to add Bookers in the Admirals Clubs …
Or JW Blue label in line with British Airways first, would be a welcome addition…
i had it on an AA flight last april. How is this new?
The date of the post is in April, so it isn’t new. It was new as of April, the very month you said you took the flight. 😉
