Another reminder at how American-based airlines are nothing but profiteering cheapskates.<p>I recently flew internationally with SwissAir and was blown away by both planes' service, entertainment options and comfort, all in economy.<p>A year or so ago, I flew AA to Europe, and it was one of the most uncomfortable experience ever. The food was shit, the service was nonexistent, the seats were from the 1990s and the entertainment was allocated to one screen on the ceiling playing reruns of unpopular ABC shows. Not to mention the ticket was nearly $900 ... for economy.
