American Airlines to deploy 777s between New York and Los Angeles, with Premium Economy
It seems that American Airlines is changing up its New York to LA route, with plans to operate widebody aircraft on this route. This is being introduced under the pretence of the introduction of Premium Economy seating on this route. Thus, on this route, Business, Premium and Main Cabin (with Main Cabin Extra) will be offered. As such, the First Class service that was offered before will be dropped, with the Airbus A321T dropped. This is before the Airbus A321XLRs are due to be delivered to American (which will feature a three-class cabin too). Reading around, it

Review: A Total Shambles In American Boeing 777-300ER Business Class
Note: scores are based on the best possible experience found on any airline, for which the best airline would get a 100 in that category. I’m going to “go there” right from the beginning. This flight was the business class equivalent of the Fyre festival. It was a total shambles masquerading as something much better, and of course, charging accordingly. Some flights are perfectly unremarkable, others flight simply mediocre, but this flight was remarkable for being such a complete and utter failure.
