Perhaps the beginning of the rumored 757 subfleet? They could follow the Ireland service model, and sell all-Y, while giving elites the chance to snag a domestic F seat.
When they introduce the new J seat, AA could at that point swap out for a "new" (at least in configuration) 757.

Tomorrow is the dedication for the new JFK terminal (not the opening, just the dedication). I've been informed that Aprey and Mayor Bloomberg will be in attendance. Wouldn't be surprised to see this announced then.

certainly a very interesting option, and would take traffic away from BA s great to avoid the LHR terminal shuffle/connection nightmare. let's see if it really happens.

I guess AA is in a race with CO to see who can find the smallest airports in europe to serve. What's next St. Neots?

not sure what they have nowadays. BT had their annual meeting there once.
presumably this would be 757 service, as BOS-SNN/MAN.
