FREE Admirals Club and In-Flight Food during Thanksgiving Week (some airports/routes)

From the attached article:

In an effort to publicize its new Zephyr sedan, Lincoln will sponsor complimentary "Dinner and a Movie" offerings on select transcontinental American flights, neck and shoulder massages at both New York's LaGuardia and Dallas/Fort Worth Airports, and free buffets at seven select American Airlines Admiral's Clubs, in the days leading up to Thanksgiving.

I don't consider it valuable at all, unless we knew what clubs were involved. The article says nothing about that, and apparently there is no information about it on AA.com, either.

I suspect that information is forthcoming.

Well, if they call a snack box "dinner", what is a buffet? Two cheese trays instead of one maybe?

Grrrr, I'm flying into DEN, but I think the AC is closed by the time my LAX flight gets in.

What a nice promotion! I need to book a ticket and get a day pass to the AC so I can participate in the buffett. ^

Woohoo! I'm flying through St. Louis on the 20th. This will be a very nice treat!

Its an interesting set of Admiral's Club locations, though... I guess it would be too much to hope that DFW, ORD, or LAX would get complimentary buffet.

DFW, ORD, LAX, and probably MIA would be too much to hope for with a free buffett. Perhaps AA is trying to use this as a marketing tool? Maybe they targeted those locations for specific reasons?
