i am so happy igot the opportunity to fly on the a300 Pan Am and AA and i also worked for both carriers i remember when they were delivered from France brand spanking new but say no more AA has ordered 240 a320's and 200 Boeing 737
in an effort to replace their fleet with fuel efficent aircraft Yahoo!!!!!!!
Its good they got rid of this plane. It is outdated and very old. Just look at the monitors on top. American airlines is still a very bad airline but atleast they moved a small step forward by retiring the A300.
@TheWarPlanet If you want to see tired, old, AA jets, step on a 757. Same monitors. Dirty and they stink. Some still airborne from 1989. I hate American.
You people can still fly on Thai airways' A300's. They still have like 30+ roundtrip flights each day to various locations! I'm going to get to go on one in March. It'll be my first (hopefully not, but probably last) flight on an A300. I'm so excited.
If only I had one chance to sit inside the cabins of AA's A300s then. Nonetheless now, the only option to enjoy them now is through Microsoft Flight Simulator.
@pk33617 OK, well by "major US airline," I meant the big legacy airlines like United, Delta, and American, those that were big airlines even before the 1978 airline deregulation. Yes, I guess you could say that Southwest is a major US airline, but it's not a legacy carrier.
And yes, Southwest does have an all-Boeing fleet (So does Alaska Air)
were tacos and burritos served on the flight. a non-english speaking food.

@compdude100 I think you are forgetting your "#1 favorite airline," Southwest. All Boeing

More people should have cared. It's a shame that everybody just wanted to get to Miami. Personally I really liked the a300

Nobody spoke english on the flight, they really didn't care, even at the gate (except they were first in line for all the food!).

It's too bad most of the passengers didn't give a damn and just wanted to get to Miami ASAP. RIP American Airlines A300.
