American Airlines B737 departure from Los Angeles

Welcome aboard American Airlines flight 244 with service to Orlando! This B737-800 is now seen departing Los Angeles (LAX)! Flight time was 4 hrs & 50 min. I am not a fan of AA but there price was good and the departure time worked best for us. On this aircraft there are power ports but with my luck they did not work in my row! Besides that the flight was great! The flight crew was very nice and they came around multiple times during the flight offering complimentary drinks and snacks for sale. Enjoy the video!

Interesting story:
As usual I went into the cockpit and talked to the pilot and got some nice pictures :) My mother was out side with the first officer and she was telling him how I want to fly commercial aircraft one day. He said "You should talk your son out of it. It is not worth it. It took me 10 years to get where I am now & we don't make much money. My friend drives a truck for a major retail store and only makes $8,000 less them me." An In-Flight crew member then said "You should always go for your dreams". That just blew my mind when my mother told me that! How can you tell a kid wanting to fly one day that?! I lost all respect for that man. As we exited the plane he said "have a nice day" to me and I looked him in the eye and shook my head and walked off the plane. That man right there should not be flying. If he thinks it is not worth it then why did he do it in the first place? I think he is a little crazy! Of course it is going to take a long time for you to get where you are now! They are not going to let you go to school for a year then pilot a plane with 150+ people in it! I can understand tho, after spending thousands on flight school and taking years to get where he is now, he would expect more money out of it. I just did not expect him to be so blunt about it.

@TheLiLD95 It's more than 5hrs of fuel considering contingency, reserves and diversion fuel. I say we are looking on about 6hrs and 40mins of fuel there

@gutierrezcu It was an object used to sit in, but that's not important now.
