Earlier today I was at LAX to check out the new American Airlines (AA) 787-9P. The “P” stands for Premium, and this beautiful bird launched today with Chicago (ORD) to Los Angeles (LAX) to ORD and then on to London Heathrow’s (LHR) before it returns to ORD to start the merry-go-round again.

Later in the year, they will also be flying it from Philadelphia to Zurich and Dallas to Brisbane and Auckland.

Bennett recently returned home after spending 71 days detained in the Dominican Republic, where he was falsely accused of drug trafficking.
