- Oct 03, 2019 American Airlines Flagship Business – At The Airport At Heathrow Terminal 3, American Airlines operates an Admirals Club – thus I could not enter the British Airways First Class Lounge in the same terminal. Unfortunately the lounge was packed, so I could not take pictures in there.
The American Airlines Flagship Lounge at Dallas-Ft. Worth airport offers Business Class and elite customers an elevated dining experience and world-class amenities, though the lounge is bound to be busy. The few eligible First Class customers will find a much more exclusive environment in the elegant confines of the Flagship First Dining area. FORT WORTH, Texas — Each year, a dedicated team of wine experts carefully reviews nearly 2,000 bottles to select those that will join the award-winning American Airlines wine program. For the first time ever, anyone 21 years or older can sit back, relax and enjoy these premium wines by having them delivered straight to their door with American’s new Flagship® Cellars at-home.
Airlines are still operating only a fraction of the number of flights they offered pre-pandemic, and alcohol is banned in many cabins to help thwart the spread of Covid-19. This is adding up to a lot of leftover booze. Now, American Airlines is hoping to sell and ship some of its excess wine directly to peoples' homes.

The company said Thursday that a new program — called American Airlines Flagship Cellars — will give customers a chance to buy wine by the bottle, in custom 'curated' cases, or via a monthly subscription plan that costs $99 per month.
American Airlines' single-bottle wine offerings range in price from about $13 to $40, and the most expensive offering is a $300 three-pack of Champagne.
Purchasing the $99 monthly subscription gives customers access to discounted prices, a monthly shipment of three bottles of wines, and customers will rack up two AAdvantage Miles for every dollar spent.

The wine bottles are among those that would have been served to customers with American Airlines' 'Flagship' tickets, a luxury seating option on international and transcontinental flights.
The coronavirus pandemic has battered the travel industry, leaving dozens of planes grounded and international travel greatly reduced. American is among several airlines that have also suspended in-flight alcohol sales to minimize the amount of time flight attendants have to interact with customers in the Covid-19 era. American posted a net loss of $3.6 billion in its latest earnings report, and wine sales aren't expected to make much of a dent in its losses.

The company hopes its new at-home wine program will bring in about $40,000 to $50,000 in sales during the first three months of the year, an American Airlines spokesperson said in an email, citing the company's chief customer officer, Alison Taylor.
But the short-term prospect of bringing in money from grounded wine bottles isn't the only consideration.
'Though revenue is important, Flagship Cellars is moreso a way of engaging with customers, even when they are not traveling with us,' a spokesperson said via email.

'It also gives them a taste of what you can enjoy in Flagship First or Flagship Business,' the spokesperson said.
