“We believe this new suite of premium products is a wise investment because it enables us to provide an added level of comfort and style to the inflight environment – a sentiment applauded by customers on international test flights earlier this month,” said Rob Friedman, American’s Vice President – Marketing.

“This initiative to further complement our premium customers’ travel experience is another example of our commitment to make American the airline of choice for global travelers.”

Customers traveling onboard American’s flights between the U.S. and London Heathrow are among the first to experience the new offerings.

First Class customers traveling onboard Boeing 777s between the U.S. and Heathrow will receive a quilted bed topper custom-designed to fit American’s  Flagship Suite, pyjamas and slippers as part of the airline’s new turndown service. A lightweight day blanket, new premium duvet and pillow, and an amenity kit featuring a bag with an authentic Eames Office® design pattern and containing Dermalogica® skincare products and other travel necessities complete the new suite of amenities.

“American is the first and only U.S. airline to offer pyjamas, slippers and a quilted bed topper as part of its turndown service – a step that better aligns us with our joint business and oneworld® Alliance partners,” added Friedman.

Also beginning Sept. 1, customers traveling in American’s Business Class cabin onboard flights between the U.S. and LHR operated by Boeing 777s, 767-300s and international 757s can enjoy a new premium duvet and pillow, slippers, and amenity kit, said the airline.
