American Airlines does not permit passengers to purchase an extra seat specifically for their pets, unlike JetBlue. However, passengers can still buy an additional seat for themselves, which some have reportedly used as a workaround.

In related news from the aviation sector:

A Reddit post from the American Airlines community highlighted a passenger's dissatisfaction with United Airlines after being served pork in a vegetarian meal. The user @palmssounds tweeted on July 20, 2024: "Shoutout @united for serving me pork with my vegetarian meal. Glad I found it after I finished. Great work."

Meanwhile, the old Etihad lounge at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is set to be converted into a Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse. At 4,401 square feet, the lounge is relatively small and lacks scenic views.

Additionally, Citi ThankYou points can now be transferred directly into Virgin Red. Previously, transfers were only possible to Virgin Atlantic Flying Club. This change simplifies the process for those seeking non-flight redemptions.

Lastly, Turkish Airlines has announced new business class suites are forthcoming.
