For travelers who prefer to fly in the lap of luxury, American Airlines is expanding its exclusive Five Star Service options for its top customers traveling through Los Angeles and New York City.
The new and improved Five Star Service options at Los Angeles International Airport and John F. Kennedy International Airport include off-terminal entrance, a private screening service, access to private suites and an effortless travel experience with Blade, a digitally powered aviation company.

The American Airlines Five Star Service is a premium and personal airport experience available for departures, connections or arrivals in select markets. The added luxury travel options are available for customers purchasing Five Star Service or Five Star Select, an elevated Five Star Service experience with access to Flagship Lounge and Flagship First Dining.
“We understand the value our customers put on their time and a personalized end-to-end travel experience — whether it is a private travel experience, a little more luxury, fine dining in the airport or getting to the gate quickly, we have them covered,” American vice president Janelle Anderson said in a statement. “This gives our customers a range of choices when traveling on American.”
One of the most significant problems when trying to arrive at the airport in Los Angeles or New York City is the traffic. American has travelers covered with its private helicopter transfers provided by Blade.
When traveling with Blade, customers will be picked up in the city at a destination of their choice and flown to LAX or JFK where they’ll be greeted by an American Airlines team member and escorted via Cadillac to Flagship First Check-In.
After clearing security, customers can spend their extra time relaxing or working in the Admirals Club, Flagship Lounge or Flagship First Dining before their flight. Blade service is also available for arriving customers.
