American Airlines
"As Miami’s hometown airline, American has been a proud sponsor of the SOBEWFF® for over 15 years. This year, we took our participation to the next level by bringing in the celebrated James Beard Foundation chef partners featured in the Los Angeles, Chicago and Miami Flagship® Lounges and our chef partner in the American Airlines and British Airways Joint Premium Lounges at John F. Kennedy International Airport to highlight the talent and exceptional food offerings found in those premium lounges…what better place to promote that than at SOBEWFF®! In addition, American had its Wine Expert, Julia Coney, preview some of the wines that began flying in April 2024. This Festival was a great opportunity to bring our partners together and create a unique experience for our AAdvantage® members while showcasing the elevated culinary options in our premium lounges and in flight." - Griffin Gonzalez, Director, Partnerships & Community
