American Eagle E175 Main Cabin Extra | Sarasota to Washington DC

Traveling from Sarasota up to DC onboard an American Eagle Embraer 175 operated by Republic Airways. For this flight I sat in the first row of economy right behind the solo column of first class seats. There is tons of legroom in this row. After pushing back, we taxied out to the runway where we departed to the Northwest before making a right turn over Sarasota Bay. This was my first American Airlines/Eagle flight with the new free WiFi onboard, which was definitely a nice option. The flight went by relatively smoothly as we made our way up to DC. #americanairlines #embraer175 #economyclass #tripreport ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Airline: American Eagle (Republic) Aircraft: Embraer 175 Tail Number: N104HQ Flight Number: AA 4417 Route: SRQ to DCA Seat: 8A (Economy Class - Main Cabin Extra) Date: February 16, 2026 Equipment: iPhone 15 Pro Max ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Chapters: 00:00 - Gate & Aircraft 00:37 - Boarding & Seat 01:20 - Pushback 01:31 - Engine Start 02:31 - Heading to the runway 04:10 - Takeoff 07:17 - Captain Announcement 07:54 - Snack Service 08:19 - Visiting the lavatory 08:40 - Power Socket & trying out WiFi 09:34 - Flightradar24 09:53 - Captain announcement 12:58 - Landing 14:27 - Pulling into the gate 15:06 - De Planing
