They definitely DO NOT offer Kosher food in First on shorter domestic flights, like LGA-MIA, or anything shorter.

They do offer Kosher food on the coast to coast flights (like JFK-LAX) in First -- not sure what the break point is for them.

No kosher in first class on American Eagle (e.g., LGA-ATL).
According to AA's website, kosher meals are available "In First and Business Classes on non-stop transcontinental flights in the U.S." Must "Order at least 24 hours prior to the flight."
On an upgrade as a Gold elite, the 24 hour cutoff makes it never technically possible to get kosher food.

They basically only offer it on nonstop JFK-LAX/SFO (perhaps also MIA-LAX). I tried getting one from ORD-LAX last year and they said it didn't qualify because it wasn't a transcon.

I'm pretty sure the LAX-JFK route they offer it in both J and F. I flew F recently on that route and the food was pretty bad.
