Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) documented the state of her American Airlines flight on Monday, which prompted a response from the airline.

Cammack was traveling on a direct flight to Washington, D.C., to continue her work on Capitol Hill. The representative photographed an armrest covered in tinfoil on her flight.

“Come on @AmericanAir…. Aluminum foil for real?!? This flight to D.C. ought to be interesting…,” Cammack captioned the photo.

The airline responded on X within the hour that Cammack posted the photo.

“Keeping our planes in top-notch shape is always the goal. We appreciate you sharing these concerns to us. When you have a moment, kindly join us in [direct message] with your confirmation trip code and flight details,” American Airlines responded.

American Airlines is the largest airline globally, flying over 2.1 million flights last year and continuing to add international routes.

Earlier this year, an American Airlines plane collided with a Black Hawk helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. All passengers aboard both aircraft died. The recovery of the passengers’ bodies and the extraction of the aircraft took several days.
