American Airlines, Inc., operating as American Airlines (AA), is a major U.S. airline and a subsidiary of AMR Corporation. It is headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, adjacent to its largest hub at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. American Airlines operates an extensive international and domestic network. Its name notwithstanding, American is not a flag carrier.
American Airways was developed from a conglomeration of 82 small airlines through acquisitions in 1930. In 1934, American Airways Company was acquired by E.L. Cord, who renamed it American Air Lines. American Airlines was the first to cooperate with Fiorello LaGuardia to build an airport in New York City. After World War II, American acquired American Export Airlines, renaming it as American Overseas Airways, to serve Europe. AOA was sold to Pan Am in 1950. By 1970, American Airlines was offering its first long haul international flights. In 1999, American Airlines, together with British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Canadian Airlines and Qantas, founded the global airline alliance Oneworld.
American Airlines began losing money in the economic downturn that followed the September 11, 2001 attacks (in which two of its planes were destroyed).
