UPDATE: We’re on the plane to Buffalo!!! American Airlines was incredibly helpful and made it possible for us to get on this flight. A special thank you to @JJWatt for organizing it while we were in the air to Dallas. Big thanks as well to everyone else who offered their help.🙏

For nearly 7 years there have been no direct commercial flights between the U.S. and Venezuela. Under President Trump we're changing that today. Flights between Miami and Caracas restored.

We’ve been waiting for a moment like this. 💯🎉 To celebrate our 100th anniversary, American trading cards are taking flight. Starting soon, pilots will be sharing collectible cards featuring some of the aircraft from our current fleet, plus special centennial editions honoring iconic planes like the DC‑3, 707 and MD‑80. Each card includes aircraft specs, diagrams and fascinating facts that make every flight a little more memorable. Flying with us this summer? Ask your pilot and start collecting. ✈️

What happened at DCA yesterday was not a near miss and not classified under @FAANews NMAC system. Separation was maintained at all times. Let’s not conflate a very serious incident (Midway) with a standard practice

One of the greats – the Boeing 707 – made history today in 1959, when it flew American Airlines first transcontinental jet passenger route in a record-breaking 4-hour flight from Los Angeles to New York. One of the passengers was 89-year-old Gilbert Wright who made his first trip west from Illinois to California by train in 1883 (which took seven days and seven nights!). Sometimes, things seem long ago, but our connections to the past are often quite close.

We mourn the passing of Bette Nash, who spent nearly seven decades warmly caring for our customers in the air. She started in 1957 and held the Guinness World Record for longest-serving flight attendant. Bette inspired generations of flight attendants. Fly high, Bette.

.@AmericanAir COO: “Nothing is more important than safety. While I am confident we’ll run both a safe and a reliable operation, if you see something that doesn’t look right, you need to say something, and more importantly, you need to do something”
