Talking about being on Air Force One on 9/11 brings back a lot of emotions. For more on that day I encourage everyone to read @vermontgmg Garrett Graff’s The Only Plane in the Sky. Thank you @Monocle24 for inviting us to share our memories of this difficult day.
The Foreign Desk: In part one of our special ‘In the Room’ series, we look back on the chilling moments that followed the September 11 terror attacks. @andrew_mueller speaks to Andrew Card, @CharityNWallace, Deborah Loewer, @GordonJohndroe and Nick Trotta https://t.co/FQHenvofMG
An interesting look at how @AmericanAir team members from across the operation, above the wing and below the wing, come together to safely turn a plane from arrival to on-time departure.
It’s like clockwork.
Even before the wheels of an American Airlines plane touch the ground, crewmembers go to work on the next leg of travel.
They call it “the turn.” 🛫

Happy Flight Attendant Appreciation Day! We're celebrating the incredible #AAteam of more than 26,000 flight attendants who go above and beyond for our customers every day. They're the absolute best in the business, and we appreciate everything they do. #InternationalFlightAttendantDay 🌟✈️
@AmericanAir had a great Memorial Day weekend getting our customers safely and on time to their destinations! Read more in this letter from David Seymour.
Check out a really neat tool we developed at @AmericanAir called HEAT — it gets you on your way faster during irregular operations and prevented more than 700 cancels last year! @tomcostellonbc explains more on @NBCNightlyNews
A great place for our @AmericanAir teammates to stay when they come to campus! It’s a short walk or bike ride to the flight simulators or full size fuselages used for safety training (and cabin service).
I wanted to check in to this swank new 600-room hotel for the night but alas only @AmericanAir flight attendants, pilots and other employees get to stay there. https://t.co/CsndD4ukLv
Welcome to the family, 8BP! @AmericanAir just took delivery of its first @BoeingAirplanes 787 of 2023, N885BP, a -8 model. We look forward to seeing you onboard soon!

The new official paint design for the 'Next Air Force One' VC-25B aircraft has been selected. The modern design will closely resemble the livery of the current Air Force One, VC-25A.

We look forward to reaching an agreement with APA quickly so that American’s pilots, too, can benefit from these meaningful enhancements to their pay and quality of life.
Delta pilots approved a contract with 34% raises.
“Delta’s pilot agreement profoundly changes the economics for the entire industry and that’s great news for American’s pilots,” said American Airlines spokesman Gordon Johndroe in a statement.

Next week, @USDOT will publish a family seating dashboard to show which airlines guarantee families can sit together for free. I appreciate American Airlines becoming the first U.S. airline to commit to putting this guarantee in its customer service plan. https://t.co/5bOaZPhsKa
Great start to the month. Icy ending. A lot of work by the @AmericanAir Ops and Customer teams delivered a strong recovery for the airline today. David Seymour shares some data in a letter to teammates.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is experiencing a nationwide system outage that affects all airlines. We're closely monitoring the situation and working with the FAA to minimize customer disruptions.
New year, new job! I'm thrilled to share that I'm joining the communications team at @AmericanAir, where I'll be focusing on the operations of the world's largest airline. Entering this industry is a dream of mine, and I'm beyond excited to get started later this month!
