Let's see if they merge with United.... Would be super bummed if they do.

If you take CLT as a test case, it’s American’s 2nd
largest hub. I have no idea how many daily flights they have. It’s a bunch. I did hear news on this afternoon that United averages 15 flights out of CLT a day. Sounds like table scraps for AA. ** Edited by PhotoHokieNC at 4/15/2026, 4:07:07 PM

American is the crappiest of the major airlines.
Still no video screens when Delta has had them for nearly 20 years. And a terrible on-time rate plus being the worst abuser of the rolling delay.

I just flew roundtrip with American to Anguilla and was early each leg!

I typically fly Delta or AA with a little bit of United when I fly north.
It means less competition, so I'd prefer them trying to fight for my flights vs having a duopoly with Delta.

Maybe but it's a tight race
