Where American Airlines flies from

The airports American Airlines operates the most scheduled nonstop departures from.

American Airlines alliance partners

American Airlines is a member of OneWorld. Miles earned on American Airlines can usually be credited to, and redeemed with, these carriers — and an alliance itinerary is normally ticketed as one booking, so baggage is checked through and a missed connection is the airline's problem rather than yours.

American Airlines baggage allowance

On US carriers the allowance splits sharply between domestic and international travel.

Domestic economy fares generally do not include a checked bag — bags are paid for per item, per direction, and the price rises at the airport. Basic economy fares restrict things further and sometimes limit the cabin bag as well. Airline credit cards and elite status are the usual routes to a free checked bag domestically.

Long-haul international economy fares on the same airline normally do include a checked bag, with premium cabins allowing more. Because the two systems sit under one brand, the safe assumption is that a domestic connection on an international ticket follows the international rules — but only your booking confirmation confirms it.

American Airlines cabins

American Airlines sells multiple cabins on its long-haul aircraft, typically economy, a premium economy, and a lie-flat business class, with a first class on selected routes and aircraft. Cabin layout varies by aircraft type even on the same route, so the seat map attached to your specific flight is the one to check before choosing a seat.

American Airlines fleet

American Airlines operates Boeing 737-800, Boeing/McDonnell Douglas MD-83, Boeing/McDonnell Douglas MD-80, Boeing 757, Boeing 767-300, Boeing 777 on the routes in our data. Aircraft type varies by route and by day, and airlines swap equipment at short notice, so treat this as the typical fleet on this network rather than a guarantee for your flight.
