Delta and United have routes comparable to each other, with some reaching nearly half a billion. American is last in that comparison, and its best route is still outperformed by JetBlue. It's remarkable how far behind American is.

The JFK to LAX route is the last interesting to me. Getting smoked by DAL and beat by JBLU on a route that we are supposed to do well on; makes sense why the 321T will be going away for the XLR, it isn’t as profitable as I assumed.

It's earnings week at American!

Need a “Isom and Seymour’s excuses and misdirections” bingo card for the press conference

Revenue?

or Profit?

back to regular programming

Does it matter? AA is last in both.

Interesting analysis. So B6 retains a loyal following for transcons and makes Mint. Why aren't they profitable overall?

It also shows that while connecting hubs (CLT) are profitable the big money O&D traffic is still in those big nasty cities with high taxes that Vasu and the regional airline team don't like. The XLR (assuming they fit though the door or whatever the excuse for the delay is this week) will have more and nicer premium seating than the T models. Maybe we can scrape a few more million from those routes.

It’s time for a management team refresh, they must love being last

Would be nice if leadership cared that their employees hate coming to work. Or I'd settle for just acknowledgement that miserable employees make miserable customers.

Think they realize how much smoother everything would run if people enjoyed the culture?

American will never be competitive until management gets employees onboard with improving things.
