First-quarter revenue of $13.9 billion
First-quarter GAAP net loss of $382 million, or ($0.58) per diluted share
Ended the quarter with total debt of $34.7 billion
Second-quarter adjusted EPS3 expected to be between ($0.20) and $0.20. Based on the forward fuel curve and the current revenue outlook, the midpoint of the full-year guidance is expected to be approximately flat to 2025, despite a greater than $4 billion increase in expense related to higher prices for jet fuel

What exactly is AA second to none in? Mishandled baggage? Involuntary Denied Boardings? Regional Jets? Overall mediocrity?
In that same interview, Isom seems to say that American is the only U.S. airline to offer international lie-flat seats.
Interviewer: All three major airlines are now 100 years old. How does it feel to be a part of that group, and what does that say about longevity in a volatile industry?
Robert Isom: It’s a competitive industry and in that industry I think that we’re second to none. But I think it speaks to those assets that were developed over time. American Airlines has a fantastic set of assets, really underscored by our hubs, furthered by the relationships that we build to get people to wherever they want to go in the world.

Interviewer: It feels like every big airline has their own new premium product to roll out. And I know that’s a big part of American’s vision: to reclaim the mantle of premium global airline. What else do you envision as things you’re going (to) accomplish to bring the airline back?
Robert Isom: What I’d like to first say is that premium products aren’t new to us. Whether it comes to lie-flat, seats in business class or the only airline that offers a true lie-flat international experience. Of course, customers are going to want more in the places that they want to fly and we’re going to offer it to them.

He also stated in the last earnings AA will have more international growth in 2026 than DL/UA combined. What he forgot to mention was the international growth will be with almost all A321’s. They just love taking a route and making it high CASM—industry leading CASM, second to none.
