    AMR CORPORATION REPORTS A FIRST QUARTER PROFIT OF $81
     MILLION, A $173 MILLION IMPROVEMENT YEAR OVER YEAR

   DESPITE WEATHER IMPACT, COMPANY CONTINUES MOMENTUM WITH
            FOURTH CONSECUTIVE PROFITABLE QUARTER

    AMR Strengthens Balance Sheet, Improves Liquidity and
     Continues to Reinvest in its Products and Services


     FORT WORTH, Texas - AMR Corporation, the parent company
of American Airlines, Inc., today reported a net profit of
$81 million for the first quarter of 2007, or $0.30 per
diluted share.
     The current quarter results compare to a net loss of
$92 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, in the first
quarter of 2006.
     "In spite of significant weather challenges, we
continued to build on our momentum by generating a profit in
the first quarter. This is our fourth consecutive profitable
quarter and the first time we have generated a profit in the
first quarter since 2000," said AMR Chairman and CEO Gerard
Arpey. "We strengthened our balance sheet and liquidity,
took a key step in our fleet renewal plan and reinvested in
our products and services. While we must continue to improve
our financial performance, we believe our results show that
we have started 2007 on the right track."
Operational Performance
     American's mainline passenger revenue per available
seat mile (unit revenue) increased by 4.5 percent in the
first quarter compared to the year-ago quarter. Mainline
capacity, or total available seat miles, in the first
quarter decreased 2.5 percent compared to the same period in
2006.
                         -- more --

     American's mainline load factor - or the percentage of
total seats filled - was a record 78.1 percent during the
first quarter, compared to 77.2 percent in the first quarter
of 2006. American's first-quarter yield, which represents
average fares, increased 3.3 percent compared to the first
quarter of 2006, its eighth consecutive quarter of year-over-
year yield increases.
     AMR reported first quarter consolidated revenues of
approximately $5.4 billion, an increase of 1.6 percent year
over year. AMR estimates that severe weather disruptions
reduced first quarter consolidated revenue by approximately
$60 million.
     American's mainline cost per available seat mile (unit
cost) in the first quarter was up 0.9 percent year over
year, which was 1.6 percentage points higher than originally
anticipated largely because of weather impacts that caused
American to cancel 2.9 percent of mainline scheduled
departures for the first quarter. Excluding fuel, mainline
unit costs in the first quarter increased by 2.2 percent
year over year.
Balance Sheet Improvement
     Arpey noted that AMR continued to strengthen its
balance sheet in the first quarter by reducing debt and
improving its liquidity position.
     AMR ended the first quarter with $5.9 billion in cash
and short-term investments, including a restricted balance
of $471 million, compared to a balance of $4.8 billion in
cash and short-term investments, including a restricted
balance of $510 million, at the end of the first quarter of
2006.
     AMR reduced Total Debt, which it defines as the
aggregate of its long-term debt, capital lease obligations,
the principal amount of airport facility tax-exempt bonds
and the present value of aircraft operating lease
obligations, to $17.5 billion at the end of the first
quarter of 2007, compared to $19.7 billion a year earlier.
AMR reduced Net Debt, which it defines as Total Debt less
unrestricted cash and short-term investments, from $15.4
billion at the end of the first quarter of 2006 to $12.2
billion in the first quarter of 2007.
     AMR contributed $62 million to its employees' defined
benefit pension plans in the first quarter and made an
additional $118 million contribution on April 13, as the
Company continues to meet this important commitment to its
employees.
     "As we continue to execute on our Turnaround Plan, we
are seeking to strike the right balance between reinvestment
in the business and the need for further financial

                         -- more --
improvement," Arpey said. "We have more hard work ahead of
us, but we believe that we have the right strategy in place
to continue building our company for the long term and to
continue delivering benefits to shareholders, customers and
employees."

First Quarter Highlights
-    American announced that it had notified Boeing of its
     intent to begin pulling forward deliveries of 47 737-800
     aircraft to replace a portion of its MD-80 fleet, with the
     first three aircraft scheduled for delivery in early 2009.
     Arpey cited the fleet renewal announcement as a key step
     toward American's goal of improving fleet fuel efficiency by
     more than 20 percent by 2020.
-    American announced that it would invest up to $100
     million in facility, technology and process improvements to
     help its Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) business
     compete for more third-party maintenance contracts.
     American's MRO business generated nearly $95 million in
     third-party revenue in 2006.
-    AMR continued to improve its balance sheet by paying
     down the $285 million balance on its revolving credit
     facility and by prepaying $79 million in aircraft debt. In
     April, the Company also completed the refinancing of $350
     million of tax-exempt bonds. These actions are expected to
     eliminate approximately $15 million in annual net interest
     expense for the Company.
-    AMR improved its financial strength by selling 13
     million new shares of common stock to raise nearly $500
     million.
-    AMR was honored by PLANSPONSOR Magazine as Corporate
     Plan Sponsor of the Year for the Company's efforts to
     protect and preserve its employees' defined benefit pension
     plans. In addition to contributing more than $1.5 billion to
     its employees' defined benefit pension plans since 2002, the
     Company expects to contribute $364 million to these plans in
     2007. Through April 13, AMR had made $180 million of its
     expected 2007 contributions.
-    AMR began to accrue for a potential profit sharing
     payout to employees for the 2007 year, payable in 2008.
     There can be no assurance that the Company's forecast will
     approximate actual results, which are dependent upon many
     factors, including fuel prices and economic and industry
     conditions.

                         -- more --
-    American launched an initiative to become the clear
     airline of choice for passengers in the New York
     market, with its commitment demonstrated by additional
     routes, enhanced offers and promotions.
-    American launched a new online booking tool on AA.com
     that makes it easier and more convenient for AAdvantage
     program members to redeem earned miles for travel.
-    American announced that it began installing new
     personal video and audio entertainment devices in Business
     Class cabins on its 58 Boeing 767-300 aircraft.

Guidance for the Second Quarter and 2007
     Mainline and Consolidated Capacity
     AMR expects its full-year mainline capacity to decrease
by 1.8 percent in 2007 compared to 2006, with a 2.0 percent
reduction in domestic capacity and a 0.9 percent decrease in
international capacity.  On a consolidated basis, AMR
expects full-year capacity to decrease by 1.5 percent in
2007 compared to 2006.  The impact of weather-related
cancellations that occurred in the first quarter is included
in mainline and consolidated capacity forecasts for 2007.
     AMR expects mainline capacity in the second quarter of
2007 to decrease by 3.1 percent year over year. It expects
consolidated capacity to decrease by 2.9 percent in the
second quarter of 2007 compared to the prior-year period.
     Fuel Expense and Hedging
     While the cost of jet fuel remains volatile, as of now
AMR is planning for an average system price of $2.09 per
gallon in the second quarter and $2.09 per gallon for all of
2007. AMR has 34 percent of its anticipated second quarter
fuel consumption capped at an average crude equivalent of
$65 per barrel (jet fuel equivalent of $2.04 per gallon),
with 26 percent of its anticipated full-year consumption
capped at an average crude equivalent of $63 per barrel (jet
fuel equivalent of $1.96 per gallon). Consolidated
consumption for the second quarter is expected to be 791
million gallons of jet fuel.
     Mainline and Consolidated Unit Costs
     AMR continues to target $300 million in incremental
savings for 2007. It expects mainline unit costs excluding
fuel to be 1.1 percent higher in 2007 versus 2006 while 2007
consolidated unit costs excluding fuel are expected to
increase 1.6 percent year over year.
                         -- more --
     In the second quarter, mainline unit costs excluding
fuel are expected to increase 2.8 percent year over year
while consolidated unit costs excluding fuel are expected to
increase 3.1 percent from the second quarter of 2006.
     Following the weather impact in the first quarter, full-
year mainline unit costs are expected to increase 1.6
percent in 2007 compared to 2006, while full-year
consolidated unit costs are expected to increase 2.0 percent
in 2007 compared to 2006.
     For the second quarter, mainline unit costs are
expected to increase 2.1 percent compared to the second
quarter of 2006, while second quarter consolidated unit
costs are expected to increase 2.1 percent compared to the
second quarter of 2006.
