On January 22, 2007, AMR Corporation (AMR), the parent company of
American  Airlines, Inc., entered into an Underwriting  Agreement
(the  Underwriting Agreement) with Credit Suisse Securities (USA)
LLC,  acting on behalf of itself and the other underwriters named

13,000,000 shares (the 1/22/07 Shares) of AMR's common stock, par
value $1.00 per share (the Common Stock), at an offering price to
the public of $38.70 per share.  AMR has granted the Underwriters
a  30-day  option to purchase an additional 1,950,000  shares  of
Common  Stock (together with the 1/22/07 Shares, the Shares),  at
the  same price per share paid to AMR for the 1/22/07 Shares,  to
cover  over-allotments,  if any.  The closing  of  the  offering,
which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected  to
occur on January 26, 2007.

The  Shares  will be issued pursuant to AMR's shelf  registration
