kag92 Posted January 4, 2013 #1 Share Posted January 4, 2013 We are going on a cruise out of new york. The best flight time for us is with American Airlines. What are your opinion on booking American since they are in a Chapter 11? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy100 Posted January 4, 2013 #2 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I think they are pretty sound. I would Book them without reservation..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted January 4, 2013 #3 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Most of the US airlines seem to go thru bankruptcy every now and then. It is just American's turn. Fly them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach1213 Posted January 4, 2013 #4 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I am Executive Platinum with AA. Fly them all the time. Already once this year, and countless times since Ch. 11. No issues whatsoever. If anything, my customer service has been better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues whatsoever. If anything, my customer service has been better. Me too (although I haven't flown this year yet.) I spent a lot of hours on AA in December and had great experiences wall-to-wall. When's your cruise? They'll probably be out of Ch. 11 pretty soon, maybe before you fly.

When's your cruise? They'll probably be out of Ch. 11 pretty soon, maybe before you fly. Let's just say I wish I hadn't flown them this year...what a waste of a trip. MCI-DFW-SAT-DFW-MCI for a 2-hour meeting. But service was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frugaltravel Posted January 4, 2013 #7 Share Posted January 4, 2013 maybe they will be out of chapter 11 before you fly. and maybe they will even have been bought by US Airways before you fly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenish Posted January 5, 2013 #8 Share Posted January 5, 2013 I've flown AA on 6 flights in the past 2 months. My experience is the same as Zach's- they have really hustled to be on-time and compared to a few years ago their service has noticeably improved and they are modernizing their fleet and cabins.
