American posts record quarterly revenue

American Airlines Group posted record quarterly revenue of $14.1 billion in Q2.

It marks a 4.7% increase year over year.

It posted a net income of $1.3 billion on a GAAP basis with an operating margin of 15.4%.

Demand was especially high in June, driven by an increase in close-in bookings.

Domestic and short-haul international performed well, AA said.

“Our operation is performing at historically strong levels, and we have worked to refresh our fleet and build a comprehensive global network,” AA CEO Robert Isom said.

It ended the quarter with $14.9 billion of total available liquidity.

American and regional affiliates operated nearly 500,000 flights in the second quarter, with average load factor of 86%.

It operated its largest-ever mainline Memorial Day weekend schedule.

As of end-June, it reduced its total debt by around $9.4 billion from peak levels in mid-2021.
