On February 14, 2013, the following communication was made available to AAdvantage Business Partners.

Dear [NAME (AAdvantage Business Partner Contact)]:

As a valued partner of American Airlines, we wanted you to be among the first to know some exciting and historic news as American Airlines and US Airways announce plans to create a new American Airlines.

Over the past few months, we conducted an objective and thorough review of scenarios for the future of American and determined that this combination delivers the most value for our stakeholders and the best outcome for our customers and people. As a combined carrier – the new American – we will have an expanded network to even better match where our customers want to fly, a greater ability to invest in our fleet, modern technologies, and the products and services our customers value most, and as a long-standing partner of the AAdvantage® program, we aim to strengthen our partnership with you as we continue to work together in the future.

At this time, American and US Airways will remain separate companies and each company will maintain its current loyalty program – our AAdvantage program and US Airways Dividend Miles. Customers can rest assured that their AAdvantage miles are secure and existing miles will continue to be honored. Likewise, elite qualifying miles and elite status, including lifetime status granted under the Million MilerSM program is secure and remains intact. In addition, customers will continue to earn miles through existing AAdvantage participating companies and will be able to redeem those miles for the same great awards – flights, upgrades, car rentals and hotels just to name a few.

The AAdvantage program, including the elite program and its various facets such as lifetime status, upgrades, and bonus mileage, are intact, and our AAdvantage members will continue to enjoy unparalleled benefits through one of the largest and most popular loyalty programs in the world.

Ultimately, the combined company is expected to offer members more opportunities to earn and burn miles from an expanded global network of routes and partnerships, unmatched redemption options including flights, hotels, car rentals, vacation packages, one-way awards and lounge memberships, and much more.

The combined company will retain the iconic American Airlines brand, and together we plan to create a premier global carrier that provides customers with access to more choices and better service across a larger domestic and global network with more than 6,700 daily flights to 336 destinations in 56 countries. We will also continue to give our customers options for travel and benefits both domestically and internationally through continued membership in the oneworld® Alliance. As they do today, our oneworld partners will offer our customers access to a range of destinations, airline choices, and mileage earning and redemption opportunities.

We expect the transaction to close in the third quarter of 2013, subject to customary approvals and closing conditions, and will keep you updated throughout the process. In the interim, I invite you to visit www.aa.com/arriving for more information.


We remain committed to providing an exceptional travel experience with our customers positioned firmly at the center of everything we do. I would like to thank you for all of your support during this important time for American and I look forward to continuing to work with you to provide our customers with the benefits and choices they value most.

Sincerely,
