AMR Corporation is a commercial aviation business and airline holding company based in Fort Worth, Texas, United States. Formed in 1982, as part of American Airlines's non-bankruptcy reorganization into a Delaware corporation, its name derives from American Airlines's ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange. In addition to American Airlines, AMR owns TWA Airlines LLC, and regional airlines American Eagle Airlines, successor to Simmons Airlines, and Executive Airlines by way of AMR Eagle Holdings Corporation. Chautauqua Airlines flown in conjunction with American Airlines marketing... brand, known as AmericanConnection, are independent of AMR Corporation's divisions and subsidiaries, but do operate in conjunction with them in order to provide seamless connections to AMR's two principal airline holdings. AMR's and AA's Chairman, President, and CEO is Thomas W. Horton. On 29 November 2011, AMR Corporation filed for Chapter 11 reorganization bankruptcy. The Air Transport Association group said that unofficial research states that AMR was the 100th airline company to go into bankruptcy protection since 1990.
