What American Airlines Group is
American Airlines Group is an American airline holding company, headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, that oversees American Airlines and US Airways. The airline group also operates several regional carriers including Envoy Air, Piedmont Airlines and PSA Airlines. It is the world’s largest airline when measured by fleet size and revenue.
A merger with US Airways.
American Airlines officially merged with US Airways on December 9, 2013. The merger was approved by the US Department of Justice on January 15, 2014 and by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) on April 23, 2014.
American Airlines’ plans to retire many of its oldest aircraft.
In the third quarter of 2018, American Airlines plans to retire many of its oldest aircraft. The airline has no intention of spending $4.5 billion on new planes, so it is retiring its oldest planes and replacing them with newer models.
The company’s fleet renewal plan includes more than 100 aircraft being retired by 2022 and another 250 by 2024, representing approximately 10% of its fleet at that point in time. Many of these are 737s flying shorter routes like those between New York and Washington DC or Chicago’s O’Hare airport; they were replaced by larger Boeing 737 MAX 8s earlier this year (2019). The process will begin later this month with two MD-80s: one which was previously operated as an AA Express carrier before being merged into mainline operations several years ago; another one leased from Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings Inc..
American Airlines owns several international carriers.
American Airlines owns several international carriers, including British Airways and Finnair. The company acquired a majority stake in Aer Lingus in 2012, which is the second largest airline in Ireland by traffic. American Airlines also has minority stakes in Japan Airlines (JAL), Qantas and Alitalia.
American also is a partner with Delta Blue, United Air and other carriers in the SkyTeam alliance.

American Airlines is one of the top five largest airlines in the world.
American Airlines is one of the top five largest airlines in the world. It is also the largest airline in the world in terms of fleet size, scheduled flights and revenue. Given that American Airlines flies to over 250 destinations across North America, Latin America, Europe and Asia/Pacific with its 678 planes (as of March 2019), it is no surprise that it has become a worldwide leader in aviation industry.
This is an example of a business model
The business model is a plan for how a company will operate in the future. It includes details like what products or services it will provide to customers, who those customers are and how they can be reached, what resources are needed to make those products or supply those services, and how the company makes money.*

Conclusion
That’s the company’s model, in a nutshell. The company recently announced that it would start selling “unbundled” fares for certain routes starting next year. This is a move to compete with other airlines who have already been offering them on their own flights. Still, this should not be seen as an indication of any major shift in how American operates its business model as there are no plans to change core components like fleet size or number of routes offered at present time – rather it just means they will offer more options when flying their planes.
