» Tom Horton Shares May’s Operating Report

In a Special Jetwire issued yesterday, Tom Horton discussed the company’s May financial results. “Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our entire team, we earned a $65 million monthly net profit, a $197 million improvement from May of last year. And we expect to report a strong, profitable second quarter – our first since 2007,” Tom said. “We continue to advance


our international business – adding new aircraft, enhancing alliance partnerships, strengthening our existing network and seeking out new destinations. The renewal of our fleet continues at a rapid clip. So far we have taken delivery of 24 new aircraft this year, including six 777-300ERs. And our new Airbus aircraft are rolling down the assembly line with the first delivery scheduled for next month. And teams across both American and US Airways are working hard and making great progress in preparing for our pending merger. We still expect the merger to close in the third quarter of this year, subject to regulatory approvals. While there is much more work ahead, the new American is taking shape with your unwavering focus on our customers every day. Thanks for all you do.”

American, Disney Collaborate on ‘Planes’ Movie

American and Walt Disney Studios announced a strategic collaboration in the studio’s upcoming animated feature “Disney’s Planes.” The film will feature a cameo appearance by “Tripp,” a character inspired by American’s Boeing 777-300ER. “Tripp” will wear the airline’s new look in the movie with the new logo and American flag design on the tail. American and Disney held an event Wednesday at LAX to honor the film that included director Klay Hall and actor Carlos Alazraqui, who provides the voice for the air racer El Chupacabra in the film.

Industry News

From The Dallas Morning News

Southwest Will Get First 737 Max Jets Early

Southwest will receive its first batch of Boeing 737 Max jets a little earlier than expected. Boeing said its first delivery of the jets to the carrier will occur in the third quarter of 2017, three months ahead of schedule. In May, Southwest was named the launch customer of the 737 Max jets with firm orders for 326 airplanes through 2027. Boeing says the 737 Max configuration, which is scheduled to be finalized next month, will give customers a 13 percent fuel-burn improvement over the most fuel-efficient single-aisle airplanes available today. Southwest plans to use the 737 Max jets to replace Boeing 717 planes and older 737-300 and 737-500 aircraft. The Southwest and AirTran fleet consisted of 606 Boeing 737s and 88 Boeing 717s as of Dec. 31.
