2015 Highlights Another Outstanding Year Integration Has Gone Smoothly Significant Investments in Operation, Product and Fleet Introducing New Revenue Opportunities Driving Long-Term Shareholder Value - Record profit of $6.3 billion* - Record pretax margin of 15.3 percent* - PSS cutover complete - Ratified joint contracts with our pilots, flight attendants and customer service agents - Took delivery of 127 new aircraft and removed 143 aircraft from the fleet - Now have the youngest fleet of the four largest carriers - AAdvantage program changes - Product Segmentation - Repurchased 85.1 million shares for $3.6 billion - Paid a total of $278 million in quarterly dividends *Profit and pre-tax margin exclude net special charges. Please refer to the Company s GAAP to Non-GAAP reconciliation in the appendix. 5
Further Integration Items, 2016 and Beyond Single Flight Operating System - Aircraft and crews become interchangeable - Requires extensive data migration, coding and testing Labor Agreements - Single seniority list for pilots - Combined contracts for ramp and mechanic employees Livery & Uniforms - Entire fleet will be repainted by 2018 - New uniforms will provide a consistent look across the airline Customer Service Alignment and HR - Consistent staffing policies across the network - New HR tools eliminate duplication Tech Ops - Currently separate labor groups and multiple systems - Ultimately will have one labor group using a unified interface 6

What is the IOC? 14
IOC Command Center Manage Events Teleconference System Satellite TV Secure Communications 15
Why an IOC? Centralized unit to coordinate and monitor operations to ensure business requirements are met on a system wide basis Safety Customer Service (Schedule Dependability) Communications (Operational Information) Operating Policies Operational Efficiencies 16
Why an IOC (continued) Federal Aviation regulations require Operational Control IOC fulfills that role Airlines conduct operational control by making decisions and performing actions that are necessary to operate flights safely and in compliance with regulations Provides a centralized point of contact for all safety of flight and customer relations concerns 17
What is the IOC? ATVC Coord. MTX Operations Dispatch Ops. Coord. Flight Planning IOC SCSM Crew Scheduling WSI WX Service Weight & Balance Planning Flight Service 18
Flight Management
Flight Management Dispatch creates flight plans and flight releases for all flights Route of flight Fuel Requirements Maximum Payload Calculates Weight and Balance Limitations Monitors and updates flight progress Route changes ATC Conditions Changing weather conditions including weather hazards Flight planning system optimizes for least cost Cost of fuel Cost of time Cost of being late 20
AA Flight Dispatch Monitors a flight s operating environment from origin to destination. Updates and provides en route and destination weather to the pilot. Advises down line stations of a flight delay Coordinates and implements plans to handle off Irregular Operations (IROPS) in AA system. 21
Dispatch Jointly responsible with Captain for safety of flight operations Ensures we have a serviceable aircraft, crew, and fuel load Determines route of flight and issues the dispatch release / flight plan 22
Dispatch Automation Fusion (Monitors flights and weather on a map) Dispatch Auto/flight Monitor (Flight following tool) Diversion Tracker (Diversion Recovery Tool) Taxi Alert Monitor (Monitors 3hr tarmac delays) Operations Performance Tools (TO/LDG Wt. Corrections) 23

Command Center (ATCSCC) Conducts national planning telecons every 2 hours Ad Hoc telecons as needed: GDP, GS, Route issues, AFP (airspace flow program) etc Security events / issues / VIP TFRs Conducts post event reviews of specific events as requested by FAA management or industry 30
CDM Collaborative Decision Making Industry, academia, ATC, NBAA, US Military and NAVCANADA participants Provide input on daily tactical decision making (FAA has final decision authority) Joint workgroups to set goals for further ATM developments in technology and procedures 31

The Challenges of the Northeast 37
NE Population Density Map 38
NE Airspace Constraints 39
The Swap Problem The airspace structure in the Northeast is the most dense in the world. PHL sits between the New York Metro and the DC Metos. Airways are one way in the Northeast, with most arrival routes dedicated to specific traffic flows. Initial departure routes are shared in New York. PHL initial departure routes are dedicated. When weather causes arrival traffic to deviate off route departure routes are immediately impacted and often closed as a result. 40
