Positions and flown trails from open ADS-B broadcasts (adsb.lol), matched against American Airlines's FAA-registered airframes — mainline fleet only, updated every 30 seconds. Trails colored by altitude.
Every American Airlines nonstop route in our tracked network — hubs in orange. Download this map — free to reuse with a link back to this page.
Scope: our route data covers 500 tracked origin airports, so this shows routes touching those airports. For large carriers that is close to the whole network; for regional carriers it may be partial.
The longest American Airlines nonstop in our data is Los Angeles (LAX) to Sydney (SYD) at 7,494 miles — roughly 14h 51m in the air (estimated from distance). The shortest is Syracuse (SYR) to Watertown (ART) at 61 miles.
985 aircraft are US-registered with American Airlines as the registrant, averaging 14.2 years old.
