Statements in this report contain various forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company's
expectations or beliefs concerning future events. When used in
this report, the words "expect", "forecast", "anticipates" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. All such statements are based on information
available to the Company on the date of this report. The Company
undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking
statement, regardless of reason. This discussion includes
forecasts of costs per ASM, capacity, traffic, fuel cost and fuel
consumption, earnings, and operational considerations, each of
which is a forward-looking statement. There are a number of
factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from
our forecasts. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the
continuing impact of the events of September 11, 2001 to the
company, general economic conditions, competitive factors within
the airline industry which could affect the demand for air
travel, changes in the Company's business strategy, changes in
commodity prices, the inability to successfully integrate the
operations of TWA into those of American and to improve their
profitability, higher than expected integration costs, and the
inability to successfully integrate the workforce of TWA. For
additional information regarding these and other factors see the
Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including but not limited to the Company's Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2000.
