FOR RELEASE: Monday, February 13, 2006


          AMR ANNOUNCES DEPARTURE OF CFO JAMES BEER

     FORT WORTH, Texas - AMR Corporation, parent company of
American Airlines, announced today that James Beer, the
company's senior vice president and chief financial officer,
will leave the company to take a position with Symantec, a
software company based in Northern California.
     "James has been a great team player, exceptional leader
and good friend. He played a key role in the progress we've
made under our Turnaround Plan and will be missed," said
Gerard Arpey, AMR Chairman and CEO.
     Beer became AMR's chief financial officer in December
2003 after serving in various leadership roles in his 15-year
tenure with American.
     Arpey said that the company will begin a search for a
successor immediately. Beer will remain with the company as
its CFO through the filing of AMR's Annual Report on Form 10-
K, including the execution of the CFO's certification of the
10-K.
     "While it is always disappointing to unexpectedly lose
an executive of James' exceptional capabilities and
leadership, American continues to have one of the strongest
management teams in the industry, including a very strong
finance department. Given that, we expect a smooth
transition."
     "We wish James every success in his new position," said
Arpey. "Our focus now will be to select a leader who will
help us build on the great progress we've made."
