ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
  As a result of significant losses in recent years, our financial condition has been materially
weakened.
  Our initiatives to generate additional revenues and to reduce our costs may not be adequate or
successful.
  Our business is affected by many changing economic and other conditions beyond our control, and our
results of operations tend to be volatile and fluctuate due to seasonality.
  
    
    actual or potential changes in international, national, regional and local economic,
business and financial conditions, including recession, inflation and higher interest
rates, war, terrorist attacks or political instability;
    
    changes in consumer preferences, perceptions, spending patterns or demographic trends;
    
    changes in the competitive environment due to industry consolidation and other factors;
    
    actual or potential disruptions to the air traffic control system;
    
    increases in costs of safety, security and environmental measures;
    
    outbreaks of diseases that affect travel behavior; or
    
    weather and natural disasters.
  Our indebtedness and other obligations are substantial and could adversely affect our business and
liquidity.
  11

##### Table of Contents




    
    limit our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital
expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate purposes, or adversely affect the terms on
which such financing could be obtained;
    
    require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to
payments on our indebtedness and other obligations, thereby reducing the funds available
for other purposes;
    
    make us more vulnerable to economic downturns;
    
    limit our ability to withstand competitive pressures and reduce our flexibility in
responding to changing business and economic conditions; or
    
    limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the
industry in which we operate.
 We may be unable to comply with our financial covenants.
  We are being adversely affected by increases in fuel prices, and we would be adversely affected by
disruptions in the supply of fuel.
     12

##### Table of Contents



The airline industry is fiercely competitive and we are subject to increasing competition.
     We compete with reorganized and reorganizing carriers, which may result in competitive
disadvantages for us or fare discounting.
   13




---



##### Table of Contents



Fares are at low levels and our reduced pricing power adversely affects our ability to achieve
adequate pricing, especially with respect to business travel.
  We may need to raise additional funds to maintain sufficient liquidity, but we may be unable to do
so on acceptable terms.
     Our corporate or business strategy may change.
  Our business is subject to extensive government regulation, which can result in increases in our
costs, limits on our operating flexibility, reductions in the demand for air travel, and
competitive disadvantages.
  14

##### Table of Contents




    
    changes in law which affect the services that can be offered by airlines in particular
markets and at particular airports;
    
    the granting and timing of certain governmental approvals (including foreign government
approvals) needed for codesharing alliances and other arrangements with other airlines;
    
    restrictions on competitive practices (for example court orders, or agency regulations
or orders, that would curtail an airlines ability to respond to a competitor);
    
    the adoption of regulations that impact customer service standards (for example new
passenger security standards); or
    
    the adoption of more restrictive locally-imposed noise restrictions.
  We could be adversely affected by conflicts overseas or terrorist attacks.
   Our international operations could be adversely affected by numerous events, circumstances or
government actions beyond our control.
  15

##### Table of Contents



We could be adversely affected by an outbreak of a disease that affects travel behavior.
  Our labor costs are higher than our competitors.
  We could be adversely affected if we are unable to maintain satisfactory relations with any
unionized or other employee work group.
  Our insurance costs have increased substantially and further increases in insurance costs or
reductions in coverage could have an adverse impact on us.
    We may be unable to retain key management personnel.

 (a)
    
    Aircraft fuel expense increased primarily due to a 16.5 percent increase in the
Companys price per gallon of fuel (considering the benefit of a $55 million fuel
excise tax refund received in March 2005 and the impact of fuel hedging) offset by a
2.3 percent decrease in the Companys fuel consumption.(b)
    
    Regional payments to AMR Eagle increased primarily as a result of increased
capacity and fuel costs.(c)
    
    Other operating expenses decreased due to charges taken in 2005. Included in 2005
expenses was a $155 million charge for the retirement of 27 MD-80 aircraft, facilities
charges of $56 million as part of the Companys restructuring initiatives and an $80
million charge for the termination of an airport construction contract. These charges
were somewhat offset by a $37 million gain related to the resolution of a debt
restructuring and a $22 million credit for the reversal of an insurance reserve. The
2006 expenses were impacted by a $38 million increase in costs associated with
third-party maintenance contracts obtained by the Companys maintenance and engineering
group. 33
