About American

American Airlines Cargo rides on the world’s biggest passenger fleet with ≈990 aircraft offering daily maindeck and narrow-body belly space across 350+ destinations—no dedicated freighters needed. Its wide-body programme is surging for winter 2025/26: new Rio de Janeiro ⇄ Dallas/Fort Worth, Brisbane ⇄ DFW and Tokyo-Haneda ⇄ JFK links headline nearly 200 extra Latin-America wide-body departures and the network’s longest non-stop flight. Premium perishables and pharma move via flagship hubs at DFW and MIA, while TrackCargo ingests AA’s EDI feed and live ADS-B to refresh flight position every 2 min—delivering a single timeline from tender to final delivery.
