American Airlines targets high-spenders
American Airlines intends to boost its profits by focusing on premium travelers. The airline will add more premium seats and retrofit the entertainment screens at the back of the seats on its single-aisle aircraft. The proportion of premium seats is expected to increase to around 40% of total seats in the coming years, up from 25% currently, with more first-class and extra-legroom seats. Currently, premium travelers contribute nearly half of ticket revenue. However, the airline still lags behind Delta and United in profitability, which has prompted it to adopt strategies aimed at improving its financial performance. Additionally, American Airlines has reinstated in-flight entertainment screens, which it had phased out about a decade ago, to better meet the preferences of younger travelers who favor larger screens. Starting in 2028, the airline plans to upgrade more than 800 aircraft with screens mounted at the back of the seats. It will also increasingly rely on high-speed Wi-Fi technology to provide a more connected and personalized travel experience.
