American Airlines has had a rough 2019, and its leader said the carrier is taking steps to improve.
"We know that our results should have been better," said Doug Parker, chief executive and chairman of American Airlines Group, Inc., in a statement commenting on the carrier's third quarter financial performance.
American is the largest carrier operating out of Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix, representing about half of its airline business.
The company has been dealing with the ongoing 737 Max grounding and prolonged negotiations with its mechanics.
