AMR Corporation () is a commercial aviation business and airline holding company based in Fort Worth, Texas. Formed in 1982, as part of American Airlines's reorganization, its name derives from American Airlines' ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange. In addition to American Airlines, AMR owns TWA Airlines LLC, (formerly Trans World Airlines) and regional airlines American Eagle Airlines, successor to Simmons Airlines, and Executive Airlines by way of AMR Eagle Holdings Corporation. Regional Airlines flown in conjunction with American Airlines marketing brand, known as AmericanConnection, are independent of AMR Corporation's divisions and subsidiaries, but do operate in conjunction with them in order to provide seamless connections to AMRs two principal airline holdings.
