AA America Airlines

1 Skyview Drive,
Fort Worth, TX 76155

Headquartered in Fort Worth, Texas, it was founded in 1926, commerced 10 years later.

Their frequent-flyer program is AAdvantage, part of Oneworld. I stopped flying it when they forfeited my 14k points in 2017.

Interestingly to note, the last Friday afternoon in May, I was in Dallas, every time I looked up at the skies, there was a Southwest plane. Never an AA.

IAH @ Houston


2800 N Terminal Rd,
Houston, TX 77032

… more pix and videos on Google Maps.

We’ve been to Houston but this is the first time to their airport: clean and functional.

It changed its name in 1997, to George Bush Int’l, honoring the late President Bush (1924–2018), the elder.

The Amex Centurion lounge is bit disappointing: busy and small. The waiting list really defeats the purpose. There are bathrooms at the back for the waiting crowds. I understand that it is NOT Amex but the bathroom is dilapidated, dingy and dirty.

Its B737-700 took off and landed on time.
