American Airlines Introduces Mobile AA.com

American Airlines has introduced a mobile version of AA.com that allows customers to access many of the helpful features of AA.com via a web-enabled cell phone or other web-enabled device.

Customers now can log on to AA.com wherever their cell phone or PDA works –in the middle of a city or miles out in the country, in the United States or overseas- without the need for a desktop or laptop computer.

Initially, customers will be able to utilize the mobile version of AA.com to check in for a flight, view their itinerary, check schedules, check the status of their flights, get information on destinations, weather or airports and contact American Airlines.

Later this spring, further enhancements to the mobile AA.com Web site will enable travelers to book flights, change their reservations, view fare specials –even request upgrades and enroll in the AAdvantage program- all from their Web-enabled cell phone or other Web-enabled device. Many pages also will be viewable in Spanish.

Accessing AA.com on a mobile phone or device is easy by simply typing http://www.aa.com/ into an Internet-enabled browser. The system recognizes when customers are accessing AA.com via a mobile device and redirects them to the mobile version of AA.com.

From the mobile home page, customers have easy access to many of the same features currently available on AA.com. The content is condensed, the design is simplified and the connection is fast, as the new mobile site is specifically designed to make it easier to navigate on a mobile device.
