Insights

Aviation History

The Boeing 777-300ER is the world\'s most successful long-range twinjet, widely used for transcontinental and transoceanic flights. American Airlines operates a sizable 777-300ER fleet for their flagship long-haul routes.

Fleet Rarity

American Airlines is the only US mainline carrier operating the 777-300ER. Only a small fraction of the world’s twinjets are 777-300ERs with US carriers.

Record Flights

Common on American’s longest international routes (e.g., DFW-HKG, LAX-LHR, MIA-GRU).

Safety & Events

The 777-300ER is known for its tremendous reliability and no fatal accidents to date involving the type in major airlines’ service.

Future Outlook

Active and central to American\'s long-haul fleet, but will begin to be replaced by newer models (A350, 787) in the late 2020s.
