• GHG Emissions Intensity Reduction: American Airlines commits to reducing GHG emissions intensity by 45% by 2035, against a 2019 baseline. This is a Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated target.
• Scope 2 Emissions Reduction: The company also commits to an absolute reduction of Scope 2 emissions by 40% by 2035, from a 2019 baseline. This is also an SBTi-validated target and covers GHG emissions from purchased electricity.

The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) has validated American Airlines Group Inc.'s near-term targets as consistent with reductions required to keep warming to well-below 2°C. These targets include reducing well-to-wake GHG emissions related to jet fuel by 45% per revenue tonne kilometre from owned and subcontracted operations by 2035 from a 2019 base year, and reducing absolute Scope 2 GHG emissions by 40% over the same timeframe.
