Technology that transforms travel

We created the world’s largest electronic marketplace when Amazon was just a river in Brazil. What started as a joint initiative between American Airlines and IBM to create the world’s first computerized airline reservation system in 1960 has since evolved into a technology ecosystem that touches almost every stage of your travel experience.
