Perhaps not coincidentally, American Eagle Airlines ranked 13, with 1.17 complaints per 100,000 enplanements, while American Airlines ranked in the bottom 5 at 17, with 1.65 complaints per 100,000 enplanements.
Out of those consumer complaints filed with the DOT, there were 58 disability-related complaints between American Airlines at 50 and American Eagle at 8. They fared just slightly worse than Delta, which had 53, and slightly better than United, which had 64.
