American CEO Robert Isom announced the airline's plan to appeal the court's decision to terminate its partnership with JetBlue within 30 days. The alliance was challenged by the Biden administration after being approved by the Trump administration in 2020. The partnership was intended to compete with Delta and United in New York City and enable American to fly to Tel Aviv with JetBlue's connecting feed.

The decision is also affecting JetBlue's acquisition of Spirit Airlines, as they are being sued by the Justice Department to stop the takeover. Stay tuned for updates on the appeal.
