  • American Airlines Shares Fall 4.8% on Rising Fuel Costs Despite Google SAF Deal
    June 10, 2026, 6:41 PM EDT. American Airlines (AAL) shares dropped 4.8% to $13.42 on June 10 after oil prices increased, overshadowing a recent sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) agreement with Google. Fuel costs remain a major concern, as the airline holds no hedging contracts to shield against price fluctuations, exposing it fully to higher expenses. Brent crude hovered near $94 a barrel, with U.S. crude stocks falling sharply, pushing jet fuel costs up significantly. U.S. scheduled airlines' fuel expenditures rose 26.2% in April compared to March. Although the three-year Google SAF deal aims at long-term carbon emissions reduction with 35 million gallons of SAF, it provides no immediate financial relief amid surging fuel prices. The broader market also declined, with Delta and United Airlines shares falling more than 5%.
