The airline - which currently operates as American Eagle from its hubs in Miami and San Juan to destinations throughout Florida, the Caribbean and the Bahamas - is expected to be sold during the first quarter of 2003.
American Eagle is also taking steps to ensure that American Airlines stays in compliance with its contract with the Allied Pilots Association (APA). The contract limits the amount of flying which can be done on the American code.
Joaquin Bolivar is a Puerto Rican businessman and chairman and CEO of the Water Club Hotel and the Excelsior Hotel. He also founded Executive Air Charter in 1979.
