Unfortunately those are probably squatters buying them up hoping they can sell them. If AA was to merge some other carrier the site sure wouldn't be that.

Probably not - from the article...


The author points out that the names were registered through MarkMonitor, an online brand protection service that only deals with legitimate companies. Anyone registering a domain through MarkMonitor has to provide proof that they own the rights to the names involved, so barring fraud or a security failure at MarkMonitor, it is almost certain these names were actually registered by representatives of American and/or US.
