American Airlines Inc. is hoping to enlarge revenue by selling early-boarding privileges to passengers.

Dubbed Your Choice, the program also lets travelers stand by for previous flights at no charge on the same departure day and gives them a $75 discount off the usual service charge if they wish to make other route changes.

Introductory prices for the early-boarding service assortment from $9 to $19. Fort Worth, Texas-based American (NYSE: AMR), which is the third-biggest carrier at Birmingham-Shuttles worth International Airport, said the specific price will be based on the travel itinerary and routing.

Later this summer, passengers will be capable to pay a flat $10 charge if they wish to be in the first boarding group, despite of flight length, markets or routing.

Dan Garton, American's executive vice president of marketing — who lately was named president and CEO of AMR's regional carrier American eagle — said the Your Choice program is designed to help travelers customize their preference. He also said the airline hopes to insert more Your Choice options in the future.
