Although she survived the impact, and telephoned her husband, she was unable to escape from the building and died when it collapsed
If action is taken then surely it should be against the company who constructed the towers not the airline.

There is something very unsavoury about lawsuits of this nature. Whilst I sympathise with the individual concerned ( I cannot even comprehend the sense of loss that people must feel in this situation) one wonders whether the case would be brought if the sums of money were not so large. Would the case still be so attractive if AA offered the gentleman and his family free first class travel for life (up to the value of USD50 million)?
