Looks like the bankruptcy is taking its toll on at least one of the AA FA's:

Authorities said American Airlines flight 2332 had to be diverted back to the gate moments before take-off over reports a flight attendant ranted to passengers over the public address system, saying the plane was going to crash. The crew member also complained about the airline's bankruptcy reorganization, according to reports.

Two people on board the flight told the Dallas Observer that the flight attendant had to be restrained by other crew members and passengers.

"We are not taking off," the female flight attendant said as the plane was taxiing on the runway, according to the passengers. "We're having technical difficulties. We are heading back to the gate."

Although another crew member told passengers to disregard her warning, the flight attendant kept ranting about technical problems.

According to The Dallas Morning News, she also referred to the airline's bankruptcy reorganization during her outburst.

"Captain," she said. "I am not responsible for crashing this plane."
