From https://www.skyscanner.com/tips-and-...ght-discounts:
American Airlines offers senior discounts in a handful of Latin American markets only — and some of the rules are a bit complicated.
  • For travel originating in Ecuador, passengers aged 65 and over can claim 50% off the adult fare.
  • For travel originating in Honduras, passengers aged 60 and over can claim 25% off the adult fare — but there are a few catches. It only applies if you’re a Honduran citizen, OR if you’ve clocked up more than 10 years of legal residency in Honduras. OR if you’re retired or pensioned due to incapacitation — in which case, it doesn’t matter how old you are.
  • For travel originating in Panama, men aged 60 and over, and women aged 55 and over, can claim 25% off the adult fare. (Note you must be the qualifying age at the time of purchase). This also applies to retired residents of Panama who have a Retirement Card issued by the Panamanian government.
For all of the above, the discount applies to flights to any city served by American Airlines — anywhere in the world.

But! The discount may not be used in addition to any other discount, coupon or promotional offer. And passengers must show proof of their age either at the time of purchase or boarding.
