The boarding stairs rolled up to the plane with vintage livery are perfect!

AA plane at SEA with TWA tail livery?

Does anyone know the reason for this? I know AA technically bought TWA but I didnt think it would be too smart to bring back the livery, even 20 years later.

This is part of the retro liveries from all the airlines that now make up AA. From both the LAA side (like TWA) and LUS side (like Piedmont, PSA, etc.)

It is a heritage livery scheme. See USA Today article.

It's part of the package with them reestablishing service to TLV.
