If you mean Alcoholics Anonymous, the organization itself has a policy of being open to everyone regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity, and its only requirement for membership is a desire to stop drinking. Alcoholics Anonymous as a worldwide fellowship does not take official positions on outside issues, including politics or social causes, and its traditions state it should be inclusive. In practice, many AA groups are very LGBT friendly and welcoming, and there are even specific LGBT-focused AA meetings in most large US cities, often listed as LGBTQ AA meetings, gay and lesbian AA, or rainbow meetings, where LGBT people can share more openly. Like any large volunteer-led organization with thousands of independent local groups, individual experiences can vary depending on the location and the people in a particular meeting, with urban meetings often being more openly affirming. If you mean American Airlines, the company has a long public record of supporting LGBT inclusion, including perfect scores on the Human Rights Campaign Corporate Equality Index for many years, offering same-sex partner benefits, and having an LGBT employee resource group.
