American Airlines raised round-trip domestic air fares by $10 in a bid to partially compensate for higher fuel costs, a spokesman said Wednesday.

The AMR Corp. unit’s fare increase was the latest of several by U.S. airlines in recent months as limited available seats, combined with strong demand, have given airlines increased pricing power.

US Airways Group Inc. said it had matched the increase, while UAL Corp.’s United Airlines and Northwest Airlines Corp. said they were studying the move.

Delta Air Lines Inc. did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
