American Airlines has announced plans to add 500 new maintenance jobs and grow its heavy maintenance operation bases in Charlotte, Pittsburgh, and Tulsa. 

In a press release published on September 9, 2024, the carrier said the added headcount will allow the airline to perform additional heavy maintenance check work at these locations. 

“American is excited to grow the Technical Operations workforce with more aviation maintenance positions,” said Greg Emerson, American’s Vice President of Base Maintenance and Facilities. “It’s an opportunity to grow our maintenance capacity and capabilities in the near-term and preserve them over the long run by continuing to build our pipeline of future maintenance team members.”
