American Airlines CEO Robert Isom is under a lot of scrutiny right now. American’s 2025 financial results paled in comparison to the results of Delta and United, and many employee work groups received 0.3% profit sharing, given the lack of profits to share.
American’s flight attendant union has issued a vote of no confidence in Isom, the first time in history that the union has done such a thing. Meanwhile American’s pilot union has also called on “decisive action” from management, demanding to speak with the board.
Given all the pressure, Isom has just issued a direct message to employees, laying out his vision for the company, and how things will improve… but it doesn’t seem like there’s all that much to it?
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
