American Airlines is hiring aviation maintenance technicians (AMTs) around the country during the first half of 2019. The company’s Line Maintenance team plans to hire more than 250 AMTs in approximately 30 cities as a result of increased demand for maintenance support in the U.S. as the airline’s peak summer season approaches.
“This big hiring push is all about providing additional support for our daily mainline departures and reinforcing the operational reliability of our airline as we prepare for our peak travel period and beyond,” said Paul Wroble, Vice President of Line Maintenance. “Increasing our maintenance team, which currently comprises more than 9,000 licensed AMTs, will enable us to continue our focus of improving the overall travel experience for our customers and team members.”
