American Airlines To Bring More Than 600 Home-Based Jobs To Miami

MIAMI, FL — American Airlines has announced plans to bring more than 600 home-based reservations jobs to Miami.

The airline currently has 200 new representatives in training and a goal to hire more than 400 in the next couple of months, bringing the total of home-based reservations agents to nearly 800, according to the airline.

The team members will join more than 1,500 new team members hired at Miami International Airport in 2021.

“As the third-largest private employer in Miami-Dade County, these new full-time positions further strengthen our more than 30-year commitment to our community and to our Miami hub,” said Juan Carlos Liscano, American Airlines vice president of Miami operations. “With the record growth we’ve experienced in the last year, we’re thrilled to continue creating more jobs in Miami.”

American is Miami’s hometown airline, offering up to 360 daily flights to 140 destinations operated by more than 12,500 locally based team members.

Last year, the airline launched six new international destinations and 11 new domestic routes from MIA, resulting in the largest operation in the history of the hub.

“MIA is proud to be American Airlines’ home airport as they continue to invest in our community and create jobs for our residents,” said Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava. “It is thanks to partners like American and their commitment to our community, even during the hardest times of the pandemic, that we have been able to recover economically.”

“At American we’re incredibly proud of our results in 2021 and this year we’re looking forward to another record-breaking year, made possible by the outstanding team that we have here at MIA,” Liscano said.
