American Airlines cuts flights and salespeople as habits of business travelers change

American Airlines, a large employer at the Philadelphia airport, is shifting how it manages corporate travel.

“The road warriors aren’t back. You know, those people who were leaving on Mondays coming back on Thursdays, they’re just not here today,” said Tyrrell. “When you think about who parks in our garages — because it’s a premium-priced product, as opposed to an economy parking lot or off-airport parking lot, where you see most of your leisure travelers park — they’re the business guys,” said Tyrrell.Philadelphia International Airport is doing about 80% of the travel it did pre-pandemic with about 350 flights a day, Tyrrell said. That compares to about 500 flights a day 10 years ago, and around 430 in 2019.
