News and notes from around the interweb:
- United’s new transatlantic flights
- Southern California chapter of union UNITE HERE demands (.pdf) that American Airlines include caterer SkyChefs in its sustainability report, eliminate single use plastics, and… stop donating to Republicans. Calling out donations first to Ted Cruz? That’s not a serious proposal. Cruz is American’s home state Senator, and he supported subsidies for the airline throughout the pandemic.

- There’s been lots of news coverage of the new American Airlines hotel but it’s just a company hotel and conference center on their corporate campus so I didn’t really cover it. Besides, there was a time that American actually did own their own chain of hotels! It’s since been folded into Marriott and IHG.
- oneworld is moving its headquarters onto the American Airlines campus in Fort Worth, Texas. It was in Vancouver from 1999 – 2011 and has been in New York City ever since.
