American Airlines could name new uniform vendor as soon as January
The American Airline uniform crisis, a problem that has plagued AA and thousands of the carrier's employees for well over a year, remains a matter of serious concern. That was apparent at an employee town hall meeting in Dallas presided over by American Airlines CE Doug Parker and VP of flight service Jill Surdek. Twin Hill uniforms are believed to be tied to symptomatic reactions reported by thousands of AA flight attendants, pilots and gate agents. At Tuesday's crew meeting Surdek talked of the progress being made on obtaining new uniforms. She said more than 30 vendors had responded to a RFP put out when American decided to find a new uniform supplier. From those, 65 were recently selected as finalists. And Surdek said the company could name a new uniform supplier as early as next month. <br/>
