American Airlines has announced plans to build a new, larger catering kitchen at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW). The new facility is part of American’s long-term growth strategy at its largest hub and will allow the airline to better serve customers as it grows.
American also plans to break ground in January 2020 on a new Central Fulfillment Center that will house aircraft parts for line maintenance support across its network. The 390,000-ft² facility will enable the airline to fulfill requests for parts up to 75% faster, minimizing potential maintenance delays. Locating this facility at DFW enhances American’s ability to distribute parts for overnight maintenance throughout the network.
