The American Airlines campus is an inspiring and unifying home for the world's largest airline

Fort Worth, TX, USA

American Airlines' Robert L. Crandall Campus consists of four buildings with offices subdivided into working villages.

American Airlines had a definitive vision for this expansive redevelopment: One Campus, One Team — a singular campus that unites frontline and management teams. The new campus is the central connection point for 130,000 team members worldwide, reflecting the values and aspirations of this iconic company and the forward-looking spirit of aviation.

The new campus is home to over 12,000 employees and features a 600-room training and hospitality complex for pilots, flight attendants, and visiting team members.

Inspiring connections on a grand scale

The Skyview 8 Town Hall is the heart of the campus, offering an uplifting sense of arrival and community. Skyview 8 is a series of four buildings connected by a Town Hall with shared collaborative spaces, dining, and wellness amenities. The “working villages” have an intuitive and interconnected layout that foster spontaneous collaboration and promote equity across working groups.
