#American Airlines brings back workers after stimulus passes

American Airlines is beginning the phased return of furloughed workers after Congress passed a massive COVID-19 aid package with $15 billion in payroll support for airlines, its executives said in a staff memo on Tuesday.

“While pay and benefits will be restored right away, people will be asked to return to the operation in phases,” CEO Doug Parker and President Robert Isom said in the memo, released by American.
