oneworld to Relocate Global HQ from New York to Fort Worth, Texas

Dark/Light Mode (14/10/22)  The oneworld airline alliance has decided to relocate its global headquarters to Fort Worth, Texas.

Currently located in New York City, the oneworld global headquarters will move to Fort Worth in December 2022, joining oneworld founding member American Airlines on its 300-acre, state-of-the art Robert L. Crandall Campus adjacent to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).

American’s campus, dubbed Skyview, is home to the airline’s Flight Academy, DFW Reservations Center, Robert W. Baker Integrated Operations Center, Training and Conference Center, and CR Smith Museum, as well as an office complex that houses the airline’s leadership and support staff.

oneworld has been based in New York City since 2011, following a move from Vancouver where the alliance’s central management team was based after the launch of the alliance in 1999.

The oneworld central management team will continue to be led by Rob Gurney, who was appointed as CEO in 2016.

Rob said, “As our industry recovers from COVID19, alliances and partnerships have continued to deepen. With our new home in Fort Worth, we anticipate even closer collaboration with American and our member airlines as we work side by side to further grow and strengthen oneworld.”

Dallas-Fort Worth is one of the fastest growing hubs in the oneworld network, offering nearly 900 daily flights to more than 260 destinations.

In addition to being American’s largest hub, DFW is served by seven other oneworld members: Alaska Airlines, British Airways, Finnair, Iberia, Japan Airlines, Qatar Airways and Qantas.

Both Finnair and Iberia have launched new services to DFW in the past year, leveraging the strength of American’s network at its largest hub.

American Airlines CEO, Robert Isom, said, “We are thrilled to welcome the oneworld team to our Skyview campus in Fort Worth. American is committed to building and delivering the very best global network and oneworld is an important part of that mission. The American and oneworld teams working more closely together will be tremendously beneficial to oneworld’s member airlines and customers around the world.”
