Our member airlines work hard every day to provide high-quality customer service, delivering passengers and packages safely to their final destinations. Through the transfer of people and goods, U.S. airlines connect us to cultures and traditions across the world, truly making it a smaller place.
While as passengers we may not always be witness to their great work, the evidence is all around us. In case you missed it, here are highlights from a few of our member airlines last week.
American Airlines
Congratulations to American Air on its 15th year with a perfect Corporate Equality Index from the Human Rights Campaign Foundation! This annual benchmark grades America’s top workplaces and their LGBT employee inclusion. The Human Rights Campaign also honored Alaska Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines and UPS on their perfect scores.
We’re celebrating our 15th year with a perfect 100% on @HRC‘s Corporate Equality Index! #CEI2017

FedEx
FedEx is committed to giving back to our brave servicemen and women this holiday season. Families stationed in Fort Bragg received a big Christmas tree delivery, complete with hand written notes from grateful children around the country.
Southwest Airlines
Southwest Airlines honored former Oklahoma Sooner punter and Southwest employee, Mike Winchester, whose life was tragically cut short. The airline arranged a commercial airliner flyover to honor his life and family at the Oklahoma State vs. Oklahoma Bedlam game.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas at United! The airline flew thousands of children in need and their families to the “North Pole” for their Fantasy Flight.
