American Airlines has announced plans to cut a small number of management and support roles, mainly at its headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas. The company said Tuesday that the layoffs are part of an effort to adjust its workforce to match current needs. American did not say the exact number of jobs affected. A spokesperson for the carrier declined to further comment. Airlines, including American, hired aggressively after the pandemic to meet increased travel demand. But that demand slowed earlier this year due to wider economic uncertainty.
