American plans to hire 200 additional employees in 2016, building on the nearly 500 jobs added at LAX since its merger closed with US Airways in Dec-2013. The carrier is also extending its dedication to Los Angeles with a multi-year deal as the exclusive airline partner of the Hollywood Bowl. American's chief marketing officer Andrew Nocella said, "In 2016, we'll make our Flagship Lounge and Admirals Club even better with an enhanced and upgraded lounge experience. Everything has been carefully designed to take care of our customers through every step of their journey." [more - original PR]
