American Airlines and other North American airlines are struggling with a shortage of pilots, exacerbated by the costs of training and mandatory retirements at age 65. In response, airlines have introduced pilot training programs and initiatives to attract talent, such as offering conditional jobs to retired military pilots. However, American Airlines recently suspended its new pilot training until 2025, reflecting the broader challenges facing the industry in hiring and training pilots to meet demand amid changes in the post-pandemic travel landscape.
