#AATeam member Andres Vergel, a Colombia native, faced many setbacks while on his journey to achieve his dreams in the United States. He enrolled in college to learn English, worked part-time at a library and even faced unemployment. Despite it all, Andres never wavered. He found an interest in aviation and worked as a ramp agent and then as one of the pioneering "Red Coats" at American Airlines. His passion and commitment led him to pursue a degree in aviation while juggling work and his studies. Supported by scholarships, Andres earned an Associate in Science in Business Administration and advanced through various roles, including Tower Coordinator and Duty Manager on Inflight at MIA. The journey doesn’t stop there: Andres is now a Crew Manager at DCA and pursuing an MBA at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. He exemplifies perseverance and growth and showcases the power of resilience. #HHM

Life can be an unexpected journey that brings you to cross paths with the most amazing people. ?? For #AATeam member Armie Pilarca-Woods and customer Pat Gonzalez, their frequent encounters at the LAX Admirals Club turned into an unexpected friendship during the hardest of times: their cancer journeys.??? Pat, who confided in Armie about her own cancer experience, became a crucial support for Armie when she faced her own diagnosis. Now, breast cancer survivors, Armie and Pat reflect on their 30-year friendship journey that started with a single interaction. ??

On her very first day at American Airlines in 2023, #AATeam member Cathleen Williams celebrated more than just a new beginning — it also marked the triumphant end of her cancer treatment. ?? However, in the rush of so much change, Cathleen never rang the bell to commemorate this milestone. To honor her incredible courage and perseverance, Cathleen was surprised with a heartwarming bell-ringing ceremony, surrounded by Stand Up To Cancer placards and the cheers of her colleagues at the DFW Reservations Office. ???? This special event was a beautiful celebration of her journey and the unwavering support she found within her American Airlines family. The bell ringing symbolized so much more than the end of treatment — it echoed with hope, resilience and the strength to overcome life's toughest moments. ??
