American Airlines is opening a hotel for employees.
The hotel will be used for training and business meetings.
A dining room, basketball court, and gym are included in the small city.
The public won't be able to see the new hotel at American Airlines' Dallas/Fort Worth headquarters.
On Wednesday, American sent a memo to staff detailing the details of its brand-new Skyview 6 hotel that will open in early23. The airline is spending $250 million on a project.
Flight attendants, airport agents, and pilots will be able to stay at the exclusive 600-room accommodation at both American and its wholly owned regional carriers. According to American, other staff will have access to the hotel.
"We're hoping to simplify team members' visiting experience by building a modern hospitality complex at the heart of our campus," the memo said. A place where visiting team members can get together.
Skyview 6 is one of several buildings on American's headquarters campus, which was named after Robert L. Crandall, and will replace the old 300-room accommodation that used to stand in its place.
Insider was told that the hotel would connect to Skyview 5.
The memo states that the hotel will have a number of on-site amenities, including art installations, lounge areas for studying, and the tavern for socializing.
A courtyard, a massive 73,000- square-foot fitness center with an exercise pool, and volleyball, tennis, basketball, and pickleball courts will be available.
The hotel will have a large dining room that will serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner for employees.
The State of the Airline gathering hosted by CEO Robert Isom will have a 10,000- square-foot ballroom.
Jonathan Pierce, the company's global talent director, said it was like a small city.
