Oneworld alliance will move its headquarters to Fort Worth, Texas
Oneworld will relocate its global headquarters to Fort Worth, Texas, beginning in December 2022, joining founding alliance member American Airlines at its 300-acre Robert L. Crandall campus adjacent to Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).
American’s campus, dubbed Skyview, is home to the airline’s Flight Academy, DFW Reservations Center, Robert W. Baker Integrated Operations Center, Training and Conference Center, and CR Smith Museum, as well as an office complex that houses the airline’s leadership and support staff.

Oneworld has been based in New York City since 2011, following a move from Vancouver where the alliance’s central management team was based after the launch of the alliance in 1999. Co-locating with founding member American Airlines will further accelerate the alliance’s drive to deliver greater value for its member airlines and customers.
Dallas-Fort Worth is one of the fastest growing hubs in the Oneworld network, offering nearly 900 daily flights to more than 260 destinations. In addition to being American’s largest hub, DFW is served by seven other Oneworld members: Alaska Airlines, British Airways, Finnair, Iberia, Japan Airlines, Qatar Airways and Qantas.
“It is a significant step to relocate our Oneworld global headquarters to the state-of-the-art Robert L. Crandall Campus to be close to American Airlines, one of our founder members. Its home hub at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is one of the largest airports in our alliance and serviced by eight members, demonstrating its unrivalled connectivity and importance to travellers as a global hub”, Oneworld Chairman and Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive Akbar Al Baker said.
