RIP: Albert Casey

AAL Deregulation Pioneer Dies At 84

The man who moved American Airlines from New York to Fort Worth and saw the company through deregulation, Albert Casey, died over the weekend. He was 84.

When the government deregulated airlines in 1978, Casey was at the helm of American's parent company, AMR Corporation. He'd joined the company just four years earlier.

"Al Casey was brought in as chairman at a critical point in American's history. He assembled a management team who, under his skilled leadership, guided American through the early days of deregulation and built it into one of the world's pre-eminent airlines," said AMR's current CEO, Gerard Arpey.

Al Casey has gone west. Although not a commercial pilot himself, Casey helped make American the biggest airline in the world. Happy Landings, Al.
