American Airlines signs new lease for aircraft maintenance base at Pittsburgh International

MOON TWP. — American Airlines Inc. renewed its new long-term lease with the Allegheny County Airport Authority, which manages Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT), for its aircraft maintenance base at the Moon Township airport.

The lease for the space of American’s maintenance base, which spans 330,000-square-feet across Hangars 3, 4 and 5 at the airport, will now be increased for an additional five years. It’s the second time the airline has renewed its lease at the airport since it merged with US Airways, which maintained Pittsburgh as a hub, in 2015.

The lease’s rate will remain unchanged from the prior agreement.
