Jim Cochrane, Executive Vice President and Chief Revenue Officer of the Texas Rangers, highlighted the enriching history and forward-looking vision of this partnership. The multiyear agreement marks a new chapter in offering AAdvantage members access to exclusive experiences and the American Lounge, promising an unmatched viewing experience at Globe Life Field.
