American Airlines surprises passengers with USMNT jerseys

The airline activated its partnership with the World Cup and the USMNT through a unique matchday giveaway.

Passengers flying from Los Angeles to Seattle to watch the United States face Australia found an official national team jersey waiting on their seats, alongside a gift bag filled with other tournament merchandise.

Iberia executed a similar activation last year during the launch of Spain’s official World Cup jersey, surprising travelers on a flight to Mexico City.

American Airlines has served as an official sponsor of the USMNT since May 2025, shortly after striking a major deal with FIFA as the official airline of the 2026 World Cup.
