When the American Airlines Customer Cup \u2013 the company\u2019s traveling prize for airport operational performance and customer satisfaction \u2013 returned for the third quarter of 2021 (3Q21), team XNA was on the list. Not content with just one win, the team carried that momentum into 4Q21.<\/p>\n

The team exceeded their Departure (D0) and Turn (T0) Performance goals for the quarter, while keeping consistently high customer satisfaction scores to claim their second Cup win for 2021, and their fifth Customer Cup win overall \u2013 an impressive achievement!<\/p>\n

Whether our customers realize it or not, focusing on key metrics such as D0, T0 and bag performance (MBR) has a huge impact on their travel experience. For business travelers \u2013 a large part of XNA\u2019s customer base \u2013 a delay or service failure could result in a missed connection, or could turn a day trip into an overnight. Every part of the travel experience \u2013 whether it\u2019s part of the station\u2019s control or not \u2013 could impact other travel plans and future revenue for American Airlines.<\/p>\n

This is why the Envoy team in XNA, in collaboration with Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport, American\u2019s Sales team and other stakeholders, partners with companies such as Walmart and Tyson Foods to ensure that business travelers have the best experience when traveling through XNA.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have the great privilege to visit many Envoy stations that win the Customer Cup, and all of these winners have one thing in common \u2013 teamwork,\u201d says Envoy Senior Vice President, Customer Services, John Jaynes<\/strong>. \u201cYou don\u2019t win two Customer Cups in a row by accident; it takes strong coordination between our airport and Maintenance teams, our colleagues at American, the local airport, the TSA and many others. We all share in this success.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile XNA is a regional station, it has a busy flight schedule with lots of complexity and that creates challenges,\u201d explains former XNA General Manager Rodney Warner<\/strong>. Rodney left the station at the end of 4Q21 to lead the Envoy team at Cincinnati (CVG). \u201cWhile I\u2019m thankful for the whole of team XNA, the Envoy Maintenance team and our Supervisors deserve recognition \u2013 when issues come up, they know what to do to get everyone back on track with a smile. Whether it\u2019s training new hires, coordinating a maintenance delay, or anything in between \u2013 we\u2019re all on the same team, pulling in the same direction. Customers see that and it really counts.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m proud of all that you\u2019ve built here,\u201d adds Envoy Vice President, Airport Services Jude Mayeux<\/strong>. \u201cAs we welcomed customers back to the skies at the end of \u201921, we also welcomed many new faces to team XNA. You\u2019ve all done an amazing job \u2013 I look forward to seeing you all again soon!\u201d<\/p>\n

Congratulations on your continued success, team XNA!<\/p>\n

What is the Customer Cup?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The Customer Cup is a quarterly award and celebration organized by American Airlines to recognize stations that demonstrate the strongest performance in Customer Experience.<\/p>\n

How do you win?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Each station across the AAG network \u2013 both domestic and international \u2013 competes against others of the same size and operational likeness. Stations are measured by performance in several metrics, including:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Departure Dependability (D0)<\/li>\n
  • Turn Dependability (T0)<\/li>\n
  • Baggage Performance (MBR)<\/li>\n
  • Customer Feedback & Airport Experience<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    What do stations win?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    Every quarter, winning stations receive the Customer Cup to recognize the efforts of employees at that station. Winning stations are also entered into the running for the top prize in the competition \u2013 the Champions Cup \u2013 which is typically awarded annually in the Spring. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the program was put on hold between 1Q20 and 2Q21.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
