  • We help working people get to their jobs.

  • We help older people age in place instead of having to move out of their home.

  • We help people with disabilities maintain their independence.

  • We help college students get to class so that they can avoid the added expense of owning a car.

AMTRAN Values

Our mission, vision, and strategies have evolved over the past 25 years.  However our values, which were written by Amtran employees in 1998, have stayed exactly the same.  We try very hard to live up to those values.  Yes, sometimes we may fall short.  But it is how we all agreed that we want to treat each other.  It remains our goal today.
