Some do well in a struggling industry - Financial Analyst American Airlines Employee Review

If you are hired as an MBA you are fine; if not, you are not fine. There's a definite 'them and us' mentality which is constantly perpetuated through salary, promotions etc. Prior experience is not valued, but going to the right school is - the better the name the better your prospects. Work not usually complex and expectations are low. Plus, the airline industry doesn't exactly have the best prospects going forward.
