Arpey joined American Airlines in 1982 as a financial analyst.
He held numerous management positions during his career at American, including managing director of Airline Profitability Analysis, managing director of Financial Analysis and Fleet Planning, and managing director of Financial Planning.
He became a corporate officer in 1989, when he was elected vice president of Financial Planning and Analysis.
Prior to that, he had served as president and chief operating officer of AMR and American since April 2002.
Arpey led a global organization that included American Airlines, American Eagle and AmericanConnection, serving approximately 250 cities in 40 countries and territories around the world.
During Arpey's tenure the combined network offered, on average, more than 3,400 flights a day with nearly 900 aircraft.

As executive vice president of operations, Arpey was responsible for American's worldwide flight operations, including Maintenance and Engineering, Flight Department, Operations Planning, Purchasing, Corporate Real Estate, AA Cargo and American Eagle.

Arpey announced his retirement on November 29, 2011, coinciding with the bankruptcy filing of American Airlines parent AMR.
He was succeeded by Thomas W. Horton.
Some airline industry analysts suggested that Arpey did long-term damage to AMR by not filing for Chapter 11 protection earlier on, something he refused to implement on moral grounds as the process of bankruptcy was intended for the purpose of decreasing pension and other financial obligations made to employees.
Arpey declined requests by both the AMR board and Horton to stay on in some management capacity because of his unwillingness to work under a bankruptcy scenario.
As per his contract, Arpey did not receive any severance upon retirement.
On December 1, 2011, Arpey joined Emerald Creek Group, LLC as a partner.
