Tickets for these new services are set to be available for purchase on October 16. However, tickets for the Hyannis route won’t be available until October 23.
“New service to Hyannis, expanded service from New York, and more international service enhance the largest global network in the United States, connecting more cities than any other U.S. carrier, for a summer like no other,” stated Brian Znotins, American’s Senior Vice President of Network and Schedule Planning.
Expansion in Other Regions
The airline also announced a new service from Charlotte (CLT) to Vancouver, Canada (YVR), commencing on June 5, providing the only nonstop route between North Carolina and British Columbia. Moreover, American is relaunching its route from DCA to Bermuda on April 4, 2024, marking its return since 2019.
The new route announcements come after American has also revealed new service to Europe, which includes exciting destinations such as Copenhagen, Naples, and Nice.
