American Airlines adds over 8,000 additional seats on more than 50 extra flights on its Eastern Caribbean route since resuming their services.
American Airlines Adds Additional Seats to Resumed Services
In support of the Eastern Caribbean service return following the mandated airspace closure, the airline has announced an additional 8,000 seats across over 50 extra flights on this route.
The airlines have released their steady service resuming throughout January. To begin, extra flights and larger aircraft to and from the region were welcomed, and then extra flights in addition to interisland services, and more recently more services have been resumed.
Customers affected by the FAA-mandated airspace closure will now get to enjoy boosted capacity and wider service schedules.
“Even before the airspace was reopened early Sunday morning, teams from across American were hard at work to recover our Eastern Caribbean operation once we had the green light,” shares David Seymour, Chief Operating Officer at American Airlines.
‘Un-relenting’ Focus To Resume Schedule Services
Speaking about the airlines’ focus to resume schedule services, Seymour noted,
“Working 24/7 and with a singular and unrelenting focus on helping as many customers as possible, the team has pulled out all the stops — adding extra flights, setting up island hoppers, using bigger aircraft and deploying our largest aircraft. I’m proud of them every day, but the American team shines in moments like this.”
Interisland services to the Eastern Caribbean were also covered by American Airlines wholly owned subsidiary airline, Envoy Air, and connected the airlines with Anguilla for the first time in over a decade.
