American To Add More Flights To Its Winter Schedule From Phoenix Sky Harbor

This November, American Airlines will add more than 25 daily departures from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) while also launching new service from the Valley of the Sun to Jacksonville, FL (JAX) – the airline’s fourth nonstop destination to the Sunshine State. Additionally, the airline will resume nonstop service for the first time in more than three years to Wichita, KS (ICT).

“Although we’ve not yet reached the halfway point of the summer travel season, we’re already focusing on how we can best serve our customers this winter,” said Sophia Philis-Ortiz, Vice President of PHX Hub Operations. “Thanks to the additional flight offerings, we will be providing additional seat capacity that allows us to welcome more customers in Phoenix than we did last winter.”

The airline will operate more than 12% additional daily flights in comparison to last winter while providing nearly 4% more seats – offering even more opportunities for customers to get to where they want to travel.

“American’s announcement of their largest winter schedule in nearly a decade is wonderful news and it really speaks to their continued confidence in the Phoenix market,” said Director of Aviation Services for the City of Phoenix Aviation Department Chad Makovsky. “American is an essential business partner, and we couldn’t be more pleased with their continued growth and investment in Phoenix. We’re also excited to see American will be launching nonstop service to Jacksonville, Florida, an entirely new market for us.”
