American Adjusts Regional Network to Add Summer Flying

The June schedule change appears in SABRE today, and includes adjustments to the regional network.

At ORD, Eagle will add a daily round trip to CHA, DTW, LSE, SGF, TVC, TYS, XNA and YYZ to capitalize on seasonal demand.

Additionally, Eagle will add new year-round service three times daily to Central Wisconsin Airport (CWA), a market Eagle last served in 1999.

At DFW, Additional daily round trips to BUF, CRP, GSP, JAN, MOB, and MTJ will begin June 1.

To free up Eagle resources to support the increased flying in ORD and DFW, American has asked Eagle to reduce its RJ flying in MIA (retaining 40 daily Eagle and Executive departures).

American will shift a portion of American Connection assets from STL to MIA, to improve STL profitability which has suffered recently under pressure from low cost carriers.

While the overall American Connection flying will not increase, Eagle will actually gain flying as capacity is redeployed into ORD and DFW, allowing us to fly 96 additional block hours in the month of June, due to more out-and-back hub flying.

Other notable changes in the June 1 schedule include cancellation of unprofitable flying in MIA-XNA and LGA-YHZ. Eagle will continue to serve YHZ with two daily round trips from JFK.

I should say that this is all of our RJ flying, none of the ATR flying(executive airlines).

 

[WSurf]

Yea, I miss the EYW overnights (Piedmont). The days of the Florida Flying Club is greatly missed.

 

[Tarzan]

Ummm, how do you get TSA from that? CHQ could be doing it as well.

 

[siucavflight]

Sorry, it is TSA. We will be doing some of the STL flying.

Any news is good news...

The company put out a memo laying out the schedules, a fair ammount of flying to be honest.

I dont know about the overnights yet but I bet they will be in by the next bid period so the Sr. guys can think about it for a month.

I dont know about any loss of flying right now. Nothing has come down the pipe from "God" yet so I'll wait and see. if we lose anything on the AX side we are ramping up the UE side so it should balance out at worst.

All in all I like being here...so far...

Sweet, you guys take MIA for the summer. Id rather have it in the winter. Get out of the freezing cold weather and sit on the beach while my friends are plowing snow. How are things at TSA?

Yeah I agree, MIA in the summer was not one of my favorite things to do, looks like we will lose it from June 1st through October 1st. I dont mind too much. Good luck to the TSA guys, enjoy the beach if you stay at the Sherry.

Ah. I love consumption on my days off....

I really doubt this will just be a June-October change. I am guessing TSA will be put on these MIA routes for now, and expand to the rest of the MIA RJ flying after that. Hell, they will probably have a MIA crewbase by Jan 09!

I already think that it is already all of the MIA RJ flying. I do like these MIA trips, close to 8 hours of pay for 2 legs. Only time will tell.

Starting in June TSA will be doing:

· Charlotte – 3 round trips
· Indianapolis – 1 round trip
· Norfolk – 1 round trip
· Pittsburgh – 1 round trip
· Richmond – 1 round trip


Im sure we do more MIA flying such as MEM, SDF, CMH, etc. But we will see how long that lasts.

You are right, there are a few more of them. We do not do MEM MIA anymore however.

RGGMIA shows MEM still a destination once a day. Looks like we have about 15 RJ flights/weekday out of MIA. XNA will be ending soon, and with the future TSA service that brings AE RJs down to 8 daily flights to:

TLH (2)
CLT (1)
MEM
SDF
GSO
CVG
CMH
