Nice to see all these new flights. Even better to read announcements of new mainline service since it seems that almost all new flights for the last several years have been Eagle and not mainline.

But I'm sure the disgruntled will soon post why this is bad news. B)

Will we ever see MIA-SEA again? Seems as though we just gave this route to Alaska Airlines.

It would be nice to see PBI- ORD, LGA, and BOS year round. For years PBI's AA service has gone from multiple daily flights to all the above & DFW to only 1 flight to DFW. Palm Beach has year round demand, we are not a third world country for the summer. DAL has served the same markets for years, all year long, and they shown profits from it. Make my reservation for AA next July to ORD.

That would be a great!

I strongly believe we will within 12-18 months.
