New Routes Rumours

[MAH4546]

I've heard now from multiple reliable sources the following potential new routes for 2004. Some are, apparently, "a go". Guess we'll have to hold our breathe and see:

Mainline:
Los Angeles-San Salvador
Ft. Lauderdale-San Jose, Costa Rica
Ft. Lauderdale-San Francisco (<<this one, though, I've been hearing for at least 18 months now, with nothing surfacing).

American Eagle:
Miami-Memphis
Miami-Dayton, Ohio
Raleigh-Providence
Raleigh-Austin

From your lips to God's ears, as they say. With all this new flying, you'd think that at some point they would need additional flight attendants.

Part of it is that we see route announcements all the time, but it has become very rare to see discontinuation announcements. AA never put out a press release when they discontinued Boston-Quebec City last September. No PR about the fact that Boston-Bermuda has been discontinued. San Jose-Honolulu is being suspended between 07Sep04 and 15Sep04. No more St. Louis to Pittsburgh, Phoenix, and Lafayette. Miami-Pittsburgh and O'Hare-Rochetser are going all-Eagle, and LaGuardia-Midway and LaGuardia-Toronto have gone mainly Eagle. No LaGuardia-Traverse City this summer either. It more has to do with the fact that airlines rarely make news about discontinued services anymore. Though, there is no doubt that American Airlines is seeing overall growth in scheduled service and aircraft use is becoming more efficient.

Perfect route for the 7E7 if AA purchases them (which, IMO, there is no doubt they will). The 7E7 will have a range of 14,500km. MIA-JNB is 12,973km and MIA-CPT is 12,339km.

777LR would be great for this and DFW/ORD to ASia. AA should get in early while it can.
