American Airlines announced more flights in February and
March to connect football fans to their favorite teams and transport tech-minded
travelers to a major annual mobile communications trade show.
Tickets are now on sale for the additional flights and seats
between February 8-12 to Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. American
will operate flights from New York City’s John F. Kennedy International Airport
using its larger Airbus A321T aircraft.
The carrier will also operate the A321T on select flights to
Los Angeles International Airport, offering one-stop lie-flat premium
connections to transcontinental destinations, including New York and Boston
Logan International Airport.
From Miami International Airport and Philadelphia International
Airport, American will operate daily round-trip service using Boeing 787
aircraft for inbound travel on February 8-9 and outbound travel on February 12.
On peak days, the airline will offer more than 150 lie-flat
seats to and from Las Vegas. Travelers purchasing an eligible itinerary can
also enjoy an elevated preflight experience, including access to exclusive
lounges and food and drink experiences.
“Whether you're looking to get the latest on all that's
happening with mobile communications or celebrating your team playing in the
championship game, we know nothing beats seeing it live,” American Managing
Director Jason Reisinger said.
For more tech-minded travelers, American has also added
flights to Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in Spain for the 2024
edition of the Mobile World Congress.
Connecting customers with just one stop from more than 200
destinations across the United States and the world, the airline will offer
more seats to Barcelona from Miami and New York, while operating special
service from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.
The flights complement new year-round service from Philadelphia
to Barcelona, operating daily in time for the conference.
“With more than 6,000 additional seats in and out of Las
Vegas and Barcelona, we're adding more convenient ways to connect fans and
enthusiasts to experience all the action,” Reisinger continued.
