United Airlines announced Thursday customers will have new international routes to choose from in 2019.

Some of the new United routes include year-round service between San Francisco and Amsterdam; nonstop seasonal summer service between New York/Newark and Naples, Italy; and flights between New York/Newark and Prague, Czech Republic.

Tickets for the new flights are now available for purchase on United's official website.

"We've built an unparalleled global network and we continuously look for opportunities to make United the first choice for travelers booking flights to Europe and beyond," United vice president Patrick Quayle said in a statement. "Whether customers are traveling for business or leisure, United offers more choice than ever before to connect to the places, people and moments that matter most."

The new daily, year-round service between San Francisco and Amsterdam starts March 30, 2019, and United will become the only U.S. carrier to offer nonstop service between the two cities. The airline will also launch its seasonal service between the U.S. and Naples on May 22, 2019, through Oct. 4, 2019.

As for the flights between Newark Liberty International Airport and Prague, the daily nonstop seasonal service will begin June 6, 2019, and operate through October 4, 2019. In total, United has nearly 360 international destinations in 49 countries as part of its network.
