The long-range narrowbody will debut on transatlantic service next year.

The airline will be the first U.S.-based carrier to operate the type.

The airline’s oldest and largest widebody sub-fleet is slated for a facelift.

The new and expanded flights are from its New York and Dallas/Fort Worth hubs.

Seasonal flights return next summer after a five-year pause.

The Fort Worth, Texas-based carrier said Tuesday that it will retrofit its regional jets to bring them closer in line with the standards of its mainline fleet.

The Fort Worth, Texas-based carrier will suspend service on a route it began in 2021, a spokesperson confirmed on Monday.

Passengers describe panic inside the cabin as smoke filled the aircraft, with some forced to evacuate before being rescued by ground crews.

American is adding a brand-new destination to its network that is not currently served by any U.S. carriers. Service is slated to launch in early 2026. 

American already has a pilot base for the A320 family in New York, though it is limited to domestic flights. It covers flights from JFK, LaGuardia, and Newark.
