AA to add LAX-DCA
|
Of course, no significant event happens in LA without the mayor making a boneheaded comment or trying to take credit for it. It's almost as if there was no way to get to DC from LA before now:
"The establishment of a direct flight to our nation’s capital makes it easier for those who want to visit the halls of Congress or visit our nation’s monuments and national treasures. [...]" said Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa. |
Seems like a nice complement to AS service – AS' flights leave DCA in the morning and leave LAX in the early afternoon, while these new AA flights leave LA in the morning and leave DCA in the evening.

Just hope AS doesn't divert it's lax slot to another sea-dca flight. Need that morning departure out of dca.

This is great news - the departure times are wonderful and flying in and out of DCA is so much better than IAD.
|
It'd be great if you could take the AA flight out to DCA and the AS flight to LAX on a RT ticket.

Why not book it as two one-ways? |

Based on the posted schedule, it looks like AA's DCA-LAX flight will arrive in time to make a legal connection to AS's LAX-SEA and for those so inclined, DL's SEA-MSP and further connections from there. Instead of taking a nonstop DCA-MIA flight and earning 920 EQMs, one could earn 6165 EQMs with this routing, which AS could likely ticket. |

Doesn't AA jack up the prices on one ways?
Not on domestic flights. |
