No more ORD-CDG in 2019???

Went to book a trip end of Jan - no more ORD-CDG available!

Interesting that AA goes to great lengths to talk about their new routes but doesn't mention the ones that got the axe.

I find this surprising as this route was always very very full...

Likely just not loaded yet; or an AA glitch.

It's loaded seasonally, restarting April 2.

Companies - like politicians - trumpet their successes, not their failures.

ORD-CDG has been seasonal since 2016. In fact, the only year-round AA TATL route from ORD is to LHR.

I’ll take DFW-CDG over ORD any chance I get. Have to use ORD in a few weeks, and while an actual Flagship Lounge will be nice, I’d rather have the DFW flight.

After March that won't even be an issue once DFW's FL opens!

Amen to that, and a thanks to BAEC for ensuring I can always get in.

Just out of curiosity, did you ever take the flight at the end of Jan? Typically, the European flights don't do as well in the dead of winter. Plus the introduction of more nonstop European flights to larger non-hub cities is draining some of the traffic away from the major hubs.

Remember the old ‘AA Means Business in Chicago’ from years ago? Not so much these days...
