Out of JFK, AA does not serve SAN, LAS, or SLC non stop. A lot of gaps to major cities in their route map heading west. Why they cant profitably offer weekend non stop service to LAS is surprising.

SAN is at least served by AS. |
AA is suing to save the NEA.
They're up a creek without a paddle otherwise. Their NY strategy is neither coherent, nor consistent and no amount of PR and alcohol can make make PHL a viable alternative. It's impressive that they've managed to screw this up this badly, given the fact that they own JFK-LHR and LAX, the most profitable routes on earth. |
Some additions (mostly resumptions?) out of LGA next summer for AA. All on E175s. Some noted as seasonal, unclear if rest will be year round?
LGA to: Bangor (1x / day) Hyannis (1x) (seasonal) Martha's Vineyard (1x) (seasonal) Nantucket (1x) (seasonal) Portland, ME (2x) Halifax (1x) Also DCA-Hyannis 1x E75 seasonal service https://www.aeroroutes.com/eng/231017-aans24us https://www.aeroroutes.com/eng/231016-aans24ca |
I've been told "Mediocre At Best" is the new company mission statement.

I'm just hoping not to see any backsliding in BOS, B6's other focus city. AA had a decent presence there in the 90s and 00s, lots of transcons. Then they cut all Eagle flights and at one point were nearly back to service to "cornerstone" cities (remember those?) on the eve of the US merger. That merger brought a ton more service, plus a much bigger and nicer (post-reno) AC. AA is now nearly tied with DL in passenger share (19% each), behind B6 (30%). Maybe some opportunity to seize some market share and make it to #2?
AA has still been whittling some service at BOS. The loss of BOS-LAX frequency that others have mentioned is pretty shocking, down from 4-5x not long ago to 2x. I got hit with a very undesirable schedule change because of that recently. They do compete with DL, UA, B6 on that route, all of them offering lie-flat seats in business. BOS isn't great for domestic connections, but it's got international connections on BA, IB, JL, CX, QR, who don't serve (or don't serve much) nearby AA strongholds like PHL, DCA, CLT. The BOS B-C-E airside connector makes these easier than they used to be. And it's a strong O&D market. There are a lot of areas where AA seems unfocused at the moment, but I hope the reaction to the loss of B6 partnership isn't to retreat from BOS like they did 10-15yrs ago. |
When running a business crafting strategies without data is pointless, so why bother here?
