American Airlines: Dallas/Fort Worth
built 621 days ago
American Airlines serves destinations on four continents. Its network is particularly developed in the Americas, where it serves more destinations than any other U.S. airline. Hubs at Dallas/Fort Worth, Miami and New York (JFK) serve as major gateways to the Americas, while American's Chicago hub has become the airline's primary gateway to Europe and Asia. Similar to other U.S. legacy carriers, American has dramatically cut back on flying point-to-point routes (both domestic and international) to once-important non-hub cities such as Boston, San Jose, and Fort Lauderdale in favor of consolidating operations into major hubs.

FORT WORTH, Texas, Jan. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- American Airlines announced today it will begin new service between its Dallas/Fort Worth hub (DFW) and San Salvador, El Salvador (SAL), beginning April 7. The new route will be available for sale this Sunday, Jan. 20.

American already serves the Central American nation nonstop out of Los Angeles (LAX) and Miami (MIA). While the latter is a prime connection hub, the addition of DFW to the Salvadoran mix will really boost connection opportunities for flyers. Dallas/Fort Worth, by far, is American's largest hub.
