American Airlines is poised for a record-breaking summer with 11 daily US-Italy flights.
This summer five US hubs - New York JFK, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Charlotte - will have direct links to Italy including the debut of the new Philadelphia-Naples, along with the restoration of the second daily flight between New York and Rome.
“Our transatlantic network is expanding”
“Our transatlantic network is expanding with new flights to Naples and an additional daily flight from JFK to Rome,- said José Freig, vice president international operations. -With 11 daily flights between Italy and the United States, American's summer schedule provides passengers with easier access for their summer vacations.” Visitors from the United States will have ample opportunities to explore ancient ruins, glide along the canals of Venice, bask in the sun along the Amalfi Coast, savour authentic Neapolitan pizza, or immerse themselves in Italy's latest fashion trends.
The JFK-Rome will extend the season by nearly four months
This summer, American Airlines will serve Rome Fiumicino, Milan Malpensa, Naples, and Venice. The airline operates year-round flights between Milan and New York, Rome and Philadelphia, and Rome and Dallas-Fort Worth.
The daily seasonal connection between New York JFK and Rome will commence on 31 March. The reintroduction of the second daily flight between JFK and Rome will begin on 5 June and operate until 25 October, extending the season by nearly four months.
The seasonal Chicago-Venice returns on 5 June
