American Airlines is the latest US airline to take delivery of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. It has now announced the initial routes which the type will operate on.
Like most airlines, American will operate its 787s initially on domestic sectors to gain crew familiarity on the type before it embarks on long haul flying. The aircraft will be based at Dallas Ft Worth Airport and fly on the following routes:
- Dallas Ft Worth – Chicago O’Hare – Starts 7th May
- Dallas Ft Worth – Beijing Capital – Starts 2nd June
- Dallas Ft Worth – Buenos Aires – Starts 4th June
Customers can start booking 787 flights beginning 14th February. American will deploy the 787 to additional markets in 2015 as it takes delivery of new aircraft.
American has placed firm orders for 42 Boeing 787 aircraft, with the right to acquire an additional 58.
