AMERICAN LAUNCHES RECORD WINTER OPERATION AT MIA
• This winter, American will operate the largest schedule in the history of the MIA hub, with
up to 378 daily flights to 140 destinations.
• In the next two weeks the airline will launch four new international destinations from
Miami: Chetumal, Mexico (CTM); San Andres, Colombia (ADZ); Dominica (DOM) and
Anguilla (AXA), as well as more domestic flying.
MIAMI – American Airlines launched today new service from Miami (MIA) to Chetumal, Mexico
(CTM), marking the beginning of the hub’s winter operation. In the coming days the airline will
also launch new service to San Andres, Colombia (ADZ), Dominica (DOM) and Anguilla (AXA),
further strengthening the airline’s presence at MIA, its largest international gateway.
“This winter we’ve doubled-down on our commitment to Miami, hiring more than 1,500 new
team members and adding new destinations, more frequencies to existing markets and more
wide body flying,” said Juan Carlos Liscano, Vice President of MIA Hub Operations. “As a result,
American will be operating the largest schedule in the history of our Miami hub, serving more
passengers than ever before.”
With these network additions and more wide body flying, this winter the airline will operate up to
378 daily flights to 140 destinations, marking an almost 19% increase in seat capacity versus
winter 2019-2020.
“Thanks to American’s steadfast commitment over the last year and a half as our largest airline
partner, MIA has rebounded from the pandemic to become the fastest-growing airport in the
U.S. and the busiest U.S. airport for international passengers,” said Ralph Cutié, MIA Director
and CEO. “American’s new routes from MIA to destinations in Mexico, South America, and the
Caribbean will further solidify our position as the busiest U.S. gateway to the Americas.”

American’s four new international destinations launching this month— CTM, ADZ, DOM and

American also recently added more domestic flying at MIA, including seasonal Saturday-only

Syracuse, New York (SYR) and Tulsa, Oklahoma (TUL). Daily seasonal service to Salt Lake
