There’s a shake-up happening in the world of regional airlines.<\/p>\n

Mesa Airlines, a regional carrier based in Phoenix, will no longer fly for American Airlines as of April 3, 2023.<\/p>\n

Historically, Mesa has operated flights on behalf of American Eagle<\/a> (the carrier’s regional brand ) out of American’s Dallas\/Fort Worth and Phoenix hubs. These flights included short puddle jumpers to places like El Paso, Texas, and Lawton, Oklahoma.<\/p>\n
