American Airlines is swapping airports for some flights in New York.<\/p>\n
The Oneworld alliance carrier will move its seasonal nonstop to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport (BZN) from New York’s LaGuardia Airport (LGA) to John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in 2027. The reason? The flight can operate on more than just Saturdays from JFK whereas it is restricted to that one day of the week from LGA.<\/p>\n
The swap is part of a larger set of adjustments to American’s map for next year. The airline will end six routes \u2014 including LGA-BZN \u2014 and add two routes from JFK as it tweaks its schedule in an effort to return to consistent profitability.<\/p>\n

American last flew the JFK-SEA route in 2019.<\/p>\n SEA is the main hub of American’s partner and fellow Oneworld member<\/a><\/span> Alaska Airlines. The airlines last week unveiled plans for Alaska to join two of American’s joint ventures<\/a><\/span> across both the Atlantic and Pacific in the coming years.<\/p>\n JV membership allows airlines to coordinate schedules, fares and other commercial activities in a specific market, for example the U.S. to Europe.<\/p>\n “American is continuing to build a network from New York that offers customers more choice and more ways to connect to the destinations they care about,” Jason Reisinger, the managing director of global network planning at American, said in a statement. The additions “enhances our offering from JFK and complements the more than 100 destinations we serve nonstop from New York.”<\/p>\n Reward your inbox with the TPG Daily newsletter<\/p>\n Join over 700,000 readers for breaking news, in-depth guides and exclusive deals from TPG\u2019s experts<\/p>\nNew York JFK expansion<\/h2>\n
