American Airlines has increased the number of flights it will have when it begins service at Provo Airport on Oct. 7. Instead of the originally announced two flights per day to American’s Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport hub, the airline will have three flights. American will also have one flight daily to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
“Momentum continues to soar at the Provo Airport with a third daily American flight making it even more possible to fly from Provo to anywhere in the world,” said Provo Mayor Michelle Kaufusi. “The power of three daily flights means local travelers have even more of an opportunity to connect to American’s vast network at DFW, which will be valuable to both business and leisure travelers.”
“The efficient travel times featured at the Provo Airport promise greater convenience for the travel journey. Expedited travel time frees up opportunity to explore Provo’s unique destinations or conduct business,” said Brian Torgersen, Provo Airport director.
American’s Provo service will be operated using 65-seat Bombardier CRJ 700 regional jet aircraft, offering nine business class, 12 Main Cabin Extra and 44 economy class seats.
