American plans Dallas-Beijing nonstop flights
Beginning next summer, American Airlines plans to operate nonstop flights from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport to Beijing.
Subject to approval, this will become American’s third China route out of Dallas launched in the last year, following the start of flights to Hong Kong and Shanghai.
It will also become the first to connect the two cities.
"By adding this new Beijing service, American will achieve a significant milestone in the development of its Asian network by offering nonstop service from Dallas/Fort Worth to five key markets in Asia – Beijing, Hong Kong, Seoul, Shanghai and Tokyo," said American’s chief marketing officer, Andrew Nocella.
The pending addition of Beijing and recent additions of Shanghai and Hong Kong elevate Dallas/Fort Worth to one of the primary connecting hubs between Asia and US destinations."
American also flies to Beijing from its hub at Chicago O’Hare Airport.
Boeing 777-200ER aircraft will ply the route and it becomes the 11th route connecting the US and Asia.
Driven by flights to Asia, international capacity is steadily growing at DFW with overseas traffic up 39% over the last four years.
