American Airlines is planning to launch a new route connecting Dallas with Beijing.
The carrier has filed an application with the US Department of Transportation to operate the route, with flights expected to commence in summer 2015.
“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 Andrew Nocella, American’s chief marketing officer.
“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 destinations within the US as well as Mexico, Central and South America.”
The new direct service between Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport and Beijing Capital International Airport will be operated using a Boeing 777-200ER aircraft fitted with flat-bed seats in business class seats and Wi-Fi throughout.
The new flight from DFW will also complement American’s existing service from Chicago to Beijing and will become American’s 11th route between the US and Asia.
This route will form part of American’s joint business agreement with Japan Airlines.
