The airline continues to make cuts.
, The Points Guy reported. Three routes are getting the ax this fall, starting Nov. 3, including one route from Dallas, Texas, to Jorge Chavez International Airport in Lima, Peru; and two Colombian routes from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City: Medellin and Cali. Additionally, service from Seattle to Bangalore, India was set to return for the first time since 2012, but was postponed once again, the TPG said.
"Reduced demand" was cited as the primary reason for the international cancellations, while the war between Russia and Ukraine was noted as the reason for holding off on reinstating the Seattle-Bangalore route. Now, American Airlines is pointing to another reason for the new cuts.4 PM production / Shutterstock
If you live in New York or Ohio, you might need to reconfigure your travel plans. Starting Sept. 7, American Airlines will no longer be flying to Islip, New York ; Ithaca, New York ; and Toledo, Ohio . And while the airline industry is facing a slew of issues, the primary reason for these cuts is the regional pilot shortage, according to a statement from a spokesperson to TPG.
"In response to the regional pilot shortage affecting the airline industry, American Airlines has made the difficult decision to end service in Islip and Ithaca, New York, and Toledo, Ohio, effective Sept. 7," the airline said. "We're extremely grateful for the care and service our team members provided to our customers in Islip, Ithaca and Toledo, and are working closely with them during this time. We'll proactively reach out to customers scheduled to travel after this date to offer alternate arrangements," the spokesperson added.
