American Eagle, the regional affiliate of
American Airlines, has launched a nonstop jet service from Miami
International Airport (MIA) to Charleston, S.C. and Knoxville,
Tenn., as well as to Eleuthera and Treasure Cay in the Bahamas. A
new service to Governor's Harbour, Bahamas, begins today 20
November 2009.
With these additions, American and American Eagle will operate 276
daily flights from the Miami hub.
"New service is always
welcome, since it expands our reach into the marketplace and
further strengthens Miami as a destination," said William D.
Talbert III, President & CEO of the Greater Miami Convention &
Visitors Bureau. "The strength of the destination continues to be
our domestic and international appeal as a tropical and
cosmopolitan destination and our role as a critical gateway to the
Americas. We fully recognize the importance of American and
American Eagle in Miami, and we are making significant investments
to ensure their continued growth and are truly appreciative that
they are continuing to invest in our community as well."
These five new markets offer travelers a variety of options
from Miami:
Charleston - Rich in history and a
favorite tourist destination for those seeking luxury hotels,
award-winning restaurants and quality shopping, Charleston also
boasts a significant military presence, home to The Citadel
Military College and the Charleston Air Force base. In addition to
this new daily flight from Miami, American Eagle serves Charleston
with daily non-stop flights from its hub in Dallas/Fort Worth
(DFW).
Knoxville - Set in the heart of the Great
Smoky Mountains, visitors can experience the beauty that the fall
season brings to East Tennessee. While there visitors can take in
a University of Tennessee Volunteers football game or any number
of cultural events, from blues to bluegrass.
Eleuthera,
Treasure Cay and Governor's Harbour, Bahamas - Known collectively
as the "Out Islands", these three new destinations offer absolute
relaxation and endless unspoiled beaches. In addition to American
Eagle's current Bahamian service to Nassau, Freeport, Marsh
Harbour and Georgetown, these new destinations provide more
choices to the Bahamas than ever before.
To celebrate
this new service from Miami, American is offering double
AAdvantage miles to all of these new destinations.
