American To Launch Additional Service Between Miami And San Salvador, El Salvador
MIAMI - American Airlines announced today it will start a second daily flight between Miami International Airport (MIA) and San Salvador, El Salvador ( SAL). The new flight will operate seasonally from June 11 through Aug. 24, 2009.
American, a founding member of the global oneworld® Alliance, will fly the route with its 148-seat Boeing 737-800 aircraft, which features 16 seats in Business Class and 132 seats in Economy.
“We are delighted to offer additional service between Miami and San Salvador during the high season,” said Ed Del Pozo, American’s Country Manager in El Salvador. “This additional service from Miami complements our existing service to San Salvador from Los Angeles and offers passengers flying through our Miami hub a host of additional convenient connections to other U.S cities, Europe, the Caribbean, and South America.”
American and its regional affiliate, American Eagle, currently serve 42 destinations throughout Latin America and Mexico – more than any other U.S. airline.

It is funny how this flight got the press release.
AA is also doing the following summer adds from MIA...
MIA -- KIN +1 for 4 daily
MIA -- MCO +1 for 7 daily
MIA -- PAP +1 for 4 daily
MIA -- PLS +1 for 3 daily
MIA -- TGU +1 for 2 daily
If I was doing the press releases I would have announced them all.
With JM pulling out of MIA I think MIA-KIN going to four times daily would be more newsworthy. AA is filling the void left by JM for the summer.
Hopefully one or two of these will stick around beyond the season. I am thinking KIN due to the JM pullout and MCO due to the fact that the A300s are off this route and we could really use some more capacity there.

Quoting AJMIA (Reply 1): MIA -- KIN +1 for 4 daily
Great move on AA's part as they will have the monopoly on the MIA-KIN route and will continue to dominate the majority of business traffic on the route.

Quoting SCL767 (Reply 2): Yep, and AA will profit from JM's withdrawal.
True.
I am surprised they did not add another MIA-MBJ flight as well.
The summer schedule is not complete yet and I think we may still see a few more adds.
