This winter, American Airlines will continue to grow its presence at Miami International Airport (MIA), adding two new international destinations and six new domestic routes. With Tuesday’s announcement, the airline further solidifies its position as the largest carrier at MIA, operating 341 peak daily flights this winter.

In December, the company will launch two new international routes from Miami to Chetumal, Mexico and San Andres Island, Colombia. With these new routes, American will offer 28 destinations in Mexico – the most of any U.S. carrier – and seven in Colombia.

“With more than 30 years of service, American is and always will be Miami’s local airline, and we are proud to strengthen our footprint at our MIA hub later this year,” said Juan Carlos Liscano, Vice President of MIA Hub Operations. “The new service to Chetumal and San Andres, and more domestic flights this winter, are a testament to our commitment to the economic development of our community as it continues to grow and diversify.”
