April 26 (Reuters) - American Airlines ( AAL ) will be
making adjustments to certain routes in the second half of 2024
and the first quarter of 2025, the carrier said on Friday,
citing ongoing Boeing 787 delivery delays.
"We're making these adjustments now to ensure we're able to
re-accommodate customers on affected flights," the company said.
The carrier added that it was proactively reaching out to
impacted customers and would offer affected customers alternate
arrangements.
The move comes a day after peer Southwest Airlines ( LUV )
said that it will shut operations at some airports as a result
of the 787 delivery issues.
Reuters reported earlier this month that the output of
Boeing's ( BA ) 737 MAX had fallen sharply on increased production
checks by U.S. regulators.
American Airlines ( AAL ) said that the route adjustments will not
cease service in any of its destinations and the airline will
continue to offer service on 55 long-haul international routes
this winter.
