Contained in a SEC other merger related document filed today:
Beginning Sunday, April 14, customers can book flights on routes operated with new Embraer 175 aircraft on regional service between Chicago O'Hare (ORD) and Albuquerque (ABQ), New Orleans (MSY) and Pittsburgh (PIT). The flights will be available for travel starting Aug. 1. Effective Aug. 27, service from ORD on the E175s will expand to Kansas City (MCI), Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP), Toronto, Canada (YYZ), and Washington Reagan National (DCA). And on Oct. 1, service will further expand from ORD to Houston Intercontinental (IAH), Newark (EWR), Philadelphia (PHL), Salt Lake City (SLC) and San Antonio (SAT). As previously announced, the aircraft are operating under a 12-year capacity purchase agreement with Republic Airline Inc. to provide large regional jet flying for American under the American Eagle brand.
DEN and XNA will be the only gateways to LA for L-Eagle.
