American Airlines is set to make mass, sweeping changes to flights departing from Washington National Airport in Washington, D.C. The move is set to see the frequency of flights departing from Washington National Airport to other domestic destinations cut in several circumstances. As many as 24 different routes leaving Washington are set to be affected, meaning that regular travelers out of D.C. may be forced to find alternative carriers or travel plans in the new year.
However, whilst there may be hundreds of flights affected by America’s Washington cuts, the airline is also boosting other routes departing from the airport, giving travelers something to cheer about this holiday season. Here’s a look at which Washington routes are being cut and which are set to be increased in 2022.
