American Airline

American Airlines is offering travelers new ways to experience Europe, with several new routes launching next summer. Whether you dream of standing before the Colosseum in Rome or admiring the artwork at Madrid’s Prado Museum, the airline is expanding its flight options to key European destinations.

Five New Routes from U.S. Hubs

Starting on March 30, 2025, American Airlines will connect Chicago O’Hare to Madrid with a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner. By May 23, 2025, travelers can fly from Philadelphia to both Edinburgh and Milan, also on Boeing 787-8s. The carrier will continue expanding its European network with flights from Charlotte to Athens on June 5, and a Miami-to-Rome service launching a month later, both of which will be operated using Boeing 777-200s.

Tickets and Availability

Tickets for all five new routes, which will operate daily throughout the summer of 2025, will be available for purchase starting September 9, 2024. Travelers eager to secure their flights to Europe can book in advance, ensuring they don’t miss out on these convenient new connections.

Strategic Expansion in Core Markets

“We’re seeing a lot of success in these core markets,” said Brian Znotins, American’s senior vice president of network and schedule planning. American already offers flights to Athens, Madrid, Milan, and Rome from other U.S. hubs, and these new routes will further strengthen the airline’s presence in Europe. While the Edinburgh route hasn’t been available since 2019, American is now reviving the service after suspending it during the pandemic, when it retired its Boeing 757 and 767 fleets.

Madrid Flights and Iberia Connections

Travelers flying to Madrid will benefit from convenient connections throughout Europe thanks to American’s partnership with Iberia, the Spanish airline that offers flights to 70 destinations across the continent. This includes popular summer getaways such as Ibiza, Menorca, and Porto, making it easier for passengers to explore multiple destinations.

Returning and Extended Summer Routes

In addition to the five new routes, American Airlines plans to bring back flights to Copenhagen, Naples, and Nice from its Philadelphia hub next summer. These routes, which debuted as seasonal flights this past summer, will return as popular options for travelers.

Furthermore, American will extend its winter Miami-to-Paris flight through the summer and will begin its summer services from Dallas-Fort Worth to Barcelona, and from Philadelphia to Athens earlier than expected, with a March 30 start. Flights to Naples from Philadelphia will also be available earlier, beginning in May instead of the originally planned June launch.

Conclusion

With these new and returning routes, American Airlines is significantly expanding its European network for summer 2025. Whether you’re planning to visit iconic cultural landmarks or enjoy a Mediterranean getaway, these added flight options make it easier to explore Europe from multiple U.S. cities. Tickets go on sale in September, so travelers have ample time to book and prepare for their next European adventure.
