American Airlines has announced seasonal routes to outdoor destinations in Canada and Montana. The flights embark on Saturdays only and serve five locations during mostly summer months. The airline will utilize Embraer E175 and Boeing 737 MAX8 aircraft, depending on the route. Once the flights begin, American will be the only carrier serving all five locations.

The flights will operate between the following cities:

  • New York (LGA) and Kalispell, Montana (FCA): June 7 to August 30
  • New York (LGA) and Bozeman, Montana (BZN): June 7 to  August 30
  • New York (LGA) and Calgary, Canada (YYC): June 7 to August 30
  • Dallas (DFW) and Québec City, Canada (YQB): August 9 to November 1
  • Chicago (ORD) and Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada (YHZ): June 21 to October 24

All flights serving New York will use Boeing 737 MAX8 aircraft, while the remaining will operate Embraer E175s with 2-2 Economy seating. 

The Bozeman route means the Montana city will have more nonstop routes than ever during summer 2025. JetBlue and Delta also offer direct flights from John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) in New York, and United does the same from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). United also provides additional flights during peak summer times.
