SRQ to add new daily flight to New York City

Travelers bound for New York City will have another option this fall out of the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. American Airlines is adding a daily, nonstop flight to LaGuardia Airport (LGA) starting Nov. 5.

This marks the sixth nonstop flight for American Airlines out of SRQ, according to President and CEO of SRQ Rick Piccolo.

Other nonstop destinations from American include Charlotte, North Carolina (CLT); Chicago (ORD); Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas (DFW); Philadelphia (PHL); and Washington, D.C. (DCA).

“American looks forward to beginning service to New York LaGuardia Airport starting this November,” said Joe Sottile, American’s director of domestic network planning, in a statement. “With up to 10 daily flights from SRQ, American’s schedule offers customers convenient one-stop access to more than 200 destinations across our comprehensive global network.”
