American Airlines introduces new Miami to South Caicos service, opening up international connections from the US to the idyllic island. Envoy Air will operate the route with 76-seat E175 aircraft, offering customers faster and more convenient access to Turks & Caicos. Expansion at LaGuardia with new seasonal routes, but cuts at London Heathrow as American Airlines adjusts its network strategy.

American Airlines has added a new international destination to its route network. From February 2025, the carrier will fly from Miami to South Caicos Airport (XSC) in Turks & Caicos, becoming the first international airline to touch down at the airport.

The new service will launch on February 15th, 2025, and will operate twice per week (Wednesdays and Saturdays). The flight schedule is outlined below:

Envoy Air will operate the route on behalf of American Airlines with its Embraer E175 aircraft. The latest data from ch-aviation shows that Envoy Air currently has 120 E175s in its fleet, each seating a total of 76 passengers, 12 of which are first-class seats.

In a statement reported by The Points Guy, American Airlines' Managing Director of Global Network Planning, Jason Reisinger, shared their excitement at the route launch, saying,

"American has flown to Turks and Caicos for more than 30 years and we are thrilled to announce the only nonstop service from the U.S. to South Caicos starting next February. Customers from across North America will now have faster and more convenient access to this idyllic island and all that it offers."

American Airlines' flights to and from Miami will be the only international route at South Caicos Airport and will open up international connection opportunities for passengers traveling through the airline's hub at Miami International Airport (MIA). The airport has just one other route, which is a domestic service to Providenciales International Airport (PLS), operated by InterCaribbean Airways. The short hop is just 51 miles (82 km) in length.

Providenciales International Airport is the main international gateway to Turks & Caicos. The airport sees flights from across the Caribbean and the US, as well as a handful of services from airports across Canada and the UK, including Montreal (YUL), Toronto (YYZ), and London Heathrow (LHR).

In other American Airlines news, the carrier is set to launch winter seasonal flights from LaGuardia Airport (LGA) to Tampa International Airport (TPA) and Fort Myers Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW). Both routes will begin on November 5th and run through May 4th, 2025.

American Airlines also announced that it intends to cut capacity at London Heathrow Airport (LHR) this winter. The oneworld carrier will suspend flights between its European gateway and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) for the winter season, and it will also reduce the frequency of its services between London Heathrow and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) from three down to two per day for the same period.

It now expects an average of 19 daily Heathrow flights down from 21 that were planned.
