American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, and United Airlines have announced the addition of nine new routes to their networks this week. These additions include both domestic and international links, marking expansions in various regions.

American Airlines has introduced three new routes. Chicago O'Hare will see two new connections: a daily Envoy Air E175 service to Bismarck starting June 5, which was previously served by American Eagle until 2018 and United Express until 2020; and a daily Envoy Air E175 service to Boise also beginning June 5, which was last operated by American Eagle until 2022 but is still flown by United Express. Additionally, Phoenix Sky Harbor will have a Saturday-only Envoy Air E175 service to Appleton starting February 15, marking the first time this airport pair has been served.

Delta Air Lines has added three routes as well. From Austin, a growing hub for Delta with plans for up to 57 daily departures in summer 2025, there will be a new daily SkyWest E175 route to Jacksonville starting May 7. This replaces American/American Eagle's previous service that ended in January 2024. New York LaGuardia will gain two connections: a daily Endeavor Air CRJ900 flight to Lexington from May 7 and another daily Endeavor Air CRJ900 flight to Huntsville from April 14. Both cities are regaining New York City flights after several years.

Lastly, Washington Dulles will have double daily CommuteAir ERJ145 flights to Manchester (NH) beginning May 30.

Several route cessations were also noted: Newark-Albany, Newark-Manchester (NH), and Newark-Providence are all set to end on March 29.
