Will Rogers International Airport in Oklahoma City will soon welcome its first international flights as part of American Airlines' network expansion. On November 8, 2025, American Airlines will launch direct services from Oklahoma City to Cancun International Airport. This route marks the first nonstop international flight from Oklahoma, which previously required passengers to take connecting flights via major hubs.
The airport has prepared for this new operation by opening a new customs facility earlier in the year. The airport's leadership and local government officials have expressed optimism about the development. Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt described the international service as a milestone for the city and acknowledged American Airlines as the driving force behind the route.
American Airlines has planned to operate this route once a week on Saturdays, using Boeing 737 family jets, accommodating the peak demand for leisure travelers heading to Cancun. Tickets went on sale in early April.
