American Airlines has announced the resumption of its flights between Miami International Airport and Sarasota Bradenton International Airport. This marks the airline's return to this route after a 16-year hiatus, with services set to commence in early November.

The new daily flights will be operated using Embraer E175 regional jets by Envoy Air under the American Eagle brand. "American Airlines is pleased to connect Sarasota with our Miami hub," said Jordan Pack, Director of Domestic Network Planning at American Airlines. He emphasized Miami's role as a gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean, offering connections to over 60 destinations.

According to historical scheduling data from Cirium, American Airlines last flew this route in January 2009 using ATR 72 twin turboprop airliners operated by Skyward Express. The upcoming service will feature Embraer E175 jets configured with 76 seats: 12 in domestic first class and 64 in economy class.
