OK perhaps that was dramatic but only one non-stop from JFK when there used to be multiple?
Also, on our last flight, we upgraded to business, only to learn that the plane was downgraded the day of flight, so half of us were accommodated and the other sat in the back.
In comparison to JetBlue with a few nonstops from JFK and knowing that with a narrow range of fleet types, you know what a/c you’ll get and what to expect.
Sorry if I was being a bit dramatic. But AA just seems to be abandoning it the Caribbean (for a few years now) to concentrate on more profitable routes, IMHO
It is a business, they should concentrate on whatever routes provide the most profit.
Until there is more availability of lodging on SXM and a more fully functioning airport, there is likely not the need for increased air service from any airline. Not too wise or profitable to fly planes at much less than full capacity.
Those who are spoiled by the lower fares and non-stop service from the NYC area are just getting a small taste of what the majority of others experience when traveling to SXM.
