American Airlines (AAMRQ) has signed a 12-year capacity purchase agreement with Republic Airways Holdings (RJET) to provide large regional jet flying for the first time in the company's history.

The aircraft, which will be branded with the newly revealed American Eagle livery and operated by the Republic Airlines subsidiary of Republic Airways Holdings, will phase into operation at approximately two to three aircraft per month beginning in mid-2013.

| 05:44 EDT | | AAMRQ | U.S. airlines' restructuring means less routes, WSJ reports
A decade of restructuring in the U.S. airline industry has resulted in a sharp reduction in air service that is curtailing traveler choice and some local economies even as it improves the industry's health, an MIT study shows, reports the Wall Street Journal. From 2007 through last year, U.S. airlines cut the number of scheduled domestic flights by 14%. The number of seats offered fell by slightly less, as airlines pushed passengers onto bigger planes, says the study. Reference Link |
