American Airlines to resume flights to Athens on August 5

Initially slated to resume service to Athens in early July from its Chicago hub, American Airlines has announced it will cancel all of July’s flights and resume service to the Greek capital on August 5.

In a company statement, American Airlines admitted that although domestic travel is slowly bouncing back in the United States, international travel continues to be “diminished” and its schedule restructure reflects a low demand for international travel.

The revised schedule that is included in the company statement lists the Chicago O’Hare flight to Athens as resuming August 5– more than a month after it was supposed to resume its daily service.

In an earlier announcement, the company had already announced the complete cancellation of its Philadelphia to Athens service for the entire summer 2020 season. (pappaspost)
