Each seat has a width of 21” and extends into a 77” bed. The aircraft also has 24 recliner seats in the premium-economy cabin, which are 19” wide and have 38” of seat pitch. There are 66 seats in the Main Cabin Extra premium-economy lite section and 146 in coach.
In addition to the new Tel Aviv service, the Fort Worth-based carrier said it plans to add service from Miami to Paramaribo, Suriname, from Charlotte to Samaná in the Dominican Republic, and from Los Angeles to Cancun, Mexico.
American also said it would add new service linking Dallas with Sint Maarten, Saint Lucia, and Mérida.
