American Airlines to Add Memphis-Washington D.C. Frequency in January

Oct. 22, 2018

American Airlines will add an additional frequency between Memphis International Airport (MEM) and Ronald Reagan Washington International Airport (DCA) on Jan. 7. The airline will run four nonstop flights between MEM and DCA on weekdays, with one flight on Saturday and two on Sunday.

American Airlines offers nonstop flights between MEM and eight destinations: Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, New York, Philadelphia, Phoenix and Washington, D.C. Earlier this month, the airline added a second frequency between Memphis and Miami.

The additional frequency adds to continued growth for MEM, which has experienced a 5.1 percent increase in enplanements in the first quarter of its fiscal year 2018-2019, compared to the previous fiscal year. The increase represented more than 27,000 additional enplanements.
