US Airways Adds To Reagan Airport Service
US Airways (NYSE: LCC) said it has begun non-stop service to five new communities from Washington, D.C.'s Reagan National Airport: Augusta, Ga., Minneapolis, Minn., Fayetteville, Ark., Montreal and Toronto.
In addition to the new service, US Airways has re-timed its daily non-stop flight between Reagan National and San Diego that began on June 8. Starting TODAY, the flight, which was previously operated at night on 124-seat Airbus A319 aircraft, will depart Washington, D.C.at 8: 55 a.m. and San Diego at 12:30 p.m. and will be operated on 150-seat Airbus A320 aircraft. On March 25, US Airways began expanded service from Washington, D.C. to 14 destinations from Reagan National Airport. The airline also added non-stop flights between Reagan National and Cincinnati and Des Moines, Iowa in May. With the start of the new service, 99 percent of the airline's capacity will operate to or from its core service areas of Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, Phoenix and Charlotte, N.C. and the US Airways Shuttle, which operates hourly between Washington, Boston and New York's La Guardia Airport. This represents a 16 percentage point change from 2006, when, following the merger of US Airways and America West Airlines, only 83 percent of the airline's capacity touched its core focus areas and US Airways Shuttle. US Airways, along with US Airways Shuttle and US Airways Express, operates more than 3,200 flights per day and serves more than 200 communities in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe, the Middle East, the Caribbean, Central and South America.
