American Airlines announced Oct. 3 that it will offer daily nonstop flights from Yuma International Airport, with service to Dallas Fort Worth. The daily nonstop service between Yuma and Dallas Fort Worth will begin March with an early morning departing flight and early evening return flight. The new route will be served by a CRJ900 with 9 first class seats and 60-64 main cabin seats.
“Yuma International Airport has been focused on increased commercial air service and routes for the Yuma community and desert southwest for several years,” said Airport Director, Gladys Brown. “The new route to Dallas Fort Worth provides a critical link between Yuma, the mid-west, the east coast as well as Caribbean connectivity for government, business and leisure travelers."
"The route to DFW will provide connectivity to 95 Domestic Cities and 42 International Destinations that are not currently serviced by our current route through PHX and our team is so excited about it! I want to thank American Airlines and the Yuma community for its continued support and consideration to Think Yuma First and Fly Yuma.”
These direct flights from Yuma to Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) will begin on March 3, 2019. Reservations can be made for March 2019 departures as early as this weekend. DFW is known today as one of the most frequently visited super-hub airports in the works welcoming over 69 million customers annually.
American Airlines will continue to offer multiple, daily nonstop flights from Yuma to Phoenix Sky Harbor.
