American Airlines Announces Return of Sarasota-Miami Route

American Airlines is one of the largest airlines in the U.S., and the company has a rich history that dates back to 1926.

That year, aviator Charles A. Lindbergh, the chief pilot of Robertson Aircraft Corporation, started American Airlines when he “stowed a bag of mail in his DH-4 biplane” and flew from St. Louis to Chicago, according to the airline.

Today, American Airlines serves more than 60 countries across the world and is a founding member of the oneworld Alliance, whose member airlines “work together to deliver consistently a superior, seamless travel experience, with special privileges and rewards for frequent flyers, including earning and redeeming miles and points across the entire alliance network.”

With so much history, American has changed up its routes a lot over the past nearly 100 years.

Now, the airline has announced that it’s bringing back a popular route that has been unavailable for 16 years.

American Airlines will launch daily non-stop service from Sarasota Bradenton international Airport in Sarasota, FL, to Miami, FL, starting November 3, 2025.

The daily flights will be on a 76-seat Embraer 175 jet that offers first class, a main cabin extra and a main cabin, according to the airline. 

The Miami flight will be American Airlines’ sixth nonstop destination from the Sarasota Bradenton International Airport.

“American is pleased to connect Sarasota with our Miami hub,” Jordan Pack, American’s director of domestic network planning, said in a statement about the announcement.

“Miami is our gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean, and with this service, customers will be able to connect to more than 60 destinations in the region to explore vibrant Puerto Rico, relax on the beaches of Aruba, or taste the coffee in Colombia and much more.”

American Airlines’ corporate headquarters are in Fort Worth, Texas. The airline employs 130,000 team members around the world.
