This flight will go a long way to meeting the demand for service from RDU to the West Coast,” said Teresa Damiano, deputy airport director for marketing and customer service. “It also says a lot about American’s confidence in our region that it designated RDU as part of its expansion of service to its five hubs.”

American Airlines will operate the service on its Boeing 737-800 featuring the Boeing Sky Interior andMain Cabin Extra feature, which enhance the passenger on-flight experience.
