American Airlines continues its support of customers affected by the FAA-mandated airspace closure in the Eastern Caribbean with more flights, more seats and limited-time interisland flying. The airline has added nearly 2,000 more seats — a total of nearly 7,000 seats with 43 extra flights — to boost capacity and expand access for customers who need to travel between the Eastern Caribbean and U.S.
