American Eagle Airlines Announces Additional Flight to New Mexico’s Capital

Additional Nonstop Service on American Eagle from Dallas/Fort Worth to Santa Fe, N.M., begins Nov. 19

FORT WORTH, Texas — American Eagle Airlines announced today that it will add a second daily flight between Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Santa Fe Municipal Airport (SAF), beginning Nov. 19.

American Eagle will operate the service with 50-seat Embraer ERJ-145 jets.

This additional service will be available just in time for the holidays and ski season at the beautiful Taos Ski Valley resorts. And, the new afternoon flight offers convenient connections to and from American’s destinations on the East Coast.

“We have received a very positive response from our customers to our first daily nonstop flight from Dallas/Fort Worth to Santa Fe,” said Gary Foss, Vice President – Planning, Marketing and Sales for American’s Regional Network. “So, we’re delighted to double our service from North Texas to New Mexico’s capital.”

“American Eagle’s decision to expand its service to Santa Fe is great news for the state,” New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson said. “I’m pleased that the Dallas/Fort Worth flight has taken off so quickly, giving New Mexicans more travel options and making it easier for visitors to northern New Mexico. I look forward to this new flight and our continued relationship with American Eagle.”

“The service provided by American Eagle has been outstanding,” said Santa Fe Mayor David Coss. “We are very excited about having this new flight, which will provide greater flexibility when traveling to and from Santa Fe.”
