Travelers bound for New York City will have another option this fall out of the Sarasota-Bradenton International Airport. American Airlines is adding a daily, nonstop flight to LaGuardia Airport (LGA) starting Nov. 5.

This marks the sixth nonstop flight for American Airlines out of SRQ, according to President/CEO of SRQ Rick Piccolo.

Other nonstop destinations from American include Charlotte, North Carolina (CLT); Chicago (ORD); Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas (DFW); Philadelphia (PHL); and Washington, D.C. (DCA).

“American looks forward to beginning service to New York LaGuardia Airport starting this November,” says Joe Sottile, American’s director of domestic network planning, in a statement. “With up to 10 daily flights from SRQ, American’s schedule offers customers convenient one-stop access to more than 200 destinations across our comprehensive global network.”
