CHICAGO<\/strong> – American Airlines is slashing hundreds of flights from Chicago O\u2019Hare International Airport<\/a> this August, according to reporting from The Arizona Republic.<\/a><\/p>\n

What we know:<\/p>\n

Flight schedule data from Cirium, shared with the newspaper<\/a>, showed American has removed about 800 flights out of O\u2019Hare for August, cutting roughly 76,000 seats. Among the routes most-affected by flight cuts are Detroit, Newark, Cleveland, Albuquerque \u2014 and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.<\/p>\n

An American Airlines spokesperson told The Arizona Republic that the reductions reflect the airline\u2019s finalized schedule, which is typically set 100 days in advance. Airlines often start with a placeholder schedule nearly a year ahead and then adjust based on demand and operational factors like staffing, the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

American is locked in a legal dispute<\/a> with the city of Chicago over gate assignments at O\u2019Hare. The airline sued the city, claiming officials violated a use and lease agreement when United Airlines was awarded five additional gates earlier this year, which would cost American four gates.<\/p>\n

Despite the lawsuit, American has added at least 22 new destinations from O’Hare this year.<\/p>\n
