PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Philadelphia International Airport’s largest airline will reduce its waves of flight arrivals and departures from eight to six.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reports (https://bit.ly/2e53u5b ) by collapsing eight banks to six, American Airlines will operate 30 to 40 fewer flights a day in January than a year ago. The airline says the move is designed to improve efficiency and boost profits.
The earliest flights will leave the airport at about 8 a.m. instead of 7:30 and the last flights of the day will depart between 8 and 9 p.m. instead of 10 or later.
