American Expands European Network for Summer 2025

DALLAS — American Airlines (AA) today announced that beginning in May 2025, it will expand its European network with additional routes to Rome (ROM), Venice (VCE), and Naples (NAP) in Italy.

“As Italy continues to remain popular for summertime travel, American is making it easier than ever for customers to shop, dine or unwind in their favorite destinations,” said Brian Znotins, American’s Senior Vice President of Network and Schedule Planning.

In 2025, AA will become the only airline flying nonstop from Chicago (ORD) to NAP, offering more seats to NAP than any other US airline.

Also, starting June 5, AA will offer its first-ever nonstop flight from Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) to VCE. This is in addition to existing service from Philadelphia (PHL), which provides one-stop connections to VCE from more than 230 destinations in North America.

American’s new service between MIA and FCO will start in June instead of July, as previously announced. To complement its daily year-round service from PHL, American will operate a second daily summer flight to FCO.

Tickets will be available starting Nov. 4 on aa.com and American’s mobile app.
