Montevideo and Miami are once again connected by a direct flight as American Airlines announces the resumption of its operations in the South American country.
Although the service will only operate from November 22, 2024, to March 29, 2025, it brings good news for financial industry representatives who divide their working hours between the two cities.
“The airline will increase its seasonal operation in Montevideo by 14% compared to last year,” says a statement accessed by Funds Society.
Additionally, it will operate three times a week, increasing to daily flights between December 18, 2024, and February 13, 2025.
The service will use a Boeing 787-8 aircraft with a capacity for 234 passengers, departing from Miami International Airport at 11:00 PM (local time) to arrive in Montevideo at 10:00 AM (local time) the following day.
Conversely, flights departing from Carrasco Airport will leave at 11:25 PM (Uruguay time) to arrive in Miami at approximately 7:00 AM (local time) the next day.
“We are pleased that American Airlines is resuming operations and increasing frequencies to further enhance its offerings. We are proud of the work done with the authorities and the airline to continue boosting air transport and connecting Uruguay to the world,” said Diego Arrosa, CEO of Aeropuertos Uruguay.
