American Airlines Adding Non-stop, Same-day Flight to Reagan National

Business travelers wanting to go from Alabama’s capital to Washington, D.C. will have a new option in January 2020, when American Airlines will add a same-day, return flight between Montgomery Regional Airport (MGM) and Reagan National Airport (DCA).

American began non-stop service from MGM to DCA in June 2018. The airline’s current flight patterns typically require passengers to remain overnight, before returning to Montgomery. The new schedule offers more flexibility for corporate customers, who can depart on an early morning flight and return home in time for the nightly news.

“When we announced the non-stop service to Washington, D.C. last year, we were confident that the flights would perform well. Today, we are pleased that MGM travelers can continue to enjoy access to our nation’s capital with the added convenience of returning home to Montgomery later on the same day,” said Tammy Knight Fleming, Montgomery Airport Authority chair.

The non-stop, same-day flights from MGM to DCA are currently available for purchase at aa.com. The schedule for these flights, will be effective for travel beginning next year, on Tuesday, January 7, 2020.
