American Airlines Cancels Hundreds of Flights for August
Some American Airlines passengers might see changes at the airport, as the airline canceled some routes for August. The airline has been canceling hundreds of flights out of O'Hare Airport in Chicago, according to AZ Central. American Airlines' routes were crunched by a site called Cirium, which found that "more than 80 routes out of O'Hare will operate with fewer flights and/or fewer seats starting in August," AZ Central reported. The route between O'Hare and Phoenix was especially affected, with 30 fewer flights, according to AZ Central. American "canceled about 800 flights scheduled for August between Chicago O'Hare and other airports, representing a loss of about 76,000 seats," AZ Central reported, citing the Cirium data. American Airlines Offers Context However, the airline touts the number of daily flights it still offers. "American has not made any recent adjustments to its flight schedules for August. We are proud to offer up to 6,700 daily flights, more than any other airline, to help connect travelers to their next vacation before the summer season starts to wind down," the airline told Men's Journal in an email on July 23. The key word in American Airlines' statement is "recent." In May, the airline cut at least 70 routes, with the changes going into effect in August. However, the airline offers some context. "American's approach to network and schedule planning is consistent with industry practices. A placeholder schedule is published 331 days in advance and then adjustments are made closer in based on the schedule we intend to operate," a spokesperson for American Airlines told Men's Journal. "We publish our final schedule approximately 100 days in advance. American is proud to offer customers the largest network of any U.S. airline, with up to 6,700 daily departures," the airline noted. "In August: American offers up to nine flights per day between PHX and ORD, twice as many as our closest competitor who offers only four daily flights on that route." They continued, "We also want to emphasize that there is no customer impact as a result of these changes as the changes were made several months prior. This year alone we've added more than 20 new routes from Chicago including the only nonstop from Chicago to Naples, Italy (NAP) – the gateway to Italy's picturesque Amalfi coast – and have added new flights to Spain and more flights to popular destinations in Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America (including recent additions of Mexico City and Queretaro)." The most affected cities were "Detroit, Newark, Phoenix, Cleveland and Albuquerque," AZ Central reported. All the same, American will operate 16.5% more weekly flights out of Chicago-O'Hare in August. It's an aviation trend. According to Travel and Tour World, other airlines have also announced "drastic reductions" to their flights and routes starting in August. United, JetBlue, and Avelo were the airlines listed. "These adjustments come as a result of shifting demand patterns, economic pressures, and operational constraints," the site reported. Cirium also analyzes airlines for their on-time percentages. Aeromexico performed best in that review. "Mexico's flag carrier topped the global category, followed by Saudia, and Delta Air Lines," Cirium Airlines Cancels Hundreds of Flights for August first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 23, 2025 Solve the daily Crossword

Man United stars jet off to the US - with Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha on board but Bomb Squad left behind - for pre-season tour ahead of Ruben Amorim's first full season
Man United players were all smiles as they jetted off to the United States for the pre-season Summer Series tournament in the country. New signings Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha had spots on the plane and were snapped boarding alongside their team-mates, while the former sat next to international team-mate Andre Onana for take-off. Cunha, meanwhile, posed alongside Tom Heaton and Luke Shaw and he continues to settle in at his new side, having made his debut against Leeds in United's first pre-season game at the weekend. Cunha announced the birth of his baby daughter on social media on Monday night, sparking speculation that he might miss the start of United's three-game trip to America. But United have confirmed their 32-man travelling party and the 25-year-old Brazilian joined his team-mates on the team flight to O'Hare International Airport, landing in Chicago on Tuesday evening. There were notable absentees, however, with United's Bomb Squad left behind, as well as Harry Maguire. Maguire has stayed behind to attend to a personal matter although it's hoped that the England defender will be able to join up with the tour at some stage. He posted a message on social media on Tuesday saying: 'All is fine now. I will be travelling tomorrow to meet up with the squad, thanks for your concern.' Lisandro Martinez will travel but is unlikely to play as he continues his rehabilitation from a cruciate ligament injury. United's latest new signing, Mbeumo, was on the plane after completing his £71million move from Brentford just in time for the tour which sees United compete in the Premier League Summer Series against West Ham in New Jersey, Bournemouth in Chicago and Everton in Atlanta. As expected, Ruben Amorim's 'bomb squad' have been left behind to train at Carrington as Alejandro Garnacho, Jadon Sancho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia seek moves away from Old Trafford this summer. Marcus Rashford is already in Barcelona ahead of his unveiling on Wednesday. United's third signing of the summer, Paraguayan left back Diego Leon, has also been included on the tour along with some of United's other promising youngsters, Tyler Fredricson, Reece Munro, Jack Fletcher, Sekou Kone, Bendito Mantato, Chido Obi and Ethan Williams. Ruben Amorim and his players will be based in Chicago before facing West Ham in their opening game in New Jersey on Saturday. As expected the four remaining of the 'Bomb Squad', including Alejandro Garnacho (left) and Jadon Sancho (right) have been left behind at Carrington It's a vital summer for Amorim and his players, with the Portuguese not able to afford a season as poor as the last, which saw him take over from Erik ten Hag in the hotseat. United finished 15th in the Premier League, also missing out in the Europa League final and failing to qualify for Europe next season. They have four more pre-season games until they kick off their new campaign on August 17, facing the three sides in the Summer Series before taking on Fiorentina at Old Trafford on August 9.
