American Airlines Challenges United with New Flights to Sint Maarten
6/19/2025 - By SMRC
In a bold move that underscores the rising popularity of Caribbean vacation destinations, American Airlines has announced a significant expansion of its winter schedule out of Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD), including a new nonstop route to Sint Maarten's Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM).
This strategic addition places American in direct competition with United Airlines, which currently offers seasonal weekly Saturday service from ORD to SXM using a Boeing 737-700.
