The airline said it has adjusted schedules for select routes in August and September.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmerican is not suspending any routes indefinitely as part of this adjustment and will continue to proudly offer an industry-leading network with more flights than any other U.S. airline,\u201d an American Airlines spokesperson told the business publication Fast Company.<\/p>\n

The temporary suspensions will affect nonstop service between LAX and Cleveland, Columbus, Pittsburgh and Washington Dulles. American also said it will temporarily suspend service between Charlotte and Ontario (ONT), as well as Charlotte and Sacramento.<\/p>\n
