American Airlines to Pack More People on Planes
American Airlines Group (NASDAQ: AAL) said Friday it intends to lift capacity restrictions and offer all seats for sale beginning July 1 as the industry continues to balance a need to boost revenue with efforts to assure passengers it is safe to fly.
American currently is limiting seating capacity to 85% on flights, including blocking off middle seats in the main cabin. But American in a statement said that it would book to capacity beginning July 1, while offering passengers some flexibility to choose other options if they would prefer to not be on a full flight.
