In a swift turnaround, the U.S. Department of Transportation approved American Airlines' request to commence daily, nonstop flights between Shanghai and Los Angeles International Airport starting April 5, airline officials publicized Thursday.
American Airlines will be the only U.S. carrier to present nonstop service between Shanghai and Los Angeles, airline officials said. American's executives had now applied for the new route previous week.
Flights will be existing on Boeing 777 jetliners equipped with 16 first-class, 37 business-class and 194 economy-class seats.
"These new flights will enhance American's customer service offering to China and will enlarge American's schedule at Los Angeles International Airport, one of its five cornerstone cities," airline officials said in a written statement.
LAX is currently set to offer 39 new weekly overseas flights from November to April, according to airport officials.
