Higher fuel costs are forcing airlines to trim service, including a temporary route suspension at Pittsburgh International Airport

American Airlines will suspend its daily nonstop service between Pittsburgh and Los Angeles from August 5th through October 4th as airlines grapple with rising fuel costs. The route was launched in April of last year, marking American's first daily nonstop service between Pittsburgh and Los Angeles since 2017. Travelers will still have options during the suspension. Pittsburgh International Airport officials confirmed to KDKA Radio that Breeze Airways currently offers nonstop service on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays, while United Airlines also provides nonstop flights to Los Angeles.
