Even more travelers flying American Airlines will be able to skip security lines at PHL soon

Travelers flying with American out of PHL can clear security at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport and Wilmington Airport , and then ride a Landline Company bus to PHL to catch their flight, AVP and the Delaware River and Bay Authority announced this week.“We can’t wait to greet new guests from Wilmington and Wilkes-Barre Scranton airports,” PHL CEO Atif Saeed said in a statement. “Landline has been a game changer for regional passengers.

When travelers book a flight online that originates at their local airport, they’ll see options to connect via a bus to PHL to catch an American flight. “Being able to start your trip from and connect through Philadelphia alleviates some of the stress when starting your travel from a larger airport,” Carl R. Beardsley Jr., executive director of the airport,

The program also avoids having several people drive or take a car to the airport, which can have an environmental benefit, says Nicholas Johnson, vice president and head of revenue at Landline.Although the air travel industry took a hit during the pandemic, PHL expects passenger volume to increase by 18% between June and August compared to last summer, putting it on par with 2019 levels, according to a statement from the airport on Thursday.
