Effective immediately, US airlines are allowed an extra 21 weekly flights between the US and Argentina for a total of 77. Effective 2009, they will be allowed 112.

Look for AA to apply for 7 to 14 of those.
 
Looking at what's happening with the Pacific, Europe and now Argentina, it seems AA could exploit some pretty lucrative ventures if they had more aircraft.

If they had more aircraft.

Sadly, I think the exploitation is going to come from the other direction... When you hear about these "open skies" treaties, think NAFTA of the airlines. The oneworld alliance continues to grow, and with each new partner there are destinations that AA will now not even attempt to procure because our "partner" airlines can do the job cheaper...

No New York City, and definitley not San Juan.

Likely, the 763 that sits pretty in Bunoes Aires all day between Dallas flights will be utlized to start a third daily Miami-Buenos Aires flight that will operate during daylight hours and not require additional aircraft.

This also makes Miami-Cordoba a possibility. Like this winter's proposed Miami-Asuncion and Miami-Salvador services, it would probably operate as a redeye to COR/a daylight from COR with a winglet 757.

Other options exist, but I really doubt they would try for anything else.

Interesting to see what AA does. They can apply for both.
 
San Juan would be great for my friend that flies down to EZE several times a year. Last Time he had to go thru DFW both directions, couldn't get the MIA flights.
 
MORE and More and more International, and looong haul flying, coupled with LESS and Less and less domestic flying. ................Just as "uncle" Bobby CRANDALL Predicted over 10 years ago !!

The guy was AMAZING !!
A real S O B, but truly AMAZING !!
