|
American Connection is a brand name used by three airlines feeding American Airlines's hub at Lambert-Saint Louis International Airport:
- Chautauqua Airlines, serving 14 cities with 15 Embraer ERJ-140 jets
- RegionsAir (formerly Corporate Airlines), serving 13 cities with 12 Jetstream 31 turboprops
- Trans States Airlines, serving 29 cities with 15 Embraer ERJ-145s, 13 Jetstream 41s, one ATR-42 and one ATR-72.
Unlike American Eagle, which feeds other AA hubs, American Connection is independently owned and operated. The American Connection carriers previously operated under a marketing agreement with Trans World Airlines as Trans World Express.
Together, the three carriers operate over 300 flights a day to 49 destinations.
