American Airlines announces new service from CVG to Raleigh-Durham

ERLANGER, Ky. — American Airlines is announcing a new nonstop service between Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (CVG) and Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU).

The new flight to Raleigh will operate daily beginning January 10, 2023 (CVG’s 76th anniversary). American will fly the Embraer 175 aircraft with 12 First Class and 64 Economy seating. Tickets will be available for purchase at aa.com on Saturday, Aug. 6.

“American Airlines is excited to connect Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport and Raleigh-Durham with new daily nonstop service this January,” said Philippe Puech, American Airlines director of short-haul network planning. “We expect this route will appeal to both business and leisure customers alike, offering a time-saving option between the two regions.”
