The summer travel season is just coming to an end, but American Airlines is already looking ahead to next year, with a number of new international routes announced Tuesday, including two from DFW International Airport.

American plans to fly to nine new European markets next summer to expand its overseas reach during one of the busiest travel periods of the year. It will also cut 11 routes, mostly to Europe, across various hubs as part of the network shuffle.

DFW International Airport will see new flights to Dublin and Munich starting June 6. Both will be operated on Boeing 787 aircraft.

The new routes will bring the number of nonstop international destinations from DFW Airport to 59, including nine in Europe. The routes will qualify for funding through DFW's Air Service Incentive Funds Program that is used to encourage new international service, but the exact amount wasn't immediately available, an airport spokesman said Tuesday.

Philadelphia, one of American’s main hubs for transatlantic flights, will add seasonal service to three cities not currently in its network — Dubrovnik, Croatia; Berlin; and Bologna, Italy. Philadelphia will also add service to Edinburgh, Scotland.

Vasu Raja, American's vice president, said the carrier looked to cut underperforming routes in order to shift the aircraft to more profitable markets.

"We're taking capacity from places that are either not core to the strategy or not particularly profitable and we're devoting them to places that are both extremely profitable and therefore very much at the heart of our strategy," Raja, who oversees network and schedule planning, said in a video explaining the changes.

Rounding out American’s new routes are flights from Chicago to Athens, Greece, and from Phoenix to London.

All but one of the routes announced Tuesday will operate on a seasonal basis, with service starting between March and June, and ending in late September or October. The exception is in Charlotte, which will add year-round service to Munich. Tickets for all the new routes go on sale August 27.

To make room for the new flying, American will drop three international flights each from Philadelphia and New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, with cuts spread between Germany, Ireland, Scotland and Haiti. Chicago will lose a flight to Manchester, England; DFW Airport will lose service to Puebla, Mexico; and Los Angeles will lose a flight to Toronto.

On the other side of the globe, American announced it was trimming service from Chicago to Asia, ending nonstop service to Shanghai and scaling back its flights to Tokyo’s Narita International Airport from daily to three times per week.

American cited weak market conditions as the reason for the cuts, which came a few months after the carrier announced it was dropping Chicago to Beijing service. The carrier said it would seek a waiver from the Department of Transportation that would allow it to resume the route when the market improves.

“The two China routes and, to a lesser degree, Tokyo have been colossal loss makers for us," Raja said. "We are very much committed to Asia in the long run, but this act is an act of focusing our Asia network and our strategy around Dallas and Los Angeles where we have really unique advantages."
