American Eagle

American Eagle's once a day service to Dallas-Fort Worth is being suspended from January to the end of March due to lack of pilots and traditional low passenger numbers during this time period. This is not the only route being suspended as Rochester (NY) to Dallas-Fort Worth is also being suspended and numerous other routes across the country like Harrisburg to Chicago-O'Hare being reduced in frequency. According to an article in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram (http://www.star-telegram.com/business/story/322928.html), regional airlines across the country are experiencing a shortage of pilots due to fewer pilots and growing demand for pilots. This situation is a worldwide one and competition for pilots is intense and regional airlines are usually the ones who can the pay the least so they are at the bottom of the pecking order when it comes to attracting new pilots. American Eagle will retain it's 4x daily flights from Syracuse to Chicago-O'Hare during this time period.
