Will American Airlines make a decsision to pull out of Burbank Airport just like Oakland?
Today there is an article that American Airlines will end its 3 daily non-stop flights to Dallas from Oakland,CA. Will American pull out of Ontario, Burbank or Orange Coutny,CA? Lets hope not. http://www.mercurynews.com/breakingnews/ci_9159967?nclick_check=1 From Burbank you can fly to Paris, Italy or London on American Airlines. You have to fly to Dallas first and change planes. If American pulls out who will offer connecting international service at Burbank? Maybe Jet Blues code share with Liftansa at JFK could provide international connecting service from Burbank. Is Jet Blue in danger of going out of bussiness? If fuel prices ever go down and American replaces their MD80s with 737-800s they may return to Oakland.

Perphaps. Its hard for the big guys to compete with the budget carrierers those smaller airports.

There may not be enough passengers that want to go to Paris directly from Burbank.

It depends on the market and how much passenger demand there is at Burbank. Burbank is a smaller airport but is nice if you want to avoid LAX. Right now airlines are cutting capacity because of high oil prices. Therefore if the flights to and from Burbank are not generating enough revenue for American, then they may pull out.
