Direct Flight Route | 2024-10-16 | 2024 | 2024-10 | Republican | Senate | TX | John Cornyn | C001056 | www.cornyn.senate.gov | cornyn | https://www.cornyn.senate.gov/news/ | scraper | AUSTIN – U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) released the following statement on the U.S. Department of Transportation’s (DOT) announcement of the establishment of a direct flight route between San Antonio and Washington D.C.’s Ronald Reagan National Airport to be serviced by Texas-based American Airlines: “As a proud native of San Antonio, I am pleased with the DOT’s decision to establish a direct route between San Antonio and the District of Columbia, and glad to hear that it will be served by DFW-based American Airlines,” said Sen. Cornyn. “This new route will make travel more efficient for military personnel, business travelers, or simply families visiting their nation’s capital, and I was proud to work with Senator Cruz and countless others to make this major win for ‘Military City, USA’ a reality.” Background: In May, Sen. Cornyn voted in favor of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Reauthorization Act, now law, which includes a range of reforms to improve public safety, efficiency, and consumer confidence and allows for a direct route from San Antonio. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:55:29Z |
