Foreign Airlines Ending Flights at Los Angeles Airport
Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is set to lose several international carriers by the end of this year.
Air India plans to end its six weekly flights between LAX and Frankfurt, which connect to New Delhi and Mumbai.
Meanwhile, in late October, Thai Airways will no longer offer nonstop flights to Bangkok and Cathay Pacific has said it will suspend one of three daily flights between Hong Kong and LAX.
Gina Marie Lindsey, Executive Director of Los Angeles World Airports, which operates LAX, told the Los Angeles Times that the drop in international flights was a little higher than she expected.
"There is always a dip in the fall, but this is more than usual," she said. "I don't yet know how this will settle out."
Other foreign carriers cutting flights at LAX include Ireland's Aer Lingus and Malaysia Airlines.
