Having officially closed its station, it can now re-enter mainline service, but staff it with Eagle employees which will be at a lower cost for the airline. Per its agreement with the Transport Workers Union, AA is not required to reopen the station until the airline has seven or more mainline flights per day.

Though it was *the* American carrier for much of Asia. Delta's extensive Euro routes paired with NWA's Asia routes should make for a good pairing. If only American carriers still flew to Africa like Pan Am. Sad to see an old stand-by go, but NWA didn’t have the best service or reputation. Though it was *the* American carrier for much of Asia.

There's a strong population base in Florida of Brazilians from Minas Gerais and places in the Northeast, which is expected to support the new services through Miami. From New York, you'd have to connect in Atlanta or Miami--or by flying beyond the Northeast to connect in Sao Paulo, which I know isn't very convenient. Unfortunately not at this time.

The train can take anywhere from 1:40 to 1:55 depending on stops, express, etc. Needless to say, New Haven is a great mini-hub for train enthusiasts. Ride the best commuter rail line in the country, check out the station, then hop aboard the Vermonter to the Green Mountains... not too shabby That is correct.

An outstanding glimpse of the "Jewel of New Haven"! One point: the ride from Grand Central to ZVE on Metro-North is not two hours, bit is under two hours, usually 1:50, to be precise. Thus, it takes just a few minutes more than Amtrak and is a great bargain in comparison. Also, unlike Amtrak, Metro-North runs on time and is not prone to jumping off the rails. Sir -- we must be vigilant with our safety! Taguba Sir!
