JFK Manchester Flights american airlines

American Airlines offer nonstop flights between New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) and Manchester, England (MAN)
The new, summer seasonal flights to Manchester will depart daily from JFK. American will fly the route with a Boeing 757 aircraft with 16 seats in Business Class and 166 seats in the Economy cabin.
"We're delighted to add the great city of Manchester to American Airlines roster of 25 international flights from New York," said Art Torno, Vice President – New York for American Airlines. "This destination will be an important key building block in our mission of making New York a key cornerstone city for American."

"Manchester is a route that our New York customers will really appreciate," said Jim Carter, Vice President – Eastern Sales Division, for American. "It offers many attractions and has great appeal for both our leisure and business passengers."


Manchester is the largest city in the northern England and is a convenient base for exploring other cities in the region, such as Liverpool and Chester or the beautiful countryside of the Lake District. Manchester is the epicenter of football (soccer) and home to the famed Manchester United. It is the birthplace of fish and chips and the Industrial Revolution. Culturally, Manchester is renowned for its popular Indie music scene, and it hosts the impressive, artist-led Manchester International Festival, a global cultural festival of original, new work and special events.

Less expensive than London and many other EU capitals, Manchester is noted for its pubs and locally-produced beer – including Boddingtons. It is one of Europe's leading business/media cities and its new MediaCity complex houses many major businesses, recently attracting five departments of the BBC that moved there from London.

Andrew Stokes, Chief Executive of Marketing Manchester, said, "We're delighted that American Airlines is increasing its operations into Manchester. We welcome the opportunity to work with them on promoting Manchester to the New York market. As the gateway to the North of England, Manchester offers people from the U.S. the chance to experience not only our great city, but also the sights of the Lake District National Park, Liverpool and the Roman city of Chester – all of which are within easy reach of Manchester.

"The new route will also support the business community that travels frequently between Manchester and the U.S., in particular, international delegates attending conferences and exhibitions at our convention centers," Stokes said.
