From the Dallas Morning News:
American Airlines is seeking permission to fly between Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport and Quito, Ecuador.
In an application filed with the U.S. Department of Transportation, American said it plans to operate the service beginning Dec. 18 with five round trips a week.
Although American flies to Quito from its Miami hub, the new flight would mark the first Quito flights from American's largest hub at D/FW Airport.
The article says that "the U.S.-Ecuador air treaty has 48 weekly flights available to U.S. carriers that haven't been allocated."
