(South Bend, IN) - About a year ago American Airlines starting offering passengers in this area a way to fly out of Chicago without driving there themselves. They introduced a shuttle service by bus from South Bend International Airport (SBN) to Chicago O’Hare (ORD). Now they’re upgrading passengers to an actual aircraft.
The airport has announced that American Airlines will soon fly passengers between airports. Flights will be three times daily on a regional CRJ-700 aircraft with dual-class cabins and 65 seats.
The SBN-ORD route will continue to be operated six times daily on a 35-seat luxury motor coach through Sunday, October 4, with the airplane shuttles taking off October 5.
Passengers that have already booked between SBN and ORD on American will be automatically rebooked and will receive an email notification from the airline, the airport says.
