The world’s largest airlines has added another new route from Chicago O’Hare, this time launching weekly flights to Nassau’s Lynden Pindling International Airport.

The new route, which will run weekly on Saturdays for the winter season, is operating on American’s Boeing 737-800 aircraft.

The route began operating at the end of December.
