Tickets will be available starting April 19.

“We are thrilled to offer new non-stop service between Dayton and Orlando in time for summer, giving local travelers the opportunit­y to experience the wonder of Orlando and its endless outdoor adventures,” said Brian Znotins, American Airlines vice president of network planning. “We look forward to welcoming more Dayton travelers to fly with us and further connecting them to our global network.”
