(Pittsburgh, PA) American Airlines (AA) will temporarily suspend its daily service between Pittsburgh and Los Angeles due to high fuel costs, a spokesperson for Pittsburgh International Airport confirmed today.

The suspension will begin Aug. 5 and continue through Oct. 4, Director of Public Affairs Bob Kerlik said in an email to WTAE.

“This pause is one of several route adjustments AA made nationally at airports across the country due to high fuel costs,” Kerlik said.

United Airlines will continue to offer daily flights between Pittsburgh and Los Angeles International Airport.

Breeze Airways launched seasonal service between Pittsburgh and Los Angeles on Tuesday, offering three flights per week.
