Leaving Dallas/Fort Worth
Not covered on American Airlines: Dallas/Fort Worth is outside the UK and EU, and American Airlines is not a UK or EU airline.
Heathrow to Dallas/Fort Worth is 7,627 km, which fixes the figure: £520 each leaving Heathrow, but nothing coming back, because American Airlines is not a UK or EU airline. It is per person, so four of you is £2,080.
How American Airlines does on this route
Better or worse than the route itself?
Everyone flying Heathrow to Dallas/Fort Worth hits the same airspace and the same two airports, so the honest question is not whether the route is busy, it is whether this airline handles it better or worse than the others on it.
American Airlines flies 85% of this route, so the right-hand column is mostly its own flights being averaged back at it. The comparison that means something here is against the rest of its network.
Against its own network it is 5.3 points worse than usual: American Airlines lands on time 74.2% of the time across all 15,379 of its UK flights a year, against 68.9% here.
In money terms: about 6 flights a month on this route land 3 hours or more late, which is about 1 flight in 43. Everyone on board one of those is owed at least £260 each, so a full aircraft is a five-figure bill for American Airlines.
