American Airlines is planning to operate the last Boeing 767-200 service on May 7, 2014

American Airlines (Dallas/Fort Worth) is planning (subject to change) to operate the last Boeing 767-200 revenue flight on May 7, 2014 between Los Angeles and New York (JFK) according to Airline Route.

The 767-200 is mainly being used on the trans-con routes and will be replaced with new Airbus A321-200s.

American introduced the 767-200 in November 1982 and has been gradually phasing out the venerable type.

In other news, American Airlines and Qatar Airways (Doha) today announce an expansion of their relationship to include a reciprocal frequent flyer program agreement, providing customers more opportunities to earn and redeem miles when traveling across each airline’s global network.
