American Airlines has launched ‘Five Star Essentials’,
a new service for customers traveling with children or simply
looking for a simplified airport experience.

Customers purchasing Five Star Essentials will be:

– Greeted at Priority Check-in and provided
assistance in checking in for flights, selecting seats and
checking baggage;

– Accompanied through the Priority security lane
and assisted to ensure luggage and personal belongings stay
together and organized; and

– Escorted through the airport and to their gate.

Five Star Essentials starts at US$149 (includes up
to two adults and three children or pets) for travel beginning 24
May and can be booked now.

Customers
traveling in any cabin on an American flight can book the Five
Star Essentials service for domestic departures and connections at
Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT), Dallas Fort Worth
International Airport (DFW) and Miami International Airport (MIA).

“Five Star Essentials is another way to help ease
the journey for busy families or anyone who simply needs an extra
set of hands to navigate through the airport,” said Clarissa
Sebastian, Managing Director of Premium Customer Experience and
Onboard Products. “We know the airport can sometimes be
time-consuming or nerve-racking, especially if you haven’t
traveled in a while or are traveling during the holiday.”

Reservations can be made 72 hours in advance of
the flight, and AAdvantage members can also use miles to book.
