American Airlines will start operating its first Boeing 787 on flights between Dallas/Fort Worth and Chicago on May 7, before launching international flights with the Dreamliner between Dallas and Beijing on June 2.
The new aircraft will also be used on flights between Dallas and Buenos Aires from June 4.
The airline said it will use the 787 to additional markets throughout 2015 as it takes delivery of new aircraft.
"We look forward to welcoming our international customers onboard the 787 with its modern amenities and comforts beginning this summer," said chief marketing officer Andrew Nocella.
"Adding the 787 Dreamliner to our network gives us the opportunity to increase our efficiency on long-haul flights across the globe and potentially open up new markets in our network. It’s a big win for customers and just the latest example of how American is going for great."
American has placed firm orders for 42 Boeing 787 aircraft, with the right to acquire an additional 58.
