    American Airlines expects the impact of the coronavirus pandemic to continue to weigh on demand and schedules into 2021, the carrier’s president said Tuesday.

    The Fort Worth, Texas-based airline is flying about 45% of its 2019 schedule this month, Robert Isom told reporters at Miami International Airport, before the debut of the Boeing 737 Max’s first U.S. flight with commercial passengers since it was grounded nearly two years ago.

    “We anticipate that’s something that will carry on into January and February. We are hopeful that the vaccine will show some promise,” he said.
