American Airlines is calling all the right plays with increased flights to San Jose, CA (SJC), for the Big Game. Located just 10 minutes from the action, SJC is an ideal gateway for fans going the distance and cheering their teams on.
“The season is just getting started, and American is locking in our game plan to get fans to the Big Game,” said Jason Reisinger, American’s managing director of global network planning. “There’s no better way to see the action than live in the stadium, and American has consistently kept fans in mind this season with our largest-ever fall football schedule, and now with added flights for the season’s final matchup.”
SJC is only 10 minutes by car from the stadium, making it an ideal gateway for fans wanting to support their championship team. Between February 5 and 10, 2026, American will grow its operations at SJC by more than 450 percent to offer travelers a convenient travel experience. In addition to flying larger aircraft on regularly scheduled flights from Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) and Phoenix (PHX), American will add special flights from Charlotte (CLT), Chicago (ORD), Los Angeles (LAX), Miami (MIA), New York (JFK) and Philadelphia (PHL).
