Dallas and Fort Worth are two major cities in Texas, each a 45-minute drive from Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport. American Airlines brought the representatives of both cities to Dublin to coincide with the launch of the new service with a B787 Dreamliner from Dublin to Dallas/Fort Worth on 7 June 2019.

Dallas representative Liliana Rivera explained that the city is a bustling metropolis with great art and culture, and attractions such as the George W Bush Presidential Library, Sixth Floor Museum, and Dallas Arboretum, and, of course, the Dallas Cowboys NFL team.
