An Envoy Embraer ERJ-140 on behalf of American Airlines, registration N830AE performing flight MQ-3499/AA-3499 from Dallas Ft. Worth,TX to Tyler,TX (USA), was on approach to Tyler at about 2500 feet MSL when the crew was handed off to tower. Upon contacting the tower the crew did not receive a reply and went around. The crew subsequently decided to return to Dallas Ft. Worth, where the aircraft landed safely about 25 minutes later.

The airport reported that their staff had been informed about an issue with the flight, appearing to be a miscommunication between the airline's operations desk and the airport staff. The flight returned to Dallas by captain's decision. Another flight crew completed the flight later.

The aircraft departed Dallas again and reached Tyler with a delay of 2.5 hours.
