Letter to The Honorable Raymond H. LaHood, concerning Tokyo Haneda

March 24,2010
The Honorable Raymond H. LaHood
United States Secretary of Transportation
U.S. Department of Transportation
1200 New Jersey Ave., SE
Washington, DC 20590

Dear Mr. Secretary:
We respectfully ask you to approve American Airlines’ request for allocation of two daily U.S. – Haneda slot pairs to operate year round scheduled air transportation from New York and Los Angeles to Tokyo Haneda.

Your Department, and that of the Department of State, successfully negotiated a historic Open Skies accord with Japan last December, clearing the way for U.S. airlines to serve Tokyo International Airport (Haneda). Granting this request would intuitively benefit the broadest public interest, offer customers more service, scheduling and pricing options, and positively impact our members.

We encourage the Department of Transportation to approve American’s application -thank you.
Sincerely,

James C. Little
International President
Transport Workers Union of America, AFL-CIO

Laura Glading
President
Association of Professional Flight Attendants

John M. Conley
International Administrative Vice President
Director Air Transport Division
