Jack, Another inefficient and wasteful solution that airlines allow FAA to implement. Given that excess capacity exists (which is easily provable), FAA and airlines should be trying to increase throughput at ORD instead of limiting access. Of course, if American and United object to the ORD slots, they need to offer an alternative, which the refuse to do. Michael xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx R.

<https://r.smartbrief.com/resp/uPumCylCteoVmCyAaDdmnwalqrbW?format=multipart> FAA to limit O'Hare flights for summer season The Federal Aviation Administration plans to cap daily flights at Chicago O'Hare International Airport at 2,800 this summer to prevent operational disruptions, as airlines have scheduled over 3,080 daily flights on peak days. The move comes as United Airlines and American Airlines announced significant increases in their schedules, with United planning 780 daily flights and American adding 100 daily departures. The FAA will hold a meeting with major carriers to discuss the cap, which has been supported by both airlines.
