Order Granting Applications for Slot Exemptions at Chicago O'Hare Airport

High Density Rule - Chicago O'Hare

We find that grant of these exemptions is consistent with the public interest. In reaching this decision, we recognize that ANA and JAL filed timely requests with the FAA for slots, and that due to hourly constraints the FAA has not been able to accommodate those requests. ANA and JAL have been properly authorized by their government to provide scheduled foreign air transportation in the Chicago-Tokyo and Chicago-Osaka markets, respectively, and our action here will provide the traveling public with important new services.
