American Airlines Delays launch of Chicago - Beijing Flights
April 30, 2010

American Airlines has delayed the launch of new, daily, nonstop services from Chicago to Beijing. The airline has delayed start-up tentatively until Tuesday, 4 May 2010 (Chicago-Beijing) and Wednesday, 5 May 2010 (Beijing-Chicago).

In a statement issued earlier this week, the airline stated, "Until American receives viable operating slots, we will not be able to fly between Chicago and Beijing and thus cannot deliver air transportation services to the American and Chinese people.

We are proactively delaying the start of our flight from Chicago to Beijing until 4 May 2010, and we are hopeful that the slot issue can be resolved by that time.

"Meanwhile, American is rebooking customers on other flights to assist them in getting to their destination. Customers are being offered full refunds or the opportunity to travel on American at a later date."
