Delta applies for ATL-Moscow Service

"Delta Air Lines, Inc. ("Delta") hereby requests an allocation of seven (7) U.S.-Russia frequencies, and gives notice of its intent to rely on route integration authority, in order to offer daily nonstop service between Atlanta and Moscow beginning on June 1, 2005. Delta's proposed new service will dramatically increase nonstop-to-nonstop service for U.S.-Russia travelers and shippers, and will provide important benefits to Atlanta-Moscow local passengers.

Delta intends to operate Atlanta-Moscow service using Boeing 767-300 ER aircraft, equipped with 204 seats. The eastbound service will depart Atlanta at 15:55 and arrive Moscow at 10:25 (local time). Westbound, the flight departs Moscow at 12:25 and arrives Atlanta at 15:50. The service will operate on a daily between June and September, and four times weekly from October through April"
