Also, for what it's worth, I just read the filing and it has nothing to do with the AA frequencies.
With Hawaiian’s notice to the Department indicating its intent to suspend its three weekly Honolulu-Beijing flights effective October 12, 2018, and to return its corresponding three weekly Zone 1 frequencies to the Department, seven Zone 1 U.S.-China frequencies are immediately available for allocation. Following the Department’s allocation of 7 frequencies to American for Los Angeles-Beijing service in Order 2016-12-14, 1 unallocated frequency remained available to U.S. carriers. Earlier this year, United returned 3 weekly U.S.-China Zone 1 frequencies, leaving four available for allocation.
So, given that AA is looking to go dormant on 14 frequencies, Delta should have a pretty good case to get these frequencies and MSP should have a good shot at getting PVG service. Woo!
