AMERICAN Airlines and Hawaiian Airlines formally launched bids on Monday to wrest control of a key slot in Tokyo's Haneda Airport from Delta Air Lines as part of a fight among the carriers to stake out a greater presence in Asia.
The two airlines have lobbied the US Department of Transportation (DOT) for months to rescind Delta's right to land at the airport in one of four daily times, or slots, allotted to US carriers by an international agreement between the United States and Japan.
