Furthermore, keeping in mind the current fuel and competitive environment, American will hang up service between O’Hare International Airport (ORD) in Chicago and Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) in October and look for a dormancy waiver from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) for the route authority.
