Chicago-headquartered United Airlines wants to start non-stop flights between Washington DC and Cape Town, resulting in a war of words with its chief competitor, supported by political powers.
. The 177-page supporting document before the DOT details how non-stop flights from Washington DC to Cape Town would benefit both countries and why Delta Air Lines' application should be the"lowest priority".
United added that, despite receiving approval for triangular routing, Delta's"plans for South Africa service remain unclear". "With United's high utilisation of every frequency it has been allocated, the public has received as full a benefit as possible. In contrast, Delta has not shown a similar level of commitment or service. Instead, it has consistently underutilised its allotted frequencies and pursued ever-changing plans for its US-South Africa service."
