Re: Objection of Vertex Communications | 90-Day EAS Notice of American Eagle Airlines Intent to Terminate Service at Longview, Texas |
We respectfully request that the U.S. Department of Transportation deny this request to terminate service. We further request that DOT mandate that a negotiated agreement be reached between American Eagle and Longview/Gregg County officials which would contain a fare structure, flight schedule, and passenger load factor (if achieved) that insures profitability for American Eagle, In addition, a method of monitoring the load factors on a daily basis should be established within the agreement. After a six-month trial period, the status of the plan would be reviewed and modified as necessary.
