Dear Z-1r.-High
,
It is our-und,erstanding:inthe City ofMiami that the United States.
and,England will: soon - comence negotiations on whether to allow two,
onlyto fly. the ML�ondon route. We further
or���one,..U.S. airlines :
., British positiis "that two British and one'U.
understand thzit,�:the' on 0
carrier :should fly,the route', and that the U.S.. position is fordual
designation; i.e., two British and,-" two U.Scarriers.,
At the presentI time, British Airlays and Pan American Airlines1fly -
I d,, the : NationaAirlin6s.. but 'i
. I erican . ao: juire L
Pan T\M the route.
rvice. Curre I nt service is permitte y"a
barred fran permanent . service:
. -
brie_ -limited exception. Hqweyer,_if'miam-i wins dualdesignation,
Pan P irerican Would.bOable to keep the route.
London has t-jo airports;: Heathrow and Gatwick. Heathrcw.�is-closer �
to the city,has-900d: transportation, - tation, and many connecting, and through
flights. Gataick, is . far from London, has poor and exTensiVe ground"
transportation, and very fare connecting flights. Britain - ,has rul6d
that , no nai carriers can use Heathrow. Pan American currently', uses
x.
If mia'lni loses. dual designation, Pan Americanll6ses the route and�
Miami lose c s acess -tolleathrow on an American carrier. Service would
probably , got I o 11 East I orn - or Air Florida which do not have lleathrow-�rights.:.
If imni is, 1 jarded.dual designation, P an American will keep its. ser-
vice to Ileathroi and Eastern:or AirFlorida will start service to
Gatwick.
