Sen. Richard Bryan, D-Nev., is seeking support from Secretary of Transportation Rodney Slater to get three slot exemptions for National Airlines to serve Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.
If permitted, Las Vegas-based National would be allowed to fly three daily round trips between O'Hare and McCarran International Airport.
National already serves Chicago's Midway Airport, which some travelers find less desirable because O'Hare, one of the busiest airports in the country, has far more connecting flights.
