American Eagle's (Dallas/Fort Worth) pilots are protesting an effort by AMR to move the AmericanConnection (operated by Chautauqua Airlines) feeder operations from St. Louis to the Chicago O'Hare hub. The AmericanConnection second party operation was an outgrowth of the TWA merger and previously contained to the former St. Louis hub. Trans States Airlines (St. Louis) continues to operate AmericanConnection flights at St. Louis.
