Missoulian: US sues over proposed deal between United, Delta at Newark
Assistant Attorney General Bill Baer Delivers Remarks at Conference Call Regarding the Justice Department's Lawsuit to Block United's Monopolization of Takeoff and Landing Slots at Newark Airport
“This morning the Department of Justice filed a lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Newark, New Jersey, to block United Airlines’ effort to acquire 24 takeoff and landing slots at Newark Liberty International Airport.  Today, United controls over 73 percent of the slots needed to fly in and out of Newark.  Our lawsuit charges United with trying to maintain and enhance its monopoly position at Newark, violating Section 2 of the Sherman Act.  We are also charging United and Delta Airlines, the seller of the slots, with violating Section 1 of the Sherman Act by entering into an agreement that restrains trade.”
