“We are pleased to launch a second daily nonstop from Chicago O’Hare providing customers with even more choices and travel flexibility while enjoying our award-winning international service,” said Hideyuki Koyama, Japan Airlines senior vice president for the Americas. “And our co-location at O’Hare with American Airlines makes it convenient for travelers connecting from cities throughout the Midwest. ”
