AA will soon announce that they have filed for authority for ORD-PVG. There will be a total of 7 frequencies granted in 2005 I think. You can bet DL will file ATL-PVG, and CO EWR-PVG.

American Airlines Seeks Authority to Begin Chicago - Shanghai Service in May 2005
Wednesday September 22, 3:00 pm ET
American Garners Strong Bipartisan Support
CHICAGO, Sept. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- American Airlines announced today that it will vigorously seek authority to begin daily nonstop service between Chicago and Shanghai, China, starting on May 1 of next year. This opportunity results from the highly successful negotiations by the Departments of Transportation and State, in which the United States won the right to designate two additional airlines to serve China in the next two years. Using the highly popular Boeing 777 three-class aircraft, American's service will clearly provide the strongest possible competition in this growing market.
