The travel agency group said there's "more at stake than just a fight over new technology."
The travel agency group, which has been railing against the airline's distribution method for months, wants the DOT to force AA to give up slots among other measures.

United's move comes two weeks after American Airlines did the same.
The airline announced that it would go ahead with its April implementation of the NDC.
