Eight teams will compete in this groundbreaking event and more than 10,000 spectators are expected to witness the inaugural edition
Businesses, including courier service FedEx, budget air carrier JetBlue and hotel giant Wyndham, oppose calls from Delta, American Airlines and United to renegotiate Open Skies agreements with the UAE and other Gulf countries.
In a letter to members of Congress, a group of 28 businesses said on Monday the three US airlines were jeopardising millions of American jobs by seeking to restrict access to the US market for Gulf carriers.
The letter also was addressed to the US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, among other officials.
"We urge the administration to protect Open Skies by insisting that these claims be assessed on the merits and in the proper forum," the letter said.
