NEW YORK (AP) - Delta Air Lines Inc., which has been operating under Chapter 11 bankruptcy, on Tuesday said it is soliciting proposals for its regional jet service as part of a restructuring effort to build a more cost-competitive network.

The request for proposals includes flying opportunities for up to 143 regional jets -- flights currently handled by Comair, Chautauqua, Shuttle America and Freedom Airlines. The routes include Delta hub cities such as Atlanta, New York and Cincinnati.

Delta said the proposal request is for 43 70-seat regional jets; up to 50 50-seat regional jets and up to another 50 76-seat aircraft that provide a first-class section.

Over-the-counter shares of Delta fell a penny to 70 cents in midday trading.
