(Reuters) - Lawyers for the New York hotel maid who says Dominique Strauss-Kahn tried to rape her are looking to talk to Air France staff about the once globetrotting chief of the International Monetary Fund.

Hotel maid Nafissatou Diallo's lawyers are fighting to keep a criminal case against Strauss-Kahn going after New York prosecutors said doubts had arisen over her credibility.

"I received an anonymous letter from someone who apparently works at Air France about Dominique Strauss-Kahn, and we're now looking to talk to Air France employees," Diallo lawyer Kenneth Thompson told Reuters by email.

An Air France spokeswoman would not confirm whether the company had been contacted by Diallo's legal team or say whether the airline was aware of any complaints by flight attendants.

Strauss-Kahn, 62, spent much of his life on planes in his job as IMF head and travelled regularly on Air France (AIRF.PA).
