Exemption/Slots - Kansas City, MO- Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport |
By: Midwest Express, Michael Mooney
| OST-95-370 | February 12, 2001 | Application for Renewal of Certificate of Public
Convenience and Necessity |
Miami- Lima, Peru |
| Service List |
United requests renewal of its authority to serve Lima, Peru from Miami, Florida pursuant to United's Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity for Route 703, which authorizes it to operate scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail between Miami, Florida and Lima, Peru. This authority was approved by Order 96-7-33 for a five year period. The authority will expire on August 22, 2001. United suspended Miami-Lima service in March 2000 due to market conditions and will reassess the U.S.-Lima market as soon as market conditions warrant. Renewal of United's authority is in the public interest. On June 12, 2002, the transitional provisions of the U.S./Peru bilateral air services agreement will expire and the market will be full open skies. In the meantime, there are unused U.S. carrier transitional opportunities available and renewal of United's certificated route authority will not block the entry or expansion of U.S. carrier services between the U.S. and Peru.
Under the transitional provisions of the U.S./Peru Air Transport Agreement of June 1998, U.S. carrier roundtrip frequencies for U.S.-Peru services are limited to 84 per week until June 11, 2001, increasing to 94 per week until June 11, 2002, and are unlimited thereafter. According to the OAG (January 2001), U.S.-carriers are operating only 42 weekly frequencies. United does not have a frequency allocation nor is it seeking one by this application.

| OST-00-7181 | February 12, 2001 | Application of American Airlines |
Beyond Perimeter Slot Exemptions Washington National- Los Angeles |
| Service List |
American proposes to operate daily nonstop roundtrip service between Los Angeles and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, using B757 Stage 3 aircraft with 176 seats. The B7S7 is the largest capacity aircraft authorized for operations into DCA. Accordingly, American's aircraft selection will ensure that maximum public benefits are achieved from the beyond-perimeter slot opportunities provided by AIR 21. While American would obviously prefer to operate more than one daily roundtrip, only two exemption slots will be made available when TWA ceases to utilize them.
Eastbound, American's proposed flight will depart Los Angeles at 8:30 a.m., with an afternoon arrival at DCA at 4:20 p.m. Westbound, American will offer a departure from DCA at 5:30 p.m., arriving at Los Angeles at 8:15 p.m. These flights will provide convenient arrival and departure times for business and leisure passengers, and maximize connecting opportunities at Los Angeles.

| OST-00-7181 | February 12, 2001 | Motion for Leave to File Late and Consolidated Answer of American
Airlines |
Beyond Perimeter Slot Exemptions Washington National- Los Angeles/ Salt Lake City |
| Service List |
American opposes the applications by Continental and Delta. With only a single pair of beyond-perimeter exemption slots to be awarded, and competing applications already on file by three carriers, the Department should institute a carrier-selection proceeding, with a procedural schedule for additional applications, answers, and replies, and should decide the matter using show-cause procedures.
American and American Eagle will provide competitive one-stop service to DCA via Los Angeles to a number of other cities in the west, including Fresno, San Francisco, San Jose, Palm Springs, San Diego, Reno, Las Vegas, Honolulu, and Kahului. American will also offer new one-stop access between DCA and international cities served by American's codeshare partners at the Los Angeles gateway, including Beijing, Seoul, Nagoya, Taipei, Fiji, Sydney, Melbourne, and Auckland.
