	Operating Limitations at Newark Liberty International Airport FAA-2008-0221 May 1, 2008 Supplemental Comments of Porter Airlines On April 1, 2008, Porter Airlines submitted comments on the Proposed Order Limiting Scheduled Operations at Newark Liberty International Airport issued by the Federal Aviation Administration on March 12, 2007, in the above referenced proceeding. In its comments, Porter pointed out the serious adverse impact on the traveling public that would result if the allocation of Operating Authorizations proposed for Porter in that Order were finalized, and requested that Porter be allocated a revised set of Operating Authorizations in the Final Order that would permit Porter to continue to provide the full complement of service it began in the Newark-Toronto market on March 31, 2008. Since the filing of those comments, there have been several significant developments related to the use of Newark Operating Authorizations, and Porter respectfully submits these supplemental comments to discuss these developments and their implications for carriers such as Porter. Porter very much appreciates the FAA’s efforts to address the continuing problem of the constrained airspace in and around Newark Liberty International Airport, and the opportunity to provide these and its prior comments on the Proposed Order. These new developments which have occurred over the past few weeks provide the FAA with a unique opportunity to address the impact of the Proposed Order on Porter’s ongoing operations. Porter respectfully urges the FAA to take the steps discussed more fully herein to assure that Porter can continue to provide its high-quality, low-cost, low-fare, competitive service in the Newark-Toronto market and thereby serve the important pro-competitive goals of the U.S.-Canada Open Skies Agreement.
