Office of International Aviation Filings for Feburary 2, 1998

Two weeks ago, the Department addressed a similar type of situation, arising from an Icelandair request for authority to operate seventh freedom service between Luxembourg and Minneapolis/St. Paul. In its Notice of Action Taken, dated January 16, 1998, the Department denied Icelandair's request, explaining that "the grant of this authority is no provided for in our aviation agreement with Iceland and was not within the scope of authority we were prepared to grant the carrier." The same reasoning should apply here.
