OST-97-2823 | September 4, 1997
Joint Consolidated
Reply and Motion for Leave to File
American Air Lines and China Airlines, Ltd. filed the captioned applications to facilitate the expansion to several new city-pair markets of an existing blocked-space/code-sharing agreement between the two carriers for the carriage of property and mail. Specifically, CAL applied for an amendment of an existing Statement of Authorization (95-612) to permit the additional services, and American sought exemption authority to support the only aspect of the amended agreement for which it did not already enjoy operating rights: service (under the amended blocked space/code-sharing agreement with CAL) from points in the U.S., via Taipei, to Ho Chi Minh City.

The Department should not authorize code-share operations involving Mexican carriers until all requisite designations and underlying economic authority have been secured. The Department also should continue to limit to 179 days all authorizations of code-share operations involving Mexican carriers. See Order 977-31 (granting United/Mexicana and American/Aero California authority to code-share in certain markets but limiting the effective periods to 179 days; Notice of Action Taken dated September 3, 1997 "limiting to 179 days Aeromexico's authority to code-share with Swissair).

Re: Correction to Joint
Application
It has just come to my attention that there are two typographical errors in the Joint Reply of Federal Express Corporation and Florida West International Airways, Inc., filed on August 27, 1997 in the referenced proceeding. In both instances, the name "Fine Air" should be substituted in place of the name "FWIA" in the 4th line on page 3 and in the 1st line on page 5 of the Joint Reply. Revised pages reflecting those corrections, underscored, are attached to this letter.

OST-97-2872 | Filed September 2, 1997 | Approved September 3, 1997
Relief requested: Exemption to operate two one-way, emergency cabotage outsized cargo charter flights between Wilmington, OH, and Seattle, WA; using Russian-registered Antonov 124 aircraft, carrying a total of two GE90 engines and related components on behalf of General Electric Aircraft Engines (GE), on or about September 4 and 18, 1997, required at the Boeing Company for production of B777 aircraft.

Pan Am Corporation and Carnival Air Lines, Inc.
Order 97-9-3 | OST-97-2786 | Issued and Served September 4, 1997
We will grant the applicants' request for an exemption from the provisions of section 41105 until we have ruled on the de facto transfer request, subject to the condition that Pan Am and Carnival will remain separate and independently operated corporations until such a ruling has been made. As we have previously held, requiring the postponement of scheduled market transactions until the applicable regulatory process has been completed is not necessarily in the public interest and can be unjustly punitive. In this instance, as long as Pan Am and Carnival remain separate entities, as the applicants have pledged, PAC could divest itself of Carnival should we disapprove the proposed transfer. Therefore, permitting the applicants to close on the acquisition pending an expeditious ruling on the transfer will enable them to proceed with their merger plans yet avoid an irreversible situation.

Answer of Fine
Air Services, Inc. to Request for Clarification of Challenge
Air Cargo, Inc.
Fine Air Services, Inc. ("Fine Air") files the instant Answer to the Request of Challenge Air Cargo, Inc. ("Challenge") for Clarification of the Department's Notice regarding U.S.-Argentina Ali-Cargo Services issued on August 14, 1997. Challenge contends that "the underlying premise upon which the Department's notice was based -- namely that Challenge did not operate the two narrow-body frequencies (he., one wide-body equivalent) allocated to it during the 90-day dormancy period specified in the Department's February 25 Notice of Action Taken -- is not correct.
