Business Express Airlines, Inc. d/b/a Delta Connection and Northwest Air Link (Exemption, 90-Day Notice Requirement to Reduce Service BOS-MHT Below Established Subsidy Rate)

OST-97-2997 | October 10, 1997

Application for an Exemption

HTML

BEX requests the exemption because traffic in the BOS-MHT market is extremely light. As noted in the 90-day Notice, MHT receives air service to a number of other destinations. MHT originating passengers seldom fly to BOS as a final destination and prefer to make connections at other points, such as New York La Guardia (LGA), Newark, Philadelphia, Washington National and Dulles airports, and Chicago, all of which points, among others, have daily non-stop service to MHT.

On September 15, 1997 BEX increased its LGA-MHT service from ten to eleven daily non-stop round trips and to twelve on October 1, 1997. These increases have been made possible in part through the reduction in BOS-MHT service.

Federal Express Corporation (US-Saudi Arabia Cargo Service)

OST-95-657 | October 10, 1997

Supplement No. 1 to Application for Renewal of an Exemption

HTML

This Supplement is being submitted in response to the request of the Department's staff, for the purpose of furnishing additional information pertaining to the contract cargo charter operations performed for Federal Express between Dubai, and the one hand, and Jeddah and Riyadh, on the other hand, by Falcon Express, Inc. (Falcon), and to provide additional information pertaining to the identity, nationality and operating authority of Falcon itself.

Reply of Federal Express to Saudi Arabian Airlines

HTML

Federal Express does not hold out or sell cargo transportation to any part of the world using Falcon's designator code, and Falcon does not hold out or sell any cargo service using Federal Express' designator code. For that reason, no aspect of the arrangement between Federal Express and Falcon could be viewed as a "code-share" agreement.

Existing air express and freight traffic levels between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia would not economically support the operation of direct DC-10-30 freighter operations by Federal Express to Jeddah and Riyadh. The charter flight operations performed for Federal Express by Falcon enable Federal Express to provide direct service to Saudi Arabia utilizing cargo space on the much smaller 4,000-pound payload Beech-1900 all-cargo aircraft, which is ideally suited to current traffic volumes carried by Federal Express between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia.
