OST-03-16522 - Manila-Vancouver-Las Vegas

December 2, 2004

Application for Renewal of Exemption

PAL has been granted an exemption by the Department to provide scheduled combination service between Manila, on the one hand, and Las Vegas, Nevada, on the other hand, via the intermediate point Vancouver, Canada with full traffic rights between Vancouver and Las Vegas. See Notice of Action Taken (December 8, 2003). PAL also holds a foreign air carrier permit to provide scheduled combination flights between the Philippines and points in the United States. See Order 82-12-115.

PAL's exemption authority to engage in Manila-Vancouver-Las Vegas services is currently set to expire on December 8, 2004. PAL requests renewal of its Las Vegas exemption authority for a two-year period, until December 8, 2006. The Department has previously determined that PAL's service to Las Vegas is consistent with the public interest. See Notice of Action Taken ( December 8, 2003). PAL's current operations to Las Vegas include up to four weekly frequencies with an intermediate stop in Vancouver, Canada. PAL's exemption authority includes full traffic rights between Vancouver and Las Vegas. PAL operates its Las Vegas service with Airbus 340-300 aircraft configured for 264 passengers.

OST-2008-0015 - Exemption - Manila-Vancouver-San Diego

January 10, 2008

Application for an Exemption

PAL has received authorization from the Government of the Philippines to commence service to San Diego as an additional point in the U.S. This application requests an exemption allowing PAL to conduct scheduled flights to San Diego. PAL plans to launch service to San Diego in the fourth quarter of 2008 with three (3) weekly flights using A340‑300 aircraft. PAL proposes to serve San Diego as a U.S. gateway with an intermediate traffic stop in Vancouver, Canada. PAL requests full local traffic rights between Vancouver and San Diego.

PAL's proposed service would provide the only direct flights between the Philippines and San Diego. By opening a direct air link from Manila, PAL's proposed service would facilitate greater tourism and trade in the U.S.-Philippines market and provide an economic boost to the San Diego metropolitan area. PAL intends to commence service to San Diego in the fourth quarter of this year.

Re: Support of San Diego County Regional Airport Authority

Answer of Hawaiian Airlines

Although PAL objected to Hawaiian's recent application with the Philippine Civil Aviation Board for an operating certificate for its new route between Honolulu and Manila, Hawaiian believes in extending the opportunity for fair competition here in the US to all who qualify and play by the rules just the same as it hopes to enjoy in the foreign skies in which it flies. Hawaiian therefore takes no position on either the substance of PAL's application or, to the extent PAL is pennitted to do so while in Category 2 status under the International Aviation Assessment Program, its expansion or change in service.

OST-2008-0015 - Exemption - Manila-Vancouver-San Diego

May 21, 2008

Letter of Ledford Enterprises in Support

I am writing to add my support for the application by Philippine Airlines for an exemption to operate direct air service between San Diego International Airport and Manila Ninoy Aquino International via Vancouver, British Columbia. I appreciate PAL's newest proposed route because it will provide San Diegans the first direct flight to Asia, which is also a key priority not only for international businessmen such as myself, but to the over 100,000 Filipino-American population residing in San Diego County and to the San Diego Regional Airport Authority.
