Docket 48575

American Trans Air, Inc. (Exemption Renewal, New York-Belfast/Shannon)

OST-95-963 (48575) | OST-95-964 | January 7, 1998

Application for Renewal of Exemptions and Motion

ATA has successfully operated between New York and Ireland for more than 10 years. In 1996, under its then newly issued authority, ATA commenced seasonal scheduled service in the New York-Belfast market as well as in the New York-Dublin/Shannon markets. ATA subsequently suspended scheduled service in these New York-Ireland markets in 1997. ATA thereafter provided seasonal charter service to Ireland and continues to do so. ATA provides this service with 757 aircraft configured for 216 passengers. Such service is operated 5 days per week with one flight offered each flight day. ATA proposes to continue to offer such seasonal charter service, but is again also considering reinstating scheduled service as a compliment to its charter service.
