As part of its continued Caribbean expansion, US Airways intends to inaugurate new nonstop service from its international gateways at Philadelphia and Charlotte to La Romana, Punta Cana, and Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic. US Airways would be a new entrant in the U.S.-La Romana/Punta Cana/Puerto Plata markets. US Airways currently operates nonstop service between Philadelphia and Santo Domingo. With this application, US Airways seeks to amend its PHL-Santo Domingo authority so that it may operate the services described above.

US Airways plans to operate its scheduled PHL-La Romana services on a year-round basis commencing in January 2003. The service will begin with twice-weekly service from PHL and will be expanded as the market develops to include additional frequencies from PHL and CLT. For these services, US Airways plans to utilize A-320 aircraft, currently in its fleet, with 142 seats configured as 16F/126Y.

Application for Renewal of an Exemption

US Airways applies for renewal of its exemption authority to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between a point or points in the United States and a point or points in the Dominican Republic.
