Continental Airlines, Inc.

OST-2000-7448 May 30, 2000 Application for Exemption New York/Newark- Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta and San Jose del Cabo
    Service List  

Continental intends to offer weekly nonstop B-737 New York/Newark-Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta and San Jose del Cabo, Mexico service beginning in December 2000. Granting Continental the authority requested clearly serves the public interest. No other U.S. airline offers nonstop service in any of the city-pairs in which authority is sought, and the proposed flights will offer travelers and shippers options via Continental's hub at Newark International Airport which would otherwise be unavailable to them. The U.S.-Mexico Air Transport Agreement authorizes service between New York/Newark and the Mexican points at issue by two airlines of each country, and Mexican carriers and their U.S. codeshare partners will also be free to offer services on these routes if they decide to do so.
