United Parcel Service Co. hereby withdraws its application in the captioned proceeding.

Counsel:  Kelley Drye, David Vaughan, 202.955.9864

American Airlines, Inc.; Continental Airlines, Inc. and Transbrasil S/A Linhas Aereas and Interbrasil Star; Continental Airlines, Inc.; Continental Airlines, Inc. and Hawaiian Airlines, Inc.; American Airlines, Inc.; Iberia Lineas Aereas de Espana, S.A., Air Nostrum, and Aviaco; United Parcel Service; United Air Lines, Inc., US Airways, Inc. and Allegheny Airlines, Inc.; United Air Lines, Inc., US Airways, Inc. and Allegheny Airlines, Inc.; America West Airlines, Inc.; Delta Air Lines, Inc.

OST-97-2081 - American Airlines, Inc., filed January 17, 1997. Exemption authority to operate scheduled combination services between the United States and several cities in Colombia under a code-sharing arrangement with Aerovias Nacionales de Colombia (AVIANCA). By letter dated March 2, 200 1, American withdrew the exemption application.

OST-01-9950 Continental Airlines, Inc., filed June 18, 2001. Exemption authority to operate scheduled combination services between the United States and several cities in Brazil, Argentina, and Canada under a code-sharing arrangement with Transbrasil S/A Linhas Aereas and Interbrasil Star. The City of Houston and the Greater Houston Partnership and United Air Lines filed pleadings. By letter dated August 17, 2001, Continental withdrew the exemption application.

OST-96-1648 Continental Airlines, Inc., filed October 18, 200 1. Renew for five years certificate authority (Route 733) authorizing scheduled combination services between the United States and the United Kingdom, excluding London's Heathrow and Gatwick airports. On October 23, 200 1, Continental withdrew the application because its certificate authority for Route 733 had in fact been granted for an indefinite duration.

OST-01-10705 Continental Airlines, Inc. and Hawaiian Airlines, Inc. filed September 25, 2001. Allocation of U.S.-France same-country code-share opportunity to display Continental's designator code on Hawaiian's flights between Honolulu and Papeete, Tahiti. On September 27, 2001, Continental and Hawaiian withdrew their joint application.

OST-97-2965 / OST-98-3626 / OST-98-3640 United Air Lines, Inc., filed May 20, 1998. Petition for review of staff action and request that the Department reverse the award of code-share authority to American Airlines and Iberia Lineas Aereas de Espana to the extent that it permitted code-share service between Madrid and Rome (See Notice of Action dated April 30, 1998, in Dockets OST-97-2965 and 98-3626, and Order 98-12-6). United stated that American's proposed service in this market was not consistent with the aviation agreement between the United States and Italy. American and Iberia filed a response. Subsequent to the petition, the United States and Italy signed an open-skies agreement, and U.S. carrier service, including American's service at issue here, is now covered by this more liberal arrangement. United's petition, therefore, is now moot.

OST-00-7633 United Parcel Service Co., filed July 12, 2000. Allocation of five (5) one-way weekly Russia overflight frequencies transiting Tashkent in order to operate freighter service over a Cologne, Germany - Mumbai, India - Singapore - Taipei, Taiwan routing. On July 21, 2000, UPS withdrew the application.

OST-00-8355/OST-00-8356 United Air Lines, Inc.; US Airways, Inc.; and Allegheny Airlines, Inc., filed November 17, 2000. Joint application for (a) approval of a transfer of the international certificate authority held by US Airways and Allegheny to United; and (b) an interim exemption to facilitate the transfer, pending final consummation of the merger of United, US Airways and Allegheny. Continental Airlines, Delta Air Lines, America West Airlines, American Airlines, the Communications Workers of America/AFL-CIO/CLC, and the US Airways Master Executive Council of the Air Line Pilots Association filed answers. On July 27, 2001, the Joint Applicants announced the termination of their merger agreement, and on July 30, 2001, the Joint Applicants filed ajoint motion to withdraw the applications. We grant the motion.

OST-00-7880 America West Airlines, Inc., filed August 31, 2000. Renew statement of authorization to code share with Eva Airways Corporation. On October 30, 1998, the Department granted the application of America West to display EVA's designator code on America West's domestic flights for the carriage of EVA's transpacific traffic (undocketed). The Department granted the application for an indefinite duration, subject to attached conditions. In these circumstances, the renewal application is moot.

OST-97-2803 Delta Air Lines, Inc., filed July 21, 1999. Renew authorization to provide third- country code-share service to Egypt. By Order 2000-10-14, the Department determined that Delta's authorization was available for allocation since Delta proposed to change its code-share partner from Swissair to Air France. Subsequently, by Order 2000-11-2, we selected Delta and Air France for the available authorization (Docket OST-2000-6982). Against this background, Delta's application to renew its authorization in Docket OST-97-2803 is now moot.
