OST-95-297

American Airlines, Inc.

American has continuously operated nonstop service between the United States and Brazil since 1990. American presently operates the following pattern of service in the New York/Miami-Rio de Janeiro/Sao Paulo markets:

• New York-Rio de Janeiro. 1 daily roundtrip with B762 aircraft (8F/30C/126Y).
• New York-Sao Paulo. 1 daily roundtrip with B763 aircraft (9F/24C/156Y).
• Miami-Rio de Janeiro. 11 weekly roundtrips with B763 aircraft (9F/24C/156Y).
• Miami-Sao Paulo. 2 daily roundtrips with B763 aircraft (9F/24C/156Y).

American also notes that it has filed two other applications that, if granted, would result in broad U.S.-Brazil certificate authority, and obviate the need for specific authority between New York/Miami and Rio de Janeiro/Sao Paulo. See Docket 48301 (application filed August 18, 1992); Docket 48343 (application filed September 10, 1992). American urges the Department to act on these long-pending requests.

American Airlines, Inc.

Continental does not object to American’s request to renew its New York/Miami-Rio de Janeiro/São Paulo certificate authority, but the Department should not grant American’s requests for broad U.S.-Brazil authority unless all carriers designated for Brazil combination services receive the same broad route authority and the same flexibility to move Brazil frequencies without Department approval American has.
