OST-97-2568 | May 30, 1997

Application for Renewal of a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity

HTML

Delta has provided continuous Atlanta-London service since it commenced service on this route almost 20 years ago. Delta provides year round, twice-daily service between Atlanta and London (Gatwick) using McDonnell Douglas MD-11 aircraft.

Segment 4 of Route 178 authorizes Delta to engage in foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail between the terminal point Atlanta, Georgia, the intermediate point London, England, and the terminal point Copenhagen, Denmark. While Delta's authority to serve Copenhagen under segment 4 is for an indefinite duration, its authority to serve London as an intermediate point is coextensive with its segment 1 authority, which expires on November 29, 1997. (See conditions 7 and 8). Therefore, to the extent necessary, Delta seeks renewal of its Atlanta-London authority under segments 1 and 4. Delta further requests, to the extent necessary, continued route integration authority consistent with Order 96-7-42 (served August 5, 1996), in order to permit Delta to integrate its Atlanta-London route authority with all of Delta's existing certificate and exemption authority to the extent permitted by applicable international agreements.
