OST-98-3581 | March 4, 1998

Application for an Emergency Exemption

HTML

The authority requested in this application will enable America West to meet the demand for nonstop service between Phoenix and Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo, and will also provide a convenient connection in Phoenix for passengers travelling from other cities to Ixtapa/Zihuatanejo. Granting America West's application for this exemption authority is clearly in the public interest, and provides the public with increased service options on a U. S. air carrier for travel between the U.S. and this popular tourist destination in Mexico.

America West wishes to start operating this service on May 20, 1998, and requests that the Department grant this authority as soon as possible to enable America West to start marketing this service and to obtain the necessary authority from the Mexican government. America West requests this authority be granted for a term of two years.
