February 11, 2002 | Answer of United Air Lines | Exemption and Foreign Air Carrier Permit - Argentina-US |
| Service List |
United does not object, in principle, to Southern Winds obtaining the permit and exemption authority necessary to exercise the rights provided for Argentineflag carriers under the U.S.-Argentina bilateral agreement. Such authority, however, should not be granted until U.S. carriers are assured their ability to fully exercise their own bilateral rights, including those pertaining to revenue conversion and remittance of funds, are secure and unimpaired. As of December 1, 2001, U.S. carrier assets held in bank accounts in Argentina have been frozen. Although U.S. carriers' individual banks are permitted to remit funds upon authorization by the Central Bank of Argentina, U.S. carriers' repeated requests to repatriate these funds have gone unacknowledged by the Central Bank.
Although United is sensitive to the difficulties facing the Argentine economy, such pressures do not justify this clear infringement of U.S. carriers' bilateral rights. These unlawful restrictions seriously impair U.S. carriers' cash flow and threaten the viability of their U.S.-Argentina operations. Indeed, these unlawful restrictions threaten the very services that help support trade between the two countries during this economic crisis.
