Application for Renewal of Exemptions

Delta offers nonstop San Diego‑Loreto and San Diego‑Mazatlan service by displaying its designator code on flights operated by Aeromexico. Renewal of Delta's exemption authority for these routes is in the public interest because it will allow Delta to maintain such San Diego‑Mexico transborder services, which have enhanced competition and expanded price and service options for U.S.‑Mexico travelers and shippers. In addition, the authority to provide service on these routes continues to be consistent with the U.S.‑Mexico Air Transport Services Agreement, as amended.

Application for Renewal of Exemptions

Delta hereby applies under 49 U.S.C. § 40109 for renewal of exemptions authorizing Delta to continue to provide scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail on the U.S.-Mexico routes identified in Exhibit A. This renewal application encompasses multiple docketed exemptions that Delta relies upon to provide nonstop U.S.-Mexico services either with its own aircraft or pursuant to a codeshare arrangement with Aerovias de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. Delta requests that these exemptions be renewed for a period of at least two years, with a common expiration date, or until 90 days after the Department's final determination on Delta's application for amended certificate authority as it pertains to each of the routes identified herein, filed on November 30, 2004 and supplemented on October 17, 2005 in Docket OST-1999-6275, whichever occurs earlier. The establishment of a common renewal date will promote administrative efficiency and reduce the burden on Delta and the Department in maintaining these multiple and non-controversial U.S.-Mexico exemption authorities.
