Application for Renewal of an Exemption

Applies for renewal of its exemptions to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between Boston, Massachusetts, and Nassau, Bahamas (Docket OST-02-13854, NOAT issued December 4, 2002), between New York (LGA), New York, and Nassau, Bahamas (Docket OST-00-7339, NOAT issued April 15, 2002), and between Washington, DC, and Nassau, Bahamas (Docket OST-02-12481, NOAT issued July 3, 2002). In addition, US Airways requests that the Department give these three exemption authorities a common expiration date, and, to the extent permitted, consolidate these Nassau exemption authorities into one of these dockets.

US Airways currently operates service or plans to resume service in each of these markets using Airbus and/or Boeing aircraft.

With this renewal application, US Airways seeks to renew these exemption authorities and further requests that the Department establish a common expiration date for them. Furthermore, to the extent possible, US Airways requests that its Nassau exemption authorities be consolidated into one docket. Establishing a common expiration date for these Nassau exemption authorities and further consolidating them in a single docket would facilitate the administration and processing of US Airways' Nassau exemption authorities for the Department as well as US Airways. It would also obviate the need for multiple renewal filings.

Re: Withdraw of Applications for Renewal

US Airways withdraws these applications because of the July 26, 2004 Notice of Action Taken in Docket OST-01-9766, which granted broad economic authority for US Airways service to and from Bahamas and rendered the above-referenced applications moot.
