US Airways, Inc.

OST-03-14671 March 7, 2003 Application for Exemption and Substitution of Gateway Fort Lauderdale-Bermuda
    Proposed Route/Schedule  
    Proposed Service  
    Service List  

US Airways' request is consistent with the rights established for U.S. carriers under the U.S.-U.K. Air Services Agreement, as amended. Atlantic City is currently designated under U.S. Route 4 as a U.S. gateway. However, no airline currently offers nonstop service between Atlantic City and Bermuda. Indeed, since Atlantic City's designation as a gateway on U.S. Route 4 in 1997, no scheduled nonstop service has ever been initiated from Atlantic City to Bermuda.

US Airways plans to operate scheduled weekend nonstop service between Fort Lauderdale and Bermuda commencing in June 2003. US Airways will operate the service initially on a seasonal basis, but intends to offer it on a year-round basis in the future. For this service, US Airways plans to utilize Airbus 319 aircraft, currently in its fleet, with 120 seats configured in a two class configuration.

On February 21, 1997, Spirit Airlines, Inc., filed an application for an emergency exemption seeking to operate service from Atlantic City to Bermuda. In its application, Spirit requested that Atlantic City be substituted as a U.S. gateway on U.S. Route 4 in place of Raleigh/Durham. By NOAT dated March 11, 1997 (Docket OST-97-2146), the Department granted Spirit's application.  No U.S. carrier is currently operating nonstop service between Atlantic City and Bermuda.  Indeed, since Atlantic City's designation as a gateway on U.S. Route 4 in 1997, no scheduled nonstop service has ever been initiated from Atlantic City to Bermuda.
