OST-2007-29308 - US Airways - Phoenix-Mexican Points
|
US Airways, Inc. OST-2007-29308 - Exemption - Phoenix-Mexican Points September 20, 2007 US Airways hereby applies for an exemption from 49 U.S.C. 41101 and a designation in order to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between Phoenix, Arizona, and Acapulco, Mexico City, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, San Jose del Cabo, Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, and Manzanillo, Mexico. The carrier requests that this exemption take effect not later than 12:00 a.m. September 26, 2007, in order to allow uninterrupted service in these markets after America West Airlines, Inc. ceases existence as an operating carrier and US Airways assumes its operations. The final step in the merger process will occur at 12:00 a.m. on September 26, 2007, when America West ceases to exist as an operating carrier. At that time, US Airways will assume all operations conducted by America West. Although US Airways already has virtually all the authority needed to assume these operations, service to the seven Mexican points named above still requires action by the Department. Accordingly, the exemption authority requested herein is needed in order to permit uninterrupted operation of the Phoenix, Arizona - Mexico service now being conducted by America West. US Airways further requests that the United States Government designate it under the Agreement for service on the above-referenced city-pair routes. America West will, once the subject application has been granted, lodge a request by letter to the Department surrendering its designation, effective September 26, 2007. Counsel: US Airways, Howard Kass, 202-326-5153, howard_kass@usairways.com
