Application for an Amended Foreign Air Carrier Permit and Exemption Authority

Global Jet Luxembourg SA requests an amended foreign air carrier permit to the full extent authorized by the Air Transport Agreement Between the United States and the European Community and the Member States of the European Community to enable it to engage in: a) foreign charter air transportation of persons and property from any point or points behind any Member State of the European Union via any point or points in any Member State and via intermediate points to any point or points in the United States and beyond; b) foreign charter air transportation of persons and property between any point or points in the United States and any point or points in any member of the European Common Aviation Area; c) other charters pursuant to the prior approval requirements set forth in Part 212 of the Department's Economic Regulations; and d) transportation authorized by any additional route rights made available to European Community carriers in the future.

OJL requests that the authority described above be issued expeditiously. Given that the US-EC Agreement will take effect March 30, 2008, GJL requests that the authority be granted to become effective as of that date or on any earlier date on which the US-EC Agreement is being applied.

Order Granting Exemption and to Show Cause

We grant the request of Global Jet Luxembourg S.A. for an exemption under 49 U.S.C. §40109 to permit it (1) effective on the issue date of this order, to accept payments, issue tickets, and enter into charter contracts, and (2) effective March 30, 2008, to commence flight operations, for the services set forth below: (a) foreign charter air transportation of persons and property from any point or points behind any Member State of the European Union, via any point or points in any Member State and via intermediate points to any point or points in the United States and beyond; (b) foreign charter air transportation of persons and property between any point or points in the United States and any point or points in any member of the European Common Aviation Area; (c) other charters pursuant to the prior approval requirements set forth in the Department’s regulations governing charters; and (d) transportation authorized by any additional rights made available to European Community carriers in the future.

To the extent not acted upon above, we dismiss all requests for exemption authority in Docket OST-2008-0013.

With respect to the applicant’s request for a foreign air carrier permit in this proceeding, we direct all interested persons to show cause why our tentative decision on that application, set forth above, should not be made final. Any interested person objecting to the issuance of an order making final our tentative findings and conclusions with respect to the applicant’s request for a foreign air carrier permit shall, no later than twenty-one calendar days after the date of service of this order, file with the Department.
