American requests a statement of authorization to display's 18* designator code in conjunction with foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail on flights operated by American or its affiliates between (1) points in the United States; (2) points in the United States and points in Spain (either nonstop or via intermediate points in third countries); (3) points in the United States and points in third countries: and (4) points in Spain and points in third countries.

Iberia requests a statement of authorization to display American's AA* designator code in conjunction with foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail on flights operated by Iberia between (1) points in Spain; (2) points in Spain and points in the United States (either nonstop or via intermediate points in third countries); (3) points in Spain and points in third countries; and (4) points in the United States and points in third countries.

Effective March 30, 2008, American will hold all necessary underlying route authority on its open skies certificate for Route 835, issued by Order 2007-4-2, April 1, 2007. Iberia is contemporaneously herewith submitting an application for exemption authority and for an amended foreign air carrier permit reflecting open skies effective March 30, 2008. Iberia will similarly hold all necessary underlying route authority under such open skies exemption authority and amended foreign air carrier permit.
