BEFORE THE UNITED STATES
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
WASHINGTON, DC.
Application of:
SERVICIOS AEREOS INTERESTATALES, S.A. DE C.V.
for an exemption pursuant to 49 USC 40109 (U.S./Mexico Charter Air Transportation)
APPLICATION OF SERVICIOS AEREOS INTERESTATALES, S.A. DE C.V.
FOR RENEWAL OF EXEMPTION
Pursuant to 49 U. S. C. 40109 and the Department's regulations,
SERVICIOS AEREOS INTERESTATALES, S.A. DE C.V. (SAISA) hereby applies for renewal of its
exemption
from 49 U.S C. 40301 which
authorizes SAISA to engage in charter foreign air
transportation of persons and their accompanying baggage with small aircraft between the United
States and Mexico, and, subject to prior Department approval, between other countries and the
United States. SAISA also requests renewal of its relief from the requirement to obtain advance
approval for each Mexico-U.S. flight and stopover privileges. The Department granted the above
authority to SAISA by Notice of Action Taken dated on December 20, 2007. SAISA requests that
this authority, which is scheduled to expire on December 20, 2009, be renewed for a period of at
least two years.
SAISA invokes the automatic extension provisions of the Administrative
Procedure Act, 5 U. S. C. 558 (c), as implemented by 14 C.F.R. Part 377, to maintain its exemption
authority in effect pending a final Department detemnination on this renewal application.
In support of this application, SAISA states as follows:
1:-SAISA continues to be fit, willing and able to provide the small aircraft
passenger charter services for which it requests renewed authority. The relevant circumstances
under which SAISA received its initial grant of exemption authority are unchanged.
2.-SAISA's Third and Fourth Freedom charter authority is authorized by
Annex II to the U. S. - Mexico Air Transport Agreement, and is therefore presumptively in the public
interest. SAISA's Fifth Freedom charter authority is based on principles of comity and reciprocity, as
is its relief from the advance approval requirement for transborder charter flights and any grant of
stopover privileges. SAISA submits that continuation of this extra-bilateral authorizations is
warranted given the harmonius state of aviation relations between the U.S. and Mexico.
Consequently, renewal of all elements of SAISA's authority would be consistent with the public
interest. Further, the services provided by SAISA satisfy a continuing need and other wise serve the
public interest by fostering commerce between Mexico and the United States consistent with the
objectives of the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
3.- SAISA's renewal application is limited in scope and non-controversial.
The services SAISA proposes to operate are substantially identical to those it performed during the
past year, i.e. highly personalized transport servk:es to executives and their invitees using small
business-type aircraft. SAISA's Mexican authority to engage in transborder passenger charter
services remains in full force and effect, as does its U.S. authority pursuant to its FAA Part 129
Operations Specifications.
WHEREFORE, SAISA respectfully requests renewal of its authority to
engage in charter foreign air transportation of persons and their accompanying baggage with small
aircraft as set forth herein, and such other relief as may be in the public interest.
Respectfully submitted,
CAP. ARTURO RODRIGUEZ MATA
