d/b/a/ INTERJET

for an Exemption pursuant to 49 U.S.C.

§ 40109 to engage in Scheduled Foreign

Docket DOT-OST-2012-0140

APPLICATION OF

ABC AEROLÍNEAS, S.A. de C.V., d/b/a INTERJET

TO AMEND EXEMPTION

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. §40109, ABC Aerolíneas, S.A. de C.V., d/b/a

Interjet, hereby applies to amend its exemption from 49 U.S.C. § 41302 in the

above docket in order to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of

persons, property, and mail between San Antonio, Texas, and Monterrey,

Mexico.

Interjet requests expedited approval of this Application in order to

commence service on this route this coming Sunday, November 11, 2012. The

plans of Interjet to introduce service on this route and this Application for

exemption authority have been made on short notice since the DGAC of Mexico

has just granted Interjet authority to operate on this new route. Interjet is

desirous of introducing service as soon as possible in order to position itself to

meet the heavy demand for air travel occasioned by the upcoming Thanksgiving

holiday in the United States.
Application of ABC Aerolíneas, S.A. de C.V., Page 2

d/b/a Interjet, to Amend Exemption

Interjet understands that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mexico has

forwarded to U.S. authorities the official designation of Interjet to operate on the

Monterrey - San Antonio route pursuant to the Air Transport Agreement between

the United States and Mexico. Interjet will poll the parties on the attached

Service List and will report the results of its poll to the Department.

Approval of this Application is in the public interest. The proposed service

will enhance commercial ties between San Antonio and Monterrey, a major

industrial center in Mexico. In addition to business travel in both directions,

many Mexicans travel to San Antonio for personal reasons such as shopping

and visiting family.

Interjet is well-positioned to provide dependable, value-based air

transportation in the San Antonio - Monterrey market. Interjet established its

presence at San Antonio at the same time that it inaugurated its first U.S.

service—by introducing service between San Antonio and Mexico City on

December 1, 2011. Interjet is also well established at Monterrey. Monterrey was

one of the first points that Interjet served in Mexico and is a point at which Interjet

currently conducts extensive operations.

Interjet was established in March of 2005. It began domestic Mexican

operations in December of 2005 with a fleet of A320 aircraft. As stated above, It

started service to the U.S. market in December of 2011 with flights between San

Antonio and Mexico City. Interjet has since introduced service between Mexico

City, on the one hand, and Miami, New York (JFK), and Orange County,

California, on the other; between Guadalajara and Orange County; and, effective

Conclusion

For the foregoing reasons, the Department of Transportation should

amend the exemption granted to ABC Aerolíneas, S.A. de C.V., d/b/a Interjet, in

this docket in order to authorize Interjet to operate scheduled foreign air

transportation of persons, property, and mail between San Antonio, Texas, and

Monterrey, Mexico. Interjet requests that the exemption as amended be

effective for a period of two years from the date of the renewal.

Respectfully submitted,
