JOINT MOTION FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT

UNDER 14 C.F.R § 302.12

Ameromexico and Delta have filed an application for approval of and antitrust immunity 

for a proposed Alliance involving U.S.-Mexico transborder routes under a Joint Cooperation 

Agreement (“JCA”). The new proposed Alliance will enable Delta and Aeromexico to provide 

consumers with expanded and more efficient service options on transborder routes. In support 

of their Joint Application, Delta and Aeromexico are providing the Department with documents

and data that contain confidential, proprietary and commercially sensitive information. Pursuant 

to Rule 12 of the Department’s Rules of Practice,1 Delta and Aeromexico request that the 

Department withhold from public disclosure the documents under seal that the Joint Applicants 

have included with this Motion, as well as any future submission of data or similar materials in 

this proceeding.

1 14 C.F.R. § 302.12.

 
Joint Motion for Confidential Treatment

Page 2

The Department on numerous occasions has granted similar requests for confidential 

treatment,2 and it should do the same here. As explained below, the documents herein include 

highly sensitive market and competitive analyses that are kept strictly confidential and not 

shared with any outside party.

1. In connection with the Joint Application, the Joint Applicants are submitting 

certain documents such as the JCA and internal planning documents that contain highly 

confidential and proprietary business information. These documents, including the JCA and 

internal corporate records summarized in the attached indexes and data description, provide 

information similar to that required by the Department in other antitrust immunity cases, for 

which confidential treatment was granted.3

2. These documents are confidential and proprietary and are protected from public 

disclosure under various exemptions under the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA"), including 5 

U.S.C. §§ 552(b)(3) and (b)(4). Exemption 3 protects from disclosure information specifically 

protected by another federal statute, including 49 U.S.C. § 40115.4

 Section 40115 states that 

the Department “shall” withhold from public disclosure, among other things, information that 

would adversely affect an air carrier’s competitive position in foreign air transportation. The 

documents at issue here clearly satisfy this standard. They contain extremely sensitive 

information that has not been made available to the public and which is not disclosed to any 

third party. If disclosed, this information could be used by competitors to their strategic 

advantage, and to Delta and Aeromexico’s disadvantage, in making competitive decisions.

3. Further, Exemption 4 protects from public disclosure information that is “(1) 

commercial or financial, (2) obtained from a person outside the government, and (3) privileged 

2 See, e.g., Notice Providing Access to Documents, Docket OST-2009-0155 (July 16, 2009); Notice 

Providing Access to Documents, Docket 2008-0252 (Aug. 19, 2008); Notice Providing Access to 

Documents, Docket OST-2008-0234 (July 24, 2008).

4 See British Airports Authority v. CAB, 531 F. Supp. 408, 414 (D.D.C. 1982).

 
Joint Motion for Confidential Treatment

or confidential.” The documents submitted here under seal clearly satisfy this standard as well. 

All are commercial or financial in nature. They were obtained from a private citizen. And the 

documents are privileged or confidential. Delta and Aeromexico would suffer substantial 

competitive harm if the documents were disclosed to the public. Public disclosure of such 

information could impair the Government’s ability to obtain necessary information in the future or 

. . . cause substantial harm to the competitive position of the person from whom the information 

was obtained.

5

4. Due to the nature of the documents Delta and Aeromexico have filed, Rule 12 

access should be limited to counsel and outside experts who file an affidavit stating that they will 

(a) use the information only for the purpose of participating in this proceeding; and (b) not 

disclose the information to anyone other than counsel or outside experts who have filed a valid 

affidavit with the Department.

5. The documents Delta and Aeromexico have filed under Rule 12 contain 

confidential, proprietary and highly sensitive commercial information relating to international 

strategy, performance, and planning. In order to protect the Joint Applicants' ability to compete 

effectively in international markets, it is imperative that this information not be disclosed to its 

competitors, even under Rule 12 procedures. In the course of similar antitrust proceedings, the 

Department has routinely limited Rule 12 access to such information to counsel and outside 

experts.6 By limiting access in this manner, the Department can permit parties to fully 

participate in this proceeding while limiting the risk of competitive harm that would result if the 

information were disclosed.

WHEREFORE, for the foregoing reasons, Delta and Aeromexico respectfully request 

that the Department grant their Motion for Confidential Treatment; withhold from public 

5 Gulf and Western Indus., Inc. v. United States, 615 F.2d 527, 529 (D.C. Cir. 1980).

6 See, e.g., Notices Providing Access to Documents, supra note 3.

 
Joint Motion for Confidential Treatment

disclosure the confidential, proprietary and commercially sensitive information Delta and 

Aeromexico have filed (and subsequently may file) under seal; and limit Rule 12 access to 

counsel and outside experts as described above.

Attachment A

Description of Document Production

Delta and Aeromexico are submitting internal corporate documents relating to the Joint 

Cooperation Agreement (JCA). Delta and Aeromexico conducted a thorough search of their 

corporate records following the guidelines of the Hart-Scott Rodino (HSR) Notification process. 

This is the same standard and document production used by and applied by the Department in 

connection with its evaluation of the Delta/Virgin Atlantic alliance. See, Application of Delta and 

Virgin Atlantic, Appendix B, DOT-OST-2013- 0068.

Following the HSR 4(c) and 4(d) document production guidelines, the Delta and 

Aeromexico document documents produced in connection with this application include all 

studies, surveys, analyses and reports which were prepared by or for any officer(s) or director(s) 

for the purpose of evaluating or analyzing the Delta/Aeromexico JCA with respect to market 

shares, competition, competitors, markets, potential for sales growth or expansion into product 

or geographic markets. Delta and AeroMexico are producing the HSR 4(c) and 4(d) type 

documents in their entirety to assist the Department in its review and approval of the antitrust 

immunity application. As described in the foregoing motion, these documents contain 

confidential proprietary information, and are being furnished pursuant to the Department’s Rule 

12 procedures. 
Attachment B-1

Demand (Market Share) Data

Using MIDT or other market demand data source, for the most recent 12-month period available provide 

directional net passenger bookings for all itineraries that touch Mexico. Include the following data 

elements:

Field 1: Trip Originating Airport

Field 2: Booked Point of Sale Country Code

Field 3: Airport Path and Marketing Carrier Designator String by Leg

Example: Atlanta – Mexico City – Quito directional trip with segments marketed by DL, AM respectively

would be reported as “ATL DL MEX AM UIO”. Use a “//” to represent the marketing carrier on any 

ARNK (Arrival Not Known) segments.

Field 4: Volume of Net Bookings

Include an explanation of the trip break methodology used to create directional trips from itinerary data.

Origin Destination Fare Data

For all itineraries that Delta or Aeromexico participate in, provide all itineraries that touch Mexico. The 

Department prefers the O&D data represent an internal 100% census of itineraries meeting the above 

criteria, however suitable alternatives will be considered if proposed. Data should be submitted on a 

quarterly basis for the most recent year ended period for which data is available. Provide all information 

for any itinerary that was begun during the period described above irrespective of when the full itinerary 

was completed.

Provide the itinerary in an origin-destination (by direction of travel) format, referred to as 

“market directional.” Provide the number of (1) passengers, (2) market fare, (3) purchase class,

(4) period, (5) airport sequence, (6) operating carrier code sequence, (7) change in operating 

carrier flag, (8) ticketing/marketing carrier code sequence, (9) change in ticketing/marketing 

carrier flag, (10) origin, (11) destination, (12) number of market coupons, (13) sequence number 

of each market directional that makes a full itinerary, (14) total distance flown (all kilometers 

converted to miles), (15) distance between the origin and destination (all kilometers converted to 

miles), (16) unique itinerary identifier, (17) one-way/round-trip itinerary identifier, (18) reporting 

carrier, and a (19) full itinerary online identifier. Fares must include all taxes, fees, and 

applicable surcharges (particularly any fuel surcharges paid.) Provide the passenger counts 

summarized by the unique combination of period, flight sequence, ticketing/marketing carrier 

sequence, operating carrier sequence, reporting carrier, directional market fare, one-way/roundtrip itinerary identifier, full itinerary online identifier, and purchase class value.

For itineraries that include a segment provided by ground transportation, note the ground segment 

as ‘—‘ in the tkcarriergroup and opcarriergroup variables.

Provide a description of the methodologies used to determine market directional trip breaks 

within itineraries and the prorate for assigning the market directional fare from the full itinerary 

fare. DOT proposes using the industry standard “four hour rule” for intra-North American travel 

and the “24-hour rule” for all other travel to determine market directional trip breaks. DOT 

prefers the use of the square root of the miles methodology for market directional fare proration. 

Square root of the miles methodology distributes the itinerary revenue by dividing the itinerary 

fare by the square root of the number of miles distance between airports in the itinerary. To the 
Attachment B-2

extent the applicants prefer to use alternative methodologies for determining market directional 

trip breaks or prorates, they are required to provide appropriate methodological descriptions and 

validation.

The purchase class values should provide detail that allows for the evaluation of a given 

itinerary’s level of service purchased. The classes should be broken down by both Restricted and 

Unrestricted fares sold in First Class, Business Class, Premium Economy, and Economy cabins. 

DOT is open to alternative mappings and levels of detail that the applicants may suggest. If 

multiple purchase classes are assigned to different segments in a market directional provide the 

most premium class assigned from any of the segments in the market directional.

Figure 1 provides a detailed listing of the variables required (meta data) and Figure 2 provides a 

sample of the final format. The minimum combination of variables that make each row unique 

(composite primary key for the dataset) is highlighted in yellow.

Provide the data electronically as a comma separated value (CSV) or other delimited text file 

format. If a format other then CSV is selected provide the meta-data detail necessary to allow for 

the loading of the data into a relational database environment.
