Proposal to Provide Essential Air Service at Port Alexander, Alaska (Docket DOT-OST-1999-6244)
EAS@dot.gov

Enclosed is Harris Aircraft Services, Inc. response to Order Requesting Proposals, Docket OST-1999-6244 providing weekly service to the community ofPort Alexander, Alaska. Harris Aircraft Services, Inc. is located in Sitka, Alaska. Harris Aircraft Services has provided essential air service to Port Alexander for the last twelve years. We have performed the service in an efficient and safe manner. Harris Aircraft Services has worked hard to accommodate and develop a good working relationship with the traveling community members ofPort Alexander.

.Harris Aircraft Services is submitting aproposal for the same frequency as in the last two years. We have increased the seat fare base rate from $125.59 to $130.23. Two basic factors have caused the seat fare rate and subsidy request to increase. The overall expenses have slightly increased in the last two years along with fuel. The seat fare is still avery reasonable rate considering the distance and equipment used. We welcome any opportunity for further discussion inregards to this proposal. You may contact Scott Harris or Mark Hackett at (907) 966-3050. Sincerely,
