APPLICATION OF AEROLINEAS MAS, S.A. FOR AN EXEMPTION TO 

ENGAGE IN CHARTER AIR TRANSPORTATION

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. §§40109, 41301 and Part 211 of the Department's Economic 

Regulations, Aerolineas Mas, S.A. (“MAS” or “Applicant”) hereby submits its application for an 

Exemption to the extent necessary to permit MAS to engage in charter foreign air transportation of 

persons and property between a point or points in the United States of America (“USA”), including 

the island of Puerto Rico, on the one hand, to a point in the Dominican Republic (“DR”), on the 

other hand using small aircraft as defined in 14 C.F.R. §298.2.

 In support of its application and pursuant to the Department's Procedural Regulations, 

MAS submits the following information:

 

1. MAS is a privately owned corporation established under the laws of the Dominican 

Republic. See the MAS Certificate of Commercial Registration attached hereto as Exhibit MAS-9. 

The company's executive offices are located at Calle Modesto Diaz #9, Ensanche la Julia, Ciudad 

Universitaria, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.
2. The name and address of the competent air authority in the Dominican Republic is

Instituto Dominicano de Aviacion Civil located at:

 Instituto Dominicano de Aviacion Civil (“IDAC”)

Ave. Mexico Esq. 30 de Marzo

Santo Domingo, D.N.

 Dominican Republic

3. Applicant seeks an Exemption authorizing it to provide foreign charter air 

transportation between the Dominican Republic and the USA. Even though MAS is seeking 

authority to operate to any port of entry in the Southeastern United States, pursuant to a variety of 

charter requests it receives from its clients, the ports of entry in the USA that will most frequently 

be used are; a) the Miami International Airport (“MIA”); and b) the Fort Lauderdale International 

Airport (“FLL”); and c) the Palm Beach International Airport (“PBI”); and d) the Luis Muñoz 

Marín International Airport (“SJU”). By Official Communication with the reference number 

MASA005A, dated June 3, 2008, the government of the Dominican Republic granted MAS the 

authority requested herein. See the MAS Operating Licenses, attached hereto as Exhibit MAS-8.

4. MAS is owned by a corporation established in Panama (83.33%), and persons 

holding citizenship both in the Dominican Republic and the USA (16.67%). Its Board of Directors 

and Key Managers are all citizens of the Dominican Republic. On June 3, 2008 IDAC granted 

MAS authority to operate international charter passenger and cargo flights between the Dominican 

Republic and the USA.

5. MAS is a respected air carrier in the Dominican Republic, serving the Dominican 

Republic and the surrounding countries since 2008. Having begun with a single Cessna 206, MAS 

has grown to the current operation of six (6) aircraft, employs a staff of over forty (40) highly 

experienced individuals and operates scheduled flights within the Dominican Republic, to and from 

the Dominican Republic and Haiti and to and from the Dominican Republic and Aruba. Because of 

the size of its operation, its experience, respect and its safety record, MAS receives numerous 

requests for flights to the USA. MAS has chosen the Saab 340B aircraft as its primary aircraft to 
operate flights to the USA, with the occasional use of its fleet of Jetstream 31 and 32 aircraft to 

provide on-demand charters to the USA, and providing backup to the Saab 340B.

6. MAS is fit, willing, and able to provide the charter services applied for herein. The 

officers, directors and key management personnel are all experienced in their respective fields, 

including aircraft management and aircraft maintenance, and the company is led by a highly 

experienced President/CEO with a diverse business background, and a proven track record of 

success in founding and developing businesses in a variety of disciplines. MAS’s existing business 

model, augmented by its plans to operate charter flights to the USA, will assure MAS a reasonable 

return on investment. Submitted herewith in support of this application are Exhibits MAS-1 

through Exhibit MAS-16, setting forth the information required by the regulations.

7. MAS plans to initiate USA charter operations with its thirty (30) seat Saab 340B 

aircraft, and its four (4) Jetstream 31 and 32 aircraft, which Jetstream aircraft have a seating 

capacity of between twelve (12) and nineteen (19) seats, depending on need. Two of the MAS 

aircraft are registered in the USA and operated by MAS pursuant to Operations Specifications 

issued by the FAA in accordance with 14 CFR Part 129.14. MAS also operates a single Cessna 206 

aircraft for internal Dominican Republic purposes only, and will not be seeking permission to 

operate said aircraft to the USA. The maximum total payload capacity of any aircraft in the MAS 

fleet does not exceed 7,500 pounds. All MAS aircraft are small aircraft as defined in 14 C.F.R. 

§298.2(u).

8. Charter flight operations between the U.S.A. and the Dominican Republic are 

governed by principles of “comity and reciprocity.” As the Department has consistently found, the 

air services proposed herein are fully supported by the principles of comity and reciprocity since 

many USA carriers operate air services between the USA and the Dominican Republic.

9. Because of the limited scope of its proposed operations, the issuance to Applicant of 

an Exemption will not constitute a "major federal action significantly affecting the quality of

the human environment" within the meaning of §102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy

Act or a "major regulatory action" under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act.
 WHEREFORE, MAS respectfully requests that the Department issue to it an Exemption, to the 

extent necessary, to authorize it to engage in the charter foreign air transportation of persons, 

property and mail between a point or points in the Dominican Republic, on the one hand, and a 

point or points in the United States of America, including the island of Puerto Rico, on the other 

hand, using small aircraft as defined in 14 C.F.R. §298.2(u), or such other or different relief as may 

be proper.

U.S. Department of Transportation 

Office of the Secretary ofTransportation AGREEMENT 

The undersigned carriers (hereinafter refenred to as "the Carriers') hereby agree as follows: 

1. Each of the Carriers shall, effective May 16, 1966, include the following in its conditions of carriage, including tariffs embodying 

conditions of carriage filed by it with any government: 

' The Carrier shall avail itself of the limitation of liability provided in the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules 

Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw October 12th, 1929, or provided in the said Convention as amended by 

the Protocol signed at The Hague September 28th, 1955. However, in accordance with Article 22( 1) of said Convention. or said 

Convention as amended by said Protocol, the Carrier agrees that, as to all international transportation by the Carrier as defined in 

the said Convention or said Convention as amended by said Protocol. which, according to the contract of Carriage, includes a 

point in the United States of America as a point of origin, point of destination, or agreed stopping place 

(1) The limit of liability for each passenger for death, wounding, or other bodily injury shall be the sum of US $75,000 

inclusive of legal fees and costs, except that, in case of a claim brought in a State where provision is made for separate 

award of legal fees and costs. the limit shall be the sum of US $58,000 exclusive of legal fees and costs. 

(2) The Carrier shall not, with respect to any claim arising out of the death. wounding, or other bodily injury of a passenger. 

avail itself of any defense under Article 20( 1) of said Convention or said Convention as amended by said Protocol. 

Nothing herein shall be deemed to affect the rights and liabilities of the Carrier with regard to any claim brought by, on behalf 

of. or in respect of any person who has willfully caused damage which resulted in death, wounding, or other bodily injury of a 

passenger." 

2. Each Carrier shall, at the time of delivery of the ticket, furnish to each passenger whose transportation is governed by the 

Convention, or the Convention as amended by the Hague Protocol. and by the special contract described in paragraph 1, the following 

notice, which shall be printed in type at least as large as 10 point modem type and in ink contrasting with the stock on (i) each ticket; (ii) 

a piece of paper either plaoed in the ticket envelope with the ticket or attached to the ticket; or (iii) on the ticket envelope: 

"ADVICE TO INTERNATIONAL PASSENGER ON LIMITATION OF LIABILITY 

Passengers on a journey involving an unimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised 

that the provisions of a treaty known as the Warsaw Convention may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion 

entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in 

the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the 

liability of 

[certain j 

[(name of carrier) and certain other) carriers parties to such special contracts for death of or personal injury to passengers is 

limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US $75,000 per passenger, and that this liability up to such limit shall not 

depend on negligence on the part of the carrier. For such passengers traveling by a carrier not a party to such special contracts or 

on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the carrier for death or 

personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US $10,000 or US $20,000. 

The names of Carriers parties to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of such carriers and may be

AEROLINEAS MAS, S.A. 

PLAN FOR ADDRESSING THE NEEDS OF T H E FAMILIES OF 

PASSENGERS INVOLVED IN AN A IRCRAFT ACCIDENT 

Submitted to: 

The U.S. Department ofTransportation ('DOT') 

-andThe National Transportation Safety Board ("NTSB") 

Pursuant to the amendment to Chapter 413 of Title 49, United States Code, requiring the NTSB 

to address, and individual foreign air carriers to present, a Family Assistance Plan in 

accordance with the requirements of the Foreign Air Carrier Family Support Act of 1997 ('Act"'). 

the enclosed plan describes the policies and procedures Aerolineas Mas, S.A. (" Aeromas· or 

the "Airline·) shall apply in the provision of assistance to victims and next-of-kin in the event of a 

disaster involving an aircraft operated by the Ai ine . 

Aeromas respectfully submits its plan for easing the burden on families and victims following an 

aircraft disaster. for the approval of the DOT and the National Transportation Safety Board, and 

integrates this plan into Aeromas' Emergency Procedures Manual. 

The Airline will utilize the assistance of those organizations already available in the United 

States and in possession of an integrated infrastructure, in providing additional humanitarian 

assistance in the event such a response should be required. As used in this Plan, the term 

"passenger"' includes any person aboard an aircraft without regard to Whether the person paid 

for transportation, occupied a seat, or held a reservation for the flight, as well as all air carrier 

employees aboard the aircraft. 

The Airline will activate a Telephone Information Center ("TIC") at its Aeromas Headquarters in 

Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic to act as a central passenger and crew infonnation 

coordination point and a public telephone inquiry center in the event of an accident involving the 

Airline. The TIC will be responsible for communications between the Airline and the families, 

will handle all calls and requests for infonnation received from them, and will coordinate the 

provision of required assistance. The TIC will be established in close conjunction with its 

representatives in the United States. the Aviation Professionals Group, Inc. (" APG") of Fort 

Lauderdale, Florida, and will have a toll-free telephone number that will be given to the media 

for publication as soon as the TIC is manned and operational. Such center will be manned by 

individuals specially trained to handle calls from the families of passengers involved in the 

accident. Calls received from the general public or the news media will be referred to a different 

telephone number that will be made available for such purpose. 

The TIC will establish liaison with the Family Assistance Coordinator (who will be at the accident 

site) and Who will establish contact with the families, the hospital, and, as applicable, mortuaries, 

Page 2 of 6 
MAS Exhibits, Page 39

and airport authorities. Following activation of the first TIC team, subsequent teams will provide 

24-hour-a-day coverage, tor as long as reasonably necessary. 

If the accident occurs in the United States. the Command Center of the APG will assist and 

coordinate the collection and dissemination of information relating to passengers and crew and 

will arrange tor tile families resident in the United States to be advised as quickly as possible 

upon confimnation of the injury or death of a passenger or crew member. The TIC will provide 

the APG Command Center with a confirmed passenger and crew list as soon as possible. 

The Airline will have the option of providing a representative to accompany Police Officers when 

notifying families in person, which will be done to the extent practical. However, if notification will 

thereby be delayed, careful consideration will be given before exercising this option. 

If the accident occurs outside the United States, the Airline may avail itself of assistance from an 

organization with similar responsibilities (for example, a Police Casualty Bureau) that may assist 

with the emergency procedures. 

Forthwith upon the occurrence of an incident involving an aircraft under the control of Aeromas 

and resulting in a major loss of life, all efforts will be placed in the establishment of a complete. 

accurate list of the passengers and crew on board the ftight. The process will involve 

reconciliation of the Airline's central, computerized passenger records with the ticket coupons, boarding passes and other data collected or generated at the departure airport of the ftight. 

Once the names reconciliation has been completed and a passenger list generated, the family 

contact process will be initiated. Such ot~icatio s to families will take place without delay and 

prior to any public notice or release of names infomnation to the media. Every effort will be made 

to notify individual families as and when verification of the respective passenger's presence on 

the ftight occurs, rather than awaiting completion of all verifications. Verification processes will 

continue as necessary until complete assurance has been obtained of the accuracy of the 

names of all persons aboard lhe ftight. Suitable trained individuals from tile Airline·s own staff. 

the APG, the US authorities, d in the United States. and from the Airline's headquarters in Santo 

Domingo, Dominican Republic, if abroad, will provide in person notification to the families except 

where such in person notification is impossible. 

If requested, tile Airline will immediately provide the NTSB director of family support services 

and other officially designated organization, a copy of the initial, and all subsequent updates of 

the passenger list. 

Under no circumstances will the names of passengers on board be publicly released until the 

respective family has first been notified, unless otherwise directed by the NTSB. 

The Airline will solicit and honor the family's wishes with respect to the disposition of all remains 

and personal effects of lhe passenger under tile Airline·s control, and will comply with the 

authorities· decisions advising the families in such regard. Disposition of unidentifiable remains 

shall be the responsibility of the local medical examiner, coroner or other official party.
