**APPLICATION OF AMERICAN EAGLE AIRLINES, INC. FOR AN OPEN SKIES CERTIFICATE** 

American Eagle Airlines, Inc., under 49 USC 41102,

hereby applies for a certificate of public convenience and

necessity authorizing scheduled foreign air transportation of

person, property, and mail from a point or points in the United

States, via intermediate points, to a point or points in any

open skies country listed at http://ostpxweb.dot.gov/aviation/

international/agreementsbeingapplied.htm

American Eagle holds certificates to engage in interstate air transportation (Order 1998-4-24) and to engage in

foreign air transportation to points in the Caribbean (Route

537) and to points in Canada (Route 661) (both issued by Order

1998-5-12). American Eagle also holds exemption authority to

serve named points in Mexico. On March 25, 2011, American

Eagle requested that those exemptions be consolidated into a

U.S.-Mexico certificate (DOT-OST-2005-22228).- 2 -

The open skies certificate American Eagle is seeking is

consistent with the public interest and with authority granted

to other carriers. See Order 2007-4-2 (American); Order 2007-

4-19 (United); Order 2007-4-20 (US Airways); Order 2007-4-17

(Delta); and Order 2007-7-3 (15 carriers). The Department

should issue an equivalent certificate to American Eagle.

Respectfully submitted,

CARL B. NELSON Associate General Counsel American Airlines, Inc.

On behalf of American Eagle Airlines, Inc.
