__________________________________________ ) Application of ) ) CARIBBEAN AIRLINES LIMITED ) DOCKET DOT-OST-2010-0232 ) September 22, 2010 for an exemption from 49 U.S.C. § 41301 ) (Jamaica/Caribbean Points-U.S.) ) ___________________________________________)

AMENDMENT TO APPLICATION OF CARIBBEAN AIRLINES LIMITED FOR AN EXEMPTION

By application dated September 14, 2010, Caribbean Airlines Limited

("CAL") requested an exemption from the provisions of 49 U.S.C. § 41301 to

the extent necessary to permit CAL to engage in air transportation between

the U.S., on the one hand, and Jamaica and certain other Caribbean points,

on the other. Under an agreement between the governments of Trinidad and

Tobago and Jamaica, CAL is assuming the operations of Air Jamaica. CAL

therefore intends to seek authority to serve the same U.S. routes that DOT

has authorized Air Jamaica to serve. However, CAL's September 14 route

request inadvertently omitted a request to co-terminalize Barbados with

Grenada and St. Lucia on flights to and from New York; Air Jamaica holds

that authority today through the Notice of Action Taken dated March 8, 2004

in Docket OST-1999-5544 (renewal application pending).Caribbean Airlines Amendment to Exemption Application Page 2

Thus, CAL respectfully amends its application by modifying the final

two paragraphs of its route request to read as follows:

scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail from points behind Jamaica, via Jamaica and intermediate points, to a point or points in the United States and beyond;

charter foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail between any point or points in the United States and any foreign point or points, provided that, except with respect to cargo charters, such service constitutes part of a continuous operation, with or without a change of aircraft, that includes services to Jamaica for the purpose of carrying local traffic between Jamaica and the United States;

scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between the coterminal points Barbados, Grenada, and St. Lucia, on the one hand, and the terminal point New York, New York on the other hand; and

scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between Barbados and Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Including Barbados as a co-terminal point, on a route Air Jamaica has been

authorized to serve since 2004, should not be controversial. Further, as

explained in the September 14 application, the new U.S.-Trinidad and

Tobago open skies agreement, Department precedent, and the public interest

all support the inclusion of Barbados in this fashion.

WHEREFORE, Caribbean Airlines Limited respectfully amends its

September 14, 2010 exemption application to reflect the route description

listed above and requests that the Department of Transportation

expeditiously grant the exemption described herein and such other relief as

may be necessary or appropriate.Caribbean Airlines Amendment to Exemption Application Page 3
