XX Granted (subject to conditions, see below)

The above action was effective when taken: August 10, 2010 , through August 10, 2012

. Action taken by: Paul L. Gretch, Director

Office of International Aviation

XX The authority granted is consistent with the aviation agreement between the United States and

Colombia.

Except to the extent exempted or waived, this authorit y is subject to the terms, conditions, and limitations

indicated: XX The holder’s certificate of public convenience and necessity

XX Standard exemption conditions (attached)

Conditions: The authority granted to serve intermediate and beyond points is limited to countries with which the United States has signed open-skies agreem ents and/or countries for which Centurion holds authority to serve under certificates and exemptions issued by the Department.

The route integration authority granted is subject to the condition that any service provided under this exemption shall be consistent with all applicable agreements between the United States and the foreign countries involved. Furthermore, (a) nothing in the award of the route integration authority requested should be construed as conferring upo n Centurion rights (including fift h-freedom intermediate and/or beyond rights) to serve markets where U.S. carrier entry is limited unless Centurion notifies the Department of its intent to serve such a market and unless and until the Department has completed any necessary carrier selection procedures to determine whic h carrier(s) should be authorized to exercise such rights; and (b) should there be a request by any carrier to use the limited-entry route rights that are included in Centurion’s authority by virtue of the r oute integration exemption granted here, but that are not then being used by Centurion, the holding of such authority by route integration will not be considered as providing any preference for Centurion in a competitive carrier selection proceeding to determine which carrier(s) should be en titled to use the authority at issue.On the basis of data officially noticeable under Rule 24(g) of the Department's regulations, we found the applicant qualified to provide the exemption services authorized.

Under authority assigned by the Department in its regulations, 14 CFR Part 385, we found that (1) our action was consistent with Department policy; (2) gr ant of the authority was consistent with the public interest; and (3) grant of the authority would not constitute a major regulatory action under the Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975. To the extent not granted, we denied all requests in the referenced

Docket. We may amend, modify, or revoke the authorit y granted in this Notice at any time without hearing at our discretion.

Persons entitled to petition the Department for review of the action set forth in this Notice under the Department’s regulations, 14 CFR §385.30, may file their petitions with in seven (7) days after the date of

issuance of this Notice. This action was effective wh en taken, and the filing of a petition for review will

not alter such effectiveness.
