APPLICATION OF FRONTIER AIRLINES, INC. FOR RENEWAL OF AN EXEMPTION Pursuant to Subpart C of the Department’s Rules of Practice, Frontier Airlines, Inc. (“Frontier”) hereby applies under 49 U.S.C. § 40109 for renewal of its exemption authorizing it to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between a point or points in the United States and a point or points in the Dominican Republic. Frontier requests that this exemption authority be renewed for a period of at least two years. In support of this Renewal Application, Frontier states as follows: 1. By Notice of Action Taken, dated December 28, 2011, in this Docket, the Department granted Frontier exemption authority for scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between the United States and the Dominican Republic. Frontier operates scheduled service between several U.S. cities and the Dominican Republic. 2. Approval of this renewal application is in the public interest. Frontier’s services under this exemption authority provide attractive, competitive air transportation options for travelers seeking convenient service between the United States and the Dominican Republic.Renewal Application of Frontier Airlines, Inc.

Renewal of this exemption authority is also fully consistent with the terms of the Air Transport Agreement between the United States and the Dominican Republic and the overall state of aviation relations between the two countries, as the Department previously concluded in granting this authority in 2011. 4. Frontier requests that the Department take official notice, pursuant to Rule 24 of the Department’s Rules of Practice, of all other data on file with the Department necessary to establish its fitness. 5. In filing this renewal application, Frontier hereby invokes the automatic extension provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. § 558(c), as implemented by 14 C.F.R. Part 377. Frontier’s current exemption authority for United States – Dominican Republic service expires on December 28, 2013. This application is therefore timely filed pursuant to Section 377.10(c). WHEREFORE, Frontier respectfully requests that the Department promptly renew Frontier’s exemption authority for scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail between the United States and the Dominican Republic, as described herein.
Respectfully submitted,
