APPLICATION OF 

SERVICIOS AEREOS M.T.T., S.A. DE C.V. 

FOR REINSTATEMENT OF AN EXEMPTION 

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. 40109 and the Department's regulations, Servicios Aereos 

M.T.T., S.A. de C.V. hereby applies for reinstatement of its exemption from 49 U.S.C. 

41301 which authorizes Servicios to engage in charter foreign air transportation of 

persons and their accompanying baggage between the United States and Mexico with 

small aircraft and, subject to prior Department approval, between other countries and the 

United States. Servicios also requests reinstatement of its stopover privileges and relief 

from any requirement to obtain advance approval for each Mexico U.S. flight. The 

Department last granted the above authority to Servicios by Notice of Action Taken dated 

January 13, 2010. Servicios requests that this authority, which expired on January 13, 

2012, be reinstated for a period of two years or alternatively for a period of at least one 

year. 

In support of this application, Servicios states as follows: 

1. The relevant circumstances under which Servicios received its initial grant of 

exemption authority are essentially unchanged, as contained in Docket DOT-
OST-2001-10786. Servicios' only change was the sale of its original and only 

aircraft (Cessna 208B) in January of 2011 and the subsequent purchase of a 

new aircraft (Pilatus turboprop PC-12/4 7) in October of 2011, which now uses 

the same tail number (XA-MTA) as the original aircraft. The new aircraft 

consists of 2 crew members and seats 8 passengers. The ownership and 

operation of the new aircraft remains the same as the original aircraft. 

2. Servicios' application for reinstatement of its exemption is limited in scope and 

non-controversial. The services Servicios proposes to operate are substantially 

identical to those it had performed in the years it previously had authority, i. e. 

highly personalized transport services to executives of Servicios and its related 

companies and their invitees using small private business-type aircraft. 

Servicios' Mexican authority to engage in transborder charter passenger 

services remains in full force and effect, as does its U.S. authority pursuant to 

its FAA Part 129 Operations Specifications. 

WHEREFORE, Servicios respectfully requests reinstatement of its authority to 

engage in charter foreign air transportation of persons and their accompanying baggage 

with small private aircraft as set forth herein, and such other relief as may be in the public 

interest.
