APPLICATION OF AEROVIAS DE MEXICO, S.A. DE C.V. FOR RENEWAL

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40109(c), Aerovias de Mexico, S.A. de C.V. ("Aeromexico") respectfully requests renewal , for an additional, one

- year period, of the exemption authority and special authorization granted in the
above

- captioned dockets by Notice of Ac tion Taken dated N ovember 18, 2013 (the “ Notice”) . Th e exemption authority permits Aeromexico to conduct scheduled foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail by displaying its "AM" designator code on flights operated by Endeavor Air, Inc., (" Endeavor”) : (1) between Atlanta, on the one hand, and Monterrey, Cozumel and Guadalajara, on the other; and (2) between Aeromexico's authorized U.S. gateway points and other points within the U.S. for the purp oses of blind

sector code

- sharing services between the U.S. gateway points and other U.S. points. The special authorization permits Aeromexico, pursuant to 14 C.F.R.- 2

- Aeromexico Renewal Application Part 216, to commingle blind

- sector, Mexico

- Canada traffic on the same
Endeavor

- operated services that carry Mexico

- U.S. and U.S.

- Canada traffic.
Aeromexico intends to invoke the automatic extension provisions of 5 U.S.C. § 558(c) and Part 377 of the Department's Special Regulations. In support of this application, Aeromexico states as follows:
1. Aero mexico is a flag carrier of the United Mexican States and currently holds a permit, Order 91

- 5

- 25, and various exemp tions which
authorize service between Mexico and numerous U.S. points. Pursuant to this authority, Aeromexico p rovides extensive transborder service.

2. By this application, Aeromexico seeks renewal of its exemption to

serve the transborder markets listed above, and U.S. and Canadian points beyo nd its authorized U.S. gateways, by displaying its AM* code on flights operated by Endeavor ; it also seeks renewal of the special authorization to commingle blind

- sector Mexico

- Canada traffic as noted above

. The authority is scheduled to expire on N ovember 18, 2014

. C ode

- sharing services on
Endeavor

- operated flights provide additional competition and service options
in U.S.

- Mexico markets, and Aeromexico therefore seeks to renew th e authority for an additional year.

3. Renewal of the exemption authority and special authorization is
consistent with the Air Transport Agreement, as amended in 1999 and 2005 , between the United Mexican States and the United States and with
