## BEFORE THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION WASHINGTON, D.C.
Application of South African Airways SOC Limited For a Statement of Authorization Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 212 (U.S.-South Africa Codesharing) Docket DOT-OST-2013-

Application of JetBlue Airways Corporation For an Exemption Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40109 Docket DOT-OST-2013-

APPLICATION OF SOUTH AFRICAN AIRWAYS SOC LIMITED FOR A STATEMENT OF AUTHORIZATION AND APPLICATION OF JETBLUE AIRWAYS CORPORATION FOR AN EXEMPTION JetBlue Airways Corporation (“JetBlue”)and South African Airways SOC Limited (“SAA”) entered into a Code Sharing Agreement (“Code Sharing Agreement”), dated July 16, 2013, contemplating that JetBlue will place its B6* designator code on certain SAA passenger flights between the United States and South Africa. The Department has previously approved JetBlue’s application to display SAA’s SA* designator code on certain JetBlue flights.1

## By entering the Code Sharing Agreement, SAA and JetBlue intend to expand that existing relationship. As a result, SAA hereby applies for the issuance of a statement of authorization to engage in codesharing services between the U.S. and South Africa via intermediate points, consistent with the terms of the 1996 U.S.-South Africa Air Transport Agreement (“U.S.-S.A.

## SeeDepartment Action on Application in Docket DOT-OST-2011-0017, as amended (Apr. 26, 2012).

## Agreement”), as described more fully below. Additionally, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40109, JetBlue requests an exemption from 49 U.S.C. § 41101 to facilitate the proposed codeshare services. SAA and JetBlue respectfully request that the Department award the requested authority promptly to facilitate marketing and advance sales of these new codeshare services. In that regard, SAA requests a waiver of the Department’s 45-day advance notice requirement in 14 C.F.R. § 212.10(d)(2) in order to effectuate this arrangement. In support of this Application, SAA and JetBlue state the following: 1. Pursuant to the Code Sharing Agreement, JetBlue and SAA plan to codeshare between certain points in the U.S. and points in South Africa via intermediate points.2

## A list of the initial codeshare routes is attached as Appendix A to the Code Sharing Agreement. JetBlue currently holds a blanket Statement of Authorization permitting JetBlue to display the SA* designator code of SAA on flights operated by JetBlue between any points in the United States and flights between SAA’s authorized U.S. gateways and points beyond the United States served by JetBlue.3

## SAA holds an exemption permitting it, among other things, to operate between SAA’s U.S. gateways and South Africa via intermediate points with local traffic rights as permissible under the U.S.-S.A. Agreement.4

## A copy of the Code Sharing Agreement is being submitted as Exhibit 1 to this Application with certain commercially sensitive and personal contact information redacted. Appendices B-D have been omitted because they are technical in nature. 3

## 2. SAA requests that the Department issue a statement of authorization pursuant to 14 C.F.R. Part 212 to permit SAA to display JetBlue’s B6* designator code on flights operated by SAA: (a) from SAA’s U.S. gateways to Johannesburg and beyond to points in South Africa, and (b) from SAA’s U.S. gateways to Dakar,Senegal as an intermediate point on SAA’s authorized U.S.-South Africa services. 3. To permit JetBlue to engage in these codesharing services, JetBlue requests exemption authority to hold out codeshare-only service: (a) between any point or points in the United States and Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, East London and Port Elizabeth, South Africa; and (b) between any point or points in the United States via the intermediate point Dakar, Senegal5

## and Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, East London and Port Elizabeth, South Africa. 4. The Department has already determined that JetBlue is well-qualified to operate and offer services comparable to those for which authority is requested by this application. JetBlue already holds certificate authority authorizing it to engage in scheduled combination interstate air transportation betweenany points in the United States (seeOrder 2000-2-7 (Feb. 4, 2000)) and scheduled combination foreign air transportation between the United States and any country with which the United States has an“open-skies” air transport agreement. SeeOrder 2007-7-3 (Jul. 10, 2007). JetBlue also holds certificate authority to serve Cancun, Mexico from New York/Newark, Boston, Ft. Lauderdale, Tampa, Orlando, and Washington. SeeOrder 2009- 9-4 (Sep. 9, 2009).

5

## JetBlue also will provide codeshare-only service between the United States and Senegal. Because Senegal is an Open Skies country, JetBlue already holds economic authority to provide service on this route due to the Blanket Open Skies authority granted to JetBlue by the Department in Order 2007-7-3 (Jul. 10, 2007).

### 4 

## 5. The Department has determined on numerousoccasions that SAA is fit to perform foreign air transportation between South Africa and the United States.6

## SAA currently holds exemption authority to engage in foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail between: a. Johannesburg and New York, New York via Ilha do Cal, Cape Verde; b. Johannesburg/Cape Town and Miami, Florida; c. Johannesburg and Los Angeles, California (and on this Los Angeles route, to commingle blind sector traffic not moving in foreign air transportation between Johannesburg and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil); d. Johannesburg/Cape Town and Atlanta, GA via Ilha do Sal, Cape Verde; e. Johannesburg/Cape Town and Washington, DC via Ilha do Sal, Cape Verde;7 

## f. SAA’s U.S. gateways and Dakar, Senegal, as an intermediate point on SAA’s authorized U.S.-South Africa services;8

## and g. SAA's U.S. gateways and South Af rica via intermediate points with local traffic rights as permissibleunder the U.S.-South Africa Agreement and via other intermediate points without local traffic rights.9

## The Department also has authorized SAA to(i) serve Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C. and Chicago on a co-terminal basis; (ii) serve 25 named U.S. points beyond its U.S. gateways on a code-share basis in conjunction with a U.S. partner; (iii) provide codesharing service beyond the U.S. to third countries on a blind-sector basis; and (iv) conduct foreign charter air transportation in accordance with Part 212 of the Department’s regulations.10 

## 6. Grant of the authority requested herein is consistent with U.S.-S.A. Agreement and therefore in the public interest. Pursuant to the U.S.-S.A. Agreement, “any designated airline of one Party may enter into cooperativemarketing arrangements such as block-space, code-sharing or leasing arrangements with... an airline or airlinesof either Party.” U.S.-S.A. Bilateral, Annex I, § 6. The agreement also authorizes U.S. carriers tooperate passenger and cargo combination services “[f]rom a point or points in United States via intermediate points to Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban, and (a)beyond to five code-share-only points within South Africa with an airline or airlines of South Africa without local traffic rights; and (b) to points beyond the South Africa on a blind-sector basis.” U.S.-S.A. Agreement, Annex I, § 1(A)(A)(1). The proposed code-share service from the United States to South Africa and beyond via Senegal also is consistentwith the “open-skies” Air Transport Agreement between the United States and the Republic of Senegal. SeeArticle 8, § 7 and Annex I, § 1(a)(1). These services will represent a valuable service enhancement for passengers traveling between the United States and South Africa.

## 7. Approval of this application is consistent with long-standing precedent and Department policy. The Department has consistently granted applications for Statements of Authorization involving implementation of various codeshare/block space arrangements where those arrangements were pro-competitive and in the public interest. This Application satisfies that standard, as it will enable SAA and JetBlueto offer the flying public an enhanced network and more services. In addition, the Department’s aviation policy statement confirms that codeshare arrangements are in the public interest: Code sharing and other cooperative market agreements can provide a cost efficient way for carriers to enter new markets, expand the system and obtain additional flow traffic to support their operations by using existing facilities and scheduled operations. 60 Fed. Reg. 21,841, 21,842 (May 3, 1995). 8. JetBlue and SAA will conduct their code-sharing activities in compliance with Part 257 of the Department’s economic regulations and any other applicable rules and regulations. JetBlue and SAA accept the Department’s standard conditions on code-sharing services. JetBlue and SAA agree to notify the Department no later than 30 days before commencing any codeshare services to non-open skies points and to inform the Department of the codeshare market(s) to be served and the date on which the services will begin. 9. JetBlue has conducted its review of the IATA Operational Safety Audit report of SAA and submitted the Compliance Statement to the FAA. The FAA has reviewed the audit report on SAA submitted by JetBlue. On May 31, 2013, the FAA concluded that the audit report was acceptable and decided not to interpose a safety-related objection. 10. SAA and JetBlue request that the Department approve this application in its entirety after the parties poll the individuals on the service list and no objections are noted. 11. This application will have no eff ect on JetBlue’s Civil Reserve Air Fleet
