FORA 

STATEMENT OF AUTHORIZATION 

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40109, Subpart C of the Department's Rules ofPractice and 14 

C.P.R. Part 212 of the Department's regulations, EVA Airways Corporation ("EVA") hereby 

applies for the necessary authority to engage in services with Singapore Airlines Limited ("SIA'') 

as further described herein. 

In support of this application, EVA states as follows: 

1. EVA and SIA have entered into an agreement pursuant to which EVA intends to 

display SIA's "SQ" airline designator code on passenger services on flights operated by EVA 

between Taiwan and the United States, as further described in Exhibit A hereto. These flights 

will operate using EVA's B777 aircraft. 

2. EVA and SIA plan to commence these codeshare services on December 1, 2014. 

3. Accordingly, EVA requests a Part 212 statement of authorization to display the 

"SQ*" designator code on its transpacific flights operating between Taiwan and the United 
transportation of persons, property and mail serving points behind Taiwan, via Taiwan and 

intermediate points, and any point or points in the United States, and beyond. Order 98-2-30. 

SIA's foreign air carrier permit provides, inter alia, that SIA is entitled to engage in scheduled 

foreign air transportation of persons, property and mail "from points behind Singapore, via 

Singapore and intermediate points, to a point or points in the United States, and beyond." Order 

97-12-26. 

5. EVA and SIA's proposed arrangement is fully consistent with the applicable air 

service agreements. Article 8, section 7 of the open skies agreement dated March 18, 1998 

between the American Institute in Taiwan and the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative 

Office authorizes airlines of Taiwan and the United States to engage in codeshare operations 

with third-country carriers. Similarly, Article 8, section 7 of the U.S.-Singapore Air Transport 

Agreement provides for cooperative marketing agreements with airlines of a third country. 

6. The services for which EVA seeks a statement of authorization are in the public 

interest. The code share arrangement between EVA and SIA will provide additional online 

options for the traveling public enhancing the ability of both parties to compete in transpacific 

markets. 

7. No energy statement is necessary as the proposed services will not result in a 

near-term increase in fuel consumption often million gallons or more. 
the service accept responsibility for its passenger in accordance with the terms of its contract of 

carriage and (iii) the requirements of Part 257 of the Department's regulations that reasonable 

and timely notice of codeshare arrangements be made to actual and prospective passengers. 

9. Pursuant to the Department's Notice in the Matter of Blanket Notification of 

Codeshare Service to Open-Skies Partners and Points, dated February 9, 2009, EVA hereby 

provides blanket notification of its intent to engage in codeshare service to open skies points as 

described above. EVA agrees to notify the Department no later than 30 days before commencing 

any codeshare service to non-open skies points. 

10. EVA respectfully requests a waiver of the provision that requires carriers to file 

requests for statements of authorization at least 45 days in advance of their proposed start-up 

date. EVA also requests that the statement of authorization requested herein be issued for an 

indefinite period, consistent with the Department's practice. 
deem appropriate.
