Pursuantto 49 U.S.C. §40109 and Subpart C ofthe Department's Rules of Practice, Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos, S.A. de C.V. hereby applies for renewal of its exemption from 49 U.S.C. §41301, which authorizes Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos to engage in charterforeign air transportation of passengers between Mexico and the United States, and other passenger charteroperations in accordance with 14 C.F.R. Part 212, using small aircraft. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos also requests renewal ofits stopover privileges and continued relieffrom the Department's requirementto provide advance notice ofeach flight, orseries offlights, between Mexico and the United States.AEROSERVICIOS EJECUTIVOS CORPORATIVOS, S.A. de C.V. RENEWAL OF EXEMPTION Page 2

The Department granted the above authorityto Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos pursuantto a Notice ofAction Taken dated April 26, 2013. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos requests thatthe Department
renewthis authority, which is scheduled to expire April 26, 2015, for a period ofat leasttwo years.

Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos invokesthe automatic extension provisions ofthe Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. §558(c), as implemented by 14 C.F.R. Part 377, to maintain its exemption authority in effect pending a final Departmentdetermination on this renewal application.

In support ofthis application, Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos states as follows:

1. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos continues to be financially fit, and is willing and able to provide charter passengerservices using small aircraft. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos reports thatthere have been
no changes in ownership, corporate address, or key personnel during the past two years. There have, however, been changes in aircraft and aircraft liability insurance coverage. See ExhibitA. With the exception ofthese changes, Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos herebyvalidates and resubmits by reference information it previously submitted in DOT Docket OST-1997-2878.AEROSERVICIOS EJECUTIVOS CORPORATIVOS, S.A. de C.V. RENEWAL OF EXEMPTION
2. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos' Mexican authorityto Page 3

engage in transborder charter passengerservices remains in full force and effect, as does its U.S. authority pursuantto the company's Part 129 Operations Specifications from the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA").11 See Exhibit Bfor a copy ofAeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos' currentAir Operator's Certificate ("AOC") from the Direcci6n General de Aeronautica Civil in Mexico.

3. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos' Third and Fourth Freedom charter authorities are consistentwith Annex II to the U.S.-Mexico AirTransportAgreement and are, therefore, presumptively in the public interest. The Department's grants to Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos of stopover privileges and relieffrom the advance notice requirement for MexicoU.S. transborder charterflights are based on principles ofcomity and reciprocity and on public interest grounds, since Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos will be conducting its charter operations solelywith small aircraft. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos submitsthat continuation ofthese extra-bilateral authorizations is warranted, given the harmonious state of aviation relations between Mexico and the United States.

The services provided byAeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos satisfy a continuing commercial need. Theyfoster business activities and economic

Y Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos has held Part 129 Operations Specificationsfrom the FAA International Field Office in Dallas/FortWorth since February 24, 1998 under Certificate Number EJ8F788F. The company's only aircraft, a Gulfstream G550, is configured for 10 passengerseats.AEROSERVICIOS EJECUTIVOS CORPORATIVOS, S.A. de C.V. RENEWAL OF EXEMPTION Page 4 opportunities between Mexico and the United States and therebyfurtherthe objectives ofthe North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). Accordingly, renewal ofall elements ofAeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos' authoritywould be in the public interest.

4. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos' renewal application is limited in scope and is non-controversial. Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos' proposed airtransportation services are unchanged from those it performed between Mexico and the United States during the pasttwo years, 

### i.e., customized transport services for executives and their guests using small executivejet aircraft. WHEREFORE, Aeroservicios Ejecutivos Corporativos, S.A. de C.V. respectfully requests renewal of its authorityto engage in charterforeign air transportation of passengers between Mexico and the United States using small aircraft, as setforth herein, and such other relief as may be in the public interest. Respectfully submitted,
