Re: Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel; Spirit Airlines, Inc. Request for Conflict of Laws Waiver (Docket DOT

- OST

-2008

-0272)

Dear Mr. Podberesky :
Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 382.9, Spirit Airlines, Inc. requests a waiver of the Department's regulations governing nondiscrimination on the basis of disability (14 C.F.R. Part 382) to the
extent necessary to relieve Spirit of any requirement to transport service animals on flights from the United States to Jamaica.

Spirit operates flights between Detroit, Michigan and Kingston, Jamaica and between Fort Lauderdale, Florida and Kingston and Montego Bay, Jamaica. As explained in the attached

conflict of laws waiver request submitted by Airlines for America on March 28, 2013, Jamaican law prohibits the importation of dogs, cats, and monkeys directly from the United States. Thus, Jamaican law directly conflicts with § 382 .117 of the Department's regulations, which requires U.S. and foreign air carriers to permit a service animal to accompany a passenger with a disability

. In support of this request, Spirit incorporates by reference all relevant information and assertions contained in the attached A4A request. Spirit asks the Department to provide it with a waiver from the requirements of §382.117 and any other section of Part 382 to the same extent provided to A4A passenger carrying member airlines in response to the A4A request

. Please contact us if you need further information regarding this request. Respectfully submitted

Re: Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel; Airlines of America Request for Conflict of Laws Waiver (Docket DOT

Dear Mr. Podberesky:
Pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 382.9, Airlines for America (A4A) requests a waiver of the Department's regulations governing nondiscrimination on the basis of disability (14 C.F.R. Part 382) to the extent that A4A passenger

-carrying members would be required to transport certain service animals on flights from the United States or Canada to Jamaica or Barbados. As explained below, Jamaican and Barbadian laws prohibit the importation of dogs, cats, (and monkeys to Jamaica), directly from the United States and Canada . Thus, these foreign laws directly conflict with Part 382 of the Department's regulation s, which, effective May 13, 2009 , required U.S. air carriers to transport service animals under Part 382 and foreign carriers to transport service dogs . Accordingly, A4A on behalf of its passenger

-carrying members is requesting a conflict of law waiver pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 382.9 fro m the requirement that carriers must permit certain service animals to accompany passengers with a disability on flights from the United States or Canada to Jamaica or to Barbados.
In support of this conflict of laws waiver request, A4A states as follows:

American Airlines, Delta Airlines, JetBlue Airways, Southwest Airlines, United Continental Holdings, and US Airways all provide service to Jamaican airports from the U.S. American Airlines, JetBlue Airways, and US Airways provide service to Barbados from the U.S. Air Canada provides service from Canada to Jamaica and Barbados. Appendix A lists the carriers with origins and destinations in the U.S.

, Canada, Jamaica , and Barbados

. The Department's Final Rule on Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel, published May 13, 2008, applied Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA) regulatory amendments to domestic carriers and all ACAA regulations to foreign carriers with an effective date of May 13, 2009. 73 Fed. Reg. 27614 (Docket DOT

- OST

-2004

- 19482) (the "Final Rule"), as corrected on March 18, 2009 (74 Fed. Reg. 11469). The Final Rule requires, among other things that with respect to passenger flights that begin or end at U.S. airports, domestic and foreign air carriers permit service animals to accompany passengers who are qualified individuals with a disability. 14 C.F.R. § 382.117. However, foreign air carriers are not required to transport service animals other than dogs. Id. § 382. 117(f).Mr. Samuel Podberesky

March 28, 2013 Page 2

T he laws of at least two foreign nations A4A members serve directly from the United States (and directl y from Canada for Air Canada ) conflict with the requirements of 14 C.F.R. § 382.117:
(1) Jamaica. The Animals Diseases (Importation) Control Regulations (JADICR), 1948 (attached hereto as Appendix B), strictly prohibit the importation of dogs and cats to Jamaica from countries other than Great Britain, Northern Ireland, and Eire (Ireland) (with no special exceptions for service animals). Specifically, Regulation 10 states, "No dog or cat sh all be imported into the Island unless such dog or cat is imported directly from one of the countries specified in Part I of the First Schedule." Part I of the First Schedule lists Great Britain, Northern Ireland, and Eire.

In addition, the JADICR also strictly prohibits the importation of monkeys. Regulation 14 states, “No monkey shall be imported into the Island.”
Finally, in addition to the above prohibitions Jamaica has a series of requirements that do not outright ban animals/service animals but requ ire passengers to take certain steps to import an animal and the Department should recognize that these additional steps conflict with § 382.117. These conflicts include:

 No animal shall be imported into the Island except in accordance with the terms of a permit granted by the Director of Veterinary Services. JADICR, Regulation 4

 No animal shall be landed at any port other Kingston or at any aerodrome other than the Normal Manley International Airport, unless the Director of Veterinary Services grants a pe rmit authorizing a landing at another facility. JADICR, Regulation 5.

 Animals landing in Jamaica are subject to quarantine. JADICR, Regulation 7.

 Horses must have a certificate that includes five categories of information. JADICR, Regulation 11.

 Pigs, sheep, and goats must include certificates issued by specific foreign government agencies that the animal is free from communicable disease. JADICR, Regulation 12.

A4A requests the Department recognize that airlines will have no choice but to require that passengers comply with these Jamaican regulations in regards to service animals other than dogs, cats, and monkeys and if a passenger does not comply, the airline will have to refuse to carry the animal.
(2) Barbados. The Animals (Diseases and Importation Control) Regulations (BADICR), 1961 (attached hereto as Appendix C), strictly prohibit the importation of dogs and cats to Barbados from countries other than Antigua & Barbuda, Australia, Great Britain, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Jamaica, New Zealan d, St. Kitts & Nevis, St. Lucia, and St. Vincent (with no special exceptions for service animals ). Specifically, BADICR Regulation 11 states, "No dog or cat shall be imported into the Island except directly from the countries specified in the Third Schedul e to these regulations."

Like Jamaica, Barbados also has a series of requirements that passengers would have to comply with to import animals other than dogs and cats. The Department should recognize that these additional steps conflict with § 382.117. These conflicts include:

 No animal shall be imported into Barbados except in accordance with the terms of a permit granted by the Senior Veterinary Officer. BADICR, Regulation 3(2)

 No animal should be landed at any port in Barbados other than Bridgetown or Seawell Airport; but the Senior Veterinary Officer may in his absolute discretion grant a permit i n writing for an animal to be landed at such other port and upon such conditions as may be specified in such permit. BADICR Regulation 4

.

 Animals landing in Barbados are subject to quarantine. BADICR, Regulation 8(1)Mr. Samuel Podberesky

March 28, 2013 Page 3

 Horses must have a certificate that in cludes five categories of information. BADICR, Regulation 12(3).

 Pigs, sheep, and goats must include certificates that include information about the animal and the country from which the animal was exported. BADICR, Regulation 13.

 No monkey shall be imported into Barbados except in accordance with the terms of a permit granted by the Senior Veterinary Officer. BADICR, Regulation 14.

 Poultry must obtain a permit granted by the Senior Veterinary Officer to be imported. BADICR, Regulation 15.

A4A requests that the Department recognize that airlines will have no choice but to require that passengers comply with these Barbados regulations in regards to service animals other than dogs and cats, and if a passenger does not comply, the airline will have to refuse to carry the animal.
To address inevitable conflicts between the requirements or prohibitions of Part 382 and those of the laws, regulations, and other legally

- binding rules of foreign authorities, the Department established the mechanisms of § 382.9, whereby a U.S., foreign carrier or trade association may submit a request for a waiver of specific provisions of Part 382 if such provisions conflict with a binding obligation under foreign law. The identified animal importation control regulations of Jamaica and Barbados are "legally binding foreign legal mandates" (73 Fed. Reg. at 27646), which apply to all air carriers and passengers traveling to Jamaica and Barbados. These regulations directly conflict with the requirements of Part 382: If, on the one hand, A4A members were to transport certain service animals on a flight from the United States to Jamaica or Barbados, such transportation would violate Jamaican or Barbadian law, respectively; if, on the other hand, Airlines were to refuse to transport certain service animals accompanying a qualified individual with a disability, such refusal would violate the requirements of 14 C.F.R. § 382.117. There is absolutely no action that A4A members could take pursuant to Jamaican or Barbadian laws that would enable the carriers to legally transport passengers' service dog, cat, or monkey from the United States to a Jamaican airport (or service dog from Canada) or a service dog or cat from the United States to a Barbados airport (or service dog from Canada) . Consequently, a conflict of laws waiver is required.
The direct conflicts between Jamaican and Barbadian animal importation laws, on the one hand, and the service animal transportation requirements of Part 382, on the other hand, are precisely the types of circumstances the Department intended the conflict of laws waiver mechanisms to address, in that each foreign regulation "prohibits [airlines] from doing something required by [Part 382]" and "as a legal matter, [an airline] has no choice but to act contrary to [Part 382]." 73 Fed. Reg. 27646

-27647. In fact , in the preamble to the Final Rule, the Department specifically acknowledged that the animal quarantine rules of some foreign nations created situations that would require conflict of laws waivers to resolve: “ [S]ome commenters mentioned that some countri es have quarantine rules that severely delay or limit the entrance of certain animals, or effectively prohibit certain animals

--even service animals

-from entering those countries. The Department agrees that, if Country S prohibits a certain kind of animal from entering, an airline serving an airport in Country S could apply for a conflict of laws waiver to be relieved from carrying such an animal to that country. Such a waiver would be country

-specific ... ” 73 Fed. Reg. at 27635.
A4A is requesting the exact type of country

-specific waivers relating to the transportation of service animals that the Department contemplated in the preamble to the Final Rule.
As a practical matter, the animal importation laws of Jamaica and Barbados completely preclude the transportation of service dogs, cats (and in regard to Jamaica, monkeys) directly from the United States to these countries (and service dogs from Canada) . Consequently, with respect to flights from U.S. or Canadian points to airports in Jamaica and Barbados, there are no alternative means airline s could use, if the conflict of laws waiver is not granted, to achieve the objectives of § 382.117. However, assuming the waiver is granted, airlines would otherwise comply with the requirements of § 382.117 to the maximum extent possible, including the transportation of service animals from Jamaica and Barbados to the United States or to Canada , and between the United States and countries that do not impose prohibitive animalMr. Samuel Podberesky

March 28, 2013 Page 4

importation or quarantine rules. Airlines would also adhere to the written explanation require ments of § 382.117(g) with respect to passengers' service animals that are not accepted for transportation from the United States to Jamaica or Barbados.
In conclusion, for the reasons stated above, A4A, pursuant to 14 C.F.R. § 382.9, hereby requests a
conflict of laws waiver, whereby A4A passenger carrying members would not be required to comply with 14 C.F.R. § 382.117 or any other section of Part 382 requiring the transportation of service animals, with respect to flights from the United States to Jamaica and to Barbados

. Additionally we request a conflict of law waiver, whereby Air Canada would not be required to comply with 14 C.F.R. § 382.117 or any other section of Part 382 requiring the transportation of service dogs with respect to flights from Canada to Jamaica or Barbados . The requested waiver is required based on direct conflicts with specific, binding prohibitions of Jamaican and Barbadian laws.
