Agreement: PTC12 via 3 Memo 0001 / 22 April 2013NOTICE OF TIER 2 AGREEMENTS FILING

Pursuant to statements submitted by Member airlines of the International Air Transport

Association (IATA), the undersigned has been constituted to be their attorney

‐ in

‐ fact for filing

with the Department of Transportation copies of agreements adopted by the IATA Traffic

Conferences.

On their behalf, and pursuant to the procedures specified in Order 2012

‐ 4

‐ 18 (13 April

2012), I am filing with the Department in the second tier of agreements, this Notice, subject

agreement and supporting documentation. This agreement is part of the subject areas which

the Department has indicated that it still chooses to review on a case

‐ to

‐ case basis before

implementation, as it includes IATA’s adopted Flex Fares touching US markets. The subject

agreements are IATA Resolutions that together establish the procedures for establishing

passenger Flex Fares on routes between TC12 via TC3 with the same provisions as those applied

for Area TC123. For this purpose, governing Resolution 111pa, 046pa (business/intermediate

class), 056pa (first class) and 066pa (economy class) have been adopted with conditions clearly

identified and described in the attached documentation for each affected Resolution.

What is submitted for review and exemption is a process and algorithm for defining fully

flexible fare products for classes of service mentioned for certain routes within the markets.

IATA requests further expansion of the exemptions granted by Order 2012
