, Republic Airline Inc. d/b/a Republic Airlines (“ Republic ”) , a U.S. certificated

air carrier

, 1 requested that the Department register the trade name “ American Eagle ” for use in

certain of its air transportation operations.

The applicant state s that it recently entered into a Capacity Purchase Agreement with American

Airlines, Inc. (“American”)

, under which it will conduct certain operations using the “ American

Eagle ” trade name on behalf of American. Republic states that the marketing air carrier will

make all required disclosures of the identity of the operating air carrier in accordance with the

provisions of Part 257 of the Department’s regulations (14 CFR Part 257). In addition, Republic

states that airc raft operated under the “ American Eagle ” trade name will clearly identify the

name of the operating carrier.

Part 215 of the Department’s regulations (14 CFR Part 215) provides that any air carrier wishing

to use an alternative trade name must first regis ter that name with the Department. The rule

further states that the Department may register such name after the air carrier gives notification

to similarly named air carriers of the proposed use of the name. In this case, we identified no

other air carri ers using a similar name other than the code share partners of American and its

subsidiary, American Eagle Airlines, Inc. (“American Eagle”), who have previously been

authorized use of the “American Eagle” trade name. Moreover, Republic states that Americ an

and its affiliate American Eagle are aware of and consent to Republic’s registration of the

“American Eagle” trade name

.

Under these circumstances , we acknowledge the registration of the trade name “ American

Eagle” by Republic for immediate use in th eir operations.
