immediately, and the filing of a petition for review will not alter its effectiveness. 

We may amend, modify, or revoke the authority granted at any time, without hearing, at our discretion. 

*The authority granted is subject to the attached conditions. 

1 Insel Aruba states that on flights it operates displaying the (71*) designator code of Insel Air in the Aruba-Miami market, the Insel 

Air traffic will either begin or end in Curacao. 
The code-share operations authorized here are subject to the following conditions: 

(a) The statement of authorization will remain in effect only as long as (i) Insel Aruba and Insel Air 

continue to hold the necessary underlying authority to operate the code-share services at issue, and (ii) 

the code-share agreement providing for the code-share operations remains in effect. 

(b) Insel Aruba and/or Insel Air must promptly notify the Department if the code-share 

agreement providing for the code-share operations is no longer effective or the carriers decide to 

cease operating any or all of the approved code-share services. We expect this notification to be 

received within 10 days of such non-effectiveness or of such decision. Such notices should be 

filed in docket DOT-OST-2013-0035. 

(c) The code-sharing operations conducted under this authority must comply with 14 CFR 257 and with 

any amendments to the Department's regulations concerning code-share arrangements that may be 

adopted. Notwithstanding any provisions in the contract between the carriers, our approval here is 

expressly conditioned upon the requirements that the subject foreign air transportation be sold in the 

name of the carrier holding out such service in the computer reservation systems and elsewhere; that the 

carrier selling such transportation (i.e., the carrier shown on the ticket) accept responsibility for the 

entirety of the code-share journey for all obligations established in its contract of carriage with the 

passenger; and that the passenger liability of the operating carrier be unaffected. 

(d) The authority granted here is specifically conditioned so that neither Insel Aruba nor Insel Air shall 

give any force or effect to any contractual provisions between themselves that are contrary to these 

conditions. 

(e) We may amend, modify, or revoke the authority granted at any time without hearing at our 

discretion.
