Transaero states as follows in support of its renewal application:

1. Transaero’s exemption authority for Moscow

- Houston codesharing with SIA was

originally granted by Notice of Action Taken dated July 8, 2011

, and was most recently renewed

by Notice of Action Taken dated July 1 0

, 2013

, in this docket. Absent renewal, Transaero’s

exemption authority will expire on July 10, 2014

.

2. Renewal of Transaero’s exemption authority will permit it to continue providing

significant benefits to passengers traveling in these market s , stimulating demand, increasing

competition and enhancing consumer convenience by offering single

- carrier reservations and

ti cketing. Renewal is also consistent with the Multilateral Agreement on the Liberalization of

International Air Transport (MALIAT), the Annexes to the 1994 U.S.

- Russian Federation Air

Transport Agreement (as amended by the F ebruary 1 3

, 2009 U.S.

Russian Federation. 2

3. Transaero holds a foreign air carrier permit authorizing it to engage in scheduled

foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail from any point or points behind the

Russian Federation, via any point or points in the Russian Federation and intermediate points, to
