NOTICE OF ADDITIONAL CODE-SHARING AND REQUEST FOR WAIVER

Pursuant to the blanket statement ofauthorization granted in the above-captioned docket, Virgin America Inc. ("Virgin America") herebynotifies the Department that, on or about May 23, 2014, Virgin America plans to display the "SQ" designator code ofSingapore Airlines Ltd. ("Singapore Airlines") on flights operatedbyVirgin America between (i) Los Angeles ("LAX") and Dallas Love Field ("DAL"), and (ii) San Francisco ("SFO") and DAL, in conjunction with Singapore Airlines' scheduled Singapore-U.S. services in foreign air transportation (either nonstop or via third-country intermediate points). Virgin America plans to commence these LAXDAL and SFO-DAL flights, and discontinue all scheduled service it operates at Dallas/Fort Worth ("DFW"), including LAX-DFW and SFO-DFW code-share services that display the SQ designator code, effective October 13, 2014. To the extent necessary, Virgin America requests a waiver ofthe 30-daynotice condition imposed under the existing blanket statement ofauthorization in order to minimize any disruption to code-share operations in connection with the airline's relocation offlights from

1DFW to DAL. Consistent with such waivers previously granted bythe Department, 1 Virgin America will poll the U.S. carrier representatives served with this notice and waiver request and advise the Department ofthe pollingresults.
