APPLICATION OF COMPASS AIRLINES, LLC

FOR RENEWAL OF EXEMPTION AUTHORITY

Compass Airlines, LLC (“Compass”), pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40109 and 14 C.F.R. Part 

377, hereby requests renewal of (1) its Atlanta – Monterrey, Mexico exemption, and (2) its 

Detroit – Monterrey, Mexico exemption. These authorities enable Compass to offer scheduled 

foreign air transportation of persons, property, and mail on the subject routes. Compass requests 

renewal of its exemptions for a period of at least two years.

The relief requested by Compass is in the public interest for the same reasons that 

supported the issuance of the original exemption authority. In filing this application for renewal, 

Compass invokes the automatic extension provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 

U.S.C. 558(c), as implemented by 14 C.F.R. Part 377. Compass’ renewal application is timely 

filed pursuant to 14 C.F.R. 377.10(c).
