Petition for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2020-0372.
    Petitioner: Airlines for America.
    Section(s) of 14 CFR Affected: Sec. Sec.  121.311(g), 121.333(f), 
121.391(d), and 121.573(a).
    Description of Relief Sought: The petitioner, Airlines for America, 
Inc. (A4A), on behalf of its member airlines petitions the Federal 
Aviation Administration (FAA) for an extension of Exemption No. 18522 
(Docket No. FAA-2020-0372) until September 30, 2020. This exemption is 
scheduled to expire on June 30, 2020. The relief granted by Exemption 
18522 has been in effect since April 08, 2020.
    Exemption 18522 provides relief, under certain conditions and 
limitations, from 14 CFR 121.311(g), 121.333(f), 121.391(d), and 
121.573(a) to the extent necessary to allow relief for flight 
attendants to relocate from the seats they would normally occupy in 
order to comply with recommendations from the World Health Organization 
(WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) concerning 
proximity to other people. In addition, this relief from certain 
requirements of the regulation concerning passenger briefings excuses 
crewmembers from demonstrating the use of oxygen dispensing equipment 
and donning and inflating a life preserver.
