amendment to its foreign air carrier permit so that the authority 
granted by such permit will reflect the full extent of the rights of 
Community airlines under the Air Transport Agreement between the United 
States and the European Community and the Member States of the European 
Community specifically, TAP seeks blanket open skies authority to 
enable TAP to engage in: (i) Scheduled and charter foreign air 
transportation of persons, property and mail from any point or points 
behind any Member State of the European Union via any point or points 
in any Member State and via intermediate points to any point or points 
in the United States and beyond; (ii) scheduled and charter foreign air 
transportation of persons, property and mail between any point or 
points in any member of the European Common Aviation Area and any point 
or points in the United States; (iii) scheduled and charter all-cargo 
foreign air transportation between any point or points in the United 
States and any other point or points; (iv) other charters subject to 
the Department's regulations; (v) and transportation authorized by any 
additional route rights made available to European Community airlines 
in the future. TAP also requests exemption authority to the extent 
necessary to enable it to engage in the above described operations 
pending issuance of an amended foreign air carrier permit.
