ERRATUM

ORDER DISMISSING APPLICATIONS

The broad U.S.-Canada route authority referred to with respect to the applications described in Dockets OST-95-89 and OST-95-654 on page 5 of the Appendix was incorrectly listed as Route 633. The correct route number is Route 666. A corrected page 5 is attached.

OST-95-89 USAir, Inc., filed January 19, 1995. Certificate of public convenience and (50086) necessity to engage in scheduled foreign air transportation of persons,

property, and mail between Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Montreal, Canada. USAir was granted an exemption to serve the Pittsburgh-Montreal market through February 26, 1997. (See Order 96-4-20). By Order 95-6-26 the Department granted USAir a certificate of public convenience and necessity for broad U.S.-Canada authority (Route 666). By Order 97-7-2 the Department reissued USAir’s certificate for Route 666, among others, to reflect its new name, US Airways, Inc. Effective February 24, 1997, pursuant to the provisions of the U.S.-Canada aviation agreement, there are no restrictions on services to Montreal. Since the authority to serve Pittsburgh-Montreal is no longer restricted and is encompassed by its authority on Route 666, US Airways’ certificate application in Docket OST-95-89 is moot.

 

OST-95-654 USAir, Inc., filed April 21, 1993. Amend certificate of public (48763) convenience and necessity to add Pittsburgh as an intermediate point on its

Cleveland-Montreal route. By Order 95-6-26 the Department granted US Air a certificate authorizing broad U.S.-Canada operations, subject to certain time-limited restrictions on services in the U.S.-Montreal/Vancouver/Toronto markets (Route 666). By Order 97-7-2 the Department reissued USAir’s certificate for Route 666, among others, to reflect its new name, US Airways, Inc. Effective February 24, 1997, pursuant to the provisions 1995 U.S.-Canada aviation agreement, there are no restrictions on services to Montreal. Since service in the U.S.-Montreal market is no longer restricted, the Cleveland-Montreal authority is encompassed by its authority on Route 666. USAir’s certificate application in Docket OST-95-654, therefore, is moot.
