§ 202.11 Nonstop authorization.

Subject to the provisions of section 405(b) of the Act, the holder of a certificate may inaugurate scheduled nonstop service between any two points not consecutively named in its certificate or approved service plan (if such certificate or approved service plan authorizes service between such points and does not prohibit nonstop service between them) upon the effective date of a schedule, showing such nonstop service, filed with the Board in accordance with Part 231 of this subchapter.

§ 202.12 Provisions as to scheduled stops-interstate and overseas air transportation.

(a) With respect to any flight scheduled to carry passengers in interstate or overseas air transportation, a stop at a point within the continental United States shall not be scheduled to exceed 45 minutes, if the origination or termination of such flight at such point is prohibited by any restriction in the certificate: Provided, That where the scheduled stop is at a point which is specified as a "large hub" city in the most recent edition of "Airport Activity Statistics of Certificated Route Carriers," the scheduled stop shall not be scheduled to exceed one hour.

(b) With respect to any flight scheduled to carry only property or mail in interstate or overseas air transportation, a stop at a point within the continental United States shall not be scheduled to exceed two hours, if the origination or termination of such flight at such point is prohibited by any restriction in the certificate.

(c) With respect to interstate or overseas air transportation, a certificate containing a condition or restriction which has the effect of permitting the origination of a flight only at a certain point or points shall not be deemed to permit an increase in passenger or property-carrying capacity (by change of gauge, substitution of equipment, addition of extra sections, or otherwise) on any such flight

at any point other than a point at which the origination of such flight is authorized. A certificate containing a condition or restriction which has the effect of permitting the termination of a flight only at a certain point or points shall not be deemed to permit a decrease in passenger or property-carrying capacity on any such flight at any point other than a point at which the termination of such flight is authorized. With respect to a particular flight, a point shall not be deemed to be beyond another specified point within the meaning of such condition or restriction unless the holder serves such other specified point on such flight or omits service thereto pursuant to regulation or other specific authorization (such as authority to render nonstop service, or to suspend service to such point) of the Board.

§ 202.13 Airport Notice; application for permission to use an airport; automatic revocation and Termination of Service Notice; Airport Noticeforeign air transportation-change required by foreign country.

(a) Airport Notice. An Airport Notice is required to be filed with the Board if the holder of a certificate desires to serve regularly a point named in such certificate, or a point which the holder is otherwise authorized to serve regularly, through an airport not then regularly used or authorized to be used by the holder to serve such point: Provided, however, That if the holder of a certificate desires to serve a point through an airport through which it already serves another point on its route, and to retain both points in its certificate, the holder is required to file with the Board an Application for Permission to Use an Airport (see §202.13(b)); and such holder shall not file an Airport Notice. Airport Notices and Applications for Permission to Use an Airport are not required of Alaskan air carriers, holders of certificates authorizing use of rotary wing aircraft only, and holders of certificates limited to communi. ty center service and interairport service. When an Airport Notice is required hereunder, the certificate holder shall file it with the Board at least 30 days prior to the proposed date of inauguration of the use of the airport. Such notice shall be conspicuously entitled Airport Notice; shall, as a minimum amount of information, describe such airport by name and, if it is not an airport already being used by an air carrier subject to the provisions of this part, state its location; shall state the date of intended inauguration of service and whether a waiver of the 30-day notice provision is requested; and shall contain a notice to the persons served that they may, within 15 days of the date the notice was filed, file and serve memoranda in support of, or in opposition to, the notice. A recommended format of Airport Notice is set forth in Appendix A. The use of Buch airport may be inaugurated 30 days after the filing of such notice, unless the Board

notifies the holder within said 30-day period that it appears to the Board that such use may adversely affect the public interest, in which event such use shall not thereafter be inaugurated (except as may be expressly permitted by such notification from the Board) unless and until the Board finds upon application filed by the holder, pursuant to paragraph (b) of this section, that the public interest would not be adversely affected by such use. The Board may permit the use of an airport at any time after the filing of the Airport Notice whenever the circumstances warrant such action. In no event shall the provisions of this section be construed as authorizing an air carrier to receive at one airport and discharge at any other airport serving the same point passengers or property moving locally between the two airports, or passengers or property moving as part of a through journey to or from some other point which such carrier receives from, or transfers to, another air carrier at one of the two airports. This prohibition does not apply to the carriage between airports of through traffic which the air carrier performing the interairport service receives from, or transfers to, one of its own flights.

(b) Application for permission to use an airport. (1) Where an air carrier seeks to serve a point through an airport through which it already serves another point on its route and to retain both points in its certificate, it shall file with the Board an Application for Permission to Use an Airport.

(2) Following notification by the Board that the use of an airport proposed in an Airport Notice filed pursuant to § 202.13(a) may adversely affect the public interest, the air carrier may file an Application for Permission to Use an Airport.

----

An application filed pursuant to either subparagraph (1) or (2) of this paragraph shall be conspicuously entitled "Application for Permission to Use the Airport for Serving---" and shall set forth the information required in the Airport Notice as well as any other facts relied upon to establish that the proposed airport use is in the public interest, a statement of economic data or other matters which it is desired that the Board oficially notice, and shall contain a notice to the persons served that they may, within 20 days of the date the application was fled, Ale and serve memoranda in support of, or in opposition to, the application.

(c) Automatic revocation and Termination of Service Notice. (1) Where a certificate holder has been authorized to serve a point located in the United States regularly through two or more airports, failure to provide regularly scheduled air transportation through one of those airports for 60 days shall automatically revoke any authorization to regularly use that airport. Regular service through the airport may be resumed only upon compliance with and pursuant to the procedures set forth in paragraph (a) of this section: Provided, however, That the following shall not be included in the 60-day period: (1) Nonuse of an airport for any period in which regularly scheduled service is offered through

the airport on a flag-stop basis; and (ii) periods during which a carrier has failed to regularly use an airport as a result of any of the conditions listed in § 205.8(a) of this subchapter.

(2) A carrier's suspension of service to a point located in the United States for one year, pursuant to a provision in its certificate or pursuant to Board order or exemption, shall revoke any authorization to use an airport to serve that point. Regular service through the airport may be resumed only upon compliance with and pursuant to the procedures set forth in paragraph (a) of this section.

(3) Within 30 days after the day a carrier's airport authorization is automatically revoked by the terms of this section, the carrier shall file with the Board a notice conspicuously entitled Termination of Service Notice, setting forth, as a minimum amount of information, the name of the airport and date of cessation of regular service. A recommended format of the Termination of Service Notice is set forth in Appendix B to this part.

(d) Airport Notice-foreign air transportation-change required by foreign country. (1) If at any time the holder of a certificate is required, in order to comply with any obligation, duty, or liability imposed by any foreign country, to serve regularly a point or points in such foreign country through any airport not then regularly used by such holder, such holder shall file with the Board notice of such requirement: Provided, however, That this paragraph shall not apply to any obligation, duty or liability arising out of a contract or other agreement entered into between any air carrier or any officer or representative thereof, and any foreign country, if such contract or agreement shall have been disapproved by the Board as being contrary to the public interest.

(2) Such notice shall be filed within 20 days after the air carrier shall have been advised of such requirement; shall be conspicuously entitled Airport Notice-Foreign

Air TransportationChange Required by Foreign Country; and shall fully set forth the facts and circumstances relating to such requirement. The use of such airport may be inaugurated immediately upon the filing of such notice and may be continued unless and until the Board, after notice and public hearing, shall disapprove the use of such airport as being contrary to the public interest, or unless and until the Board shall find, after investigation, that such requirement of the foreign country is not in effect.

§ 202.14 Application for change in serv. ice pattern-interstate and overseas air transportation.

(a) Applicability. This section shall be applicable only to certificates authorizing interstate and/or overseas air transportation which contain a condition requiring that each trip operated by the holder of the certificate between points named in the route or a segment thereof shall (subject to exceptions set forth in such certificate) serve each terminal and intermediate point.

(b) Application for change in service pattern. If at any time the holder of such a certificate desires to establish a service pattern omitting one or more of the points served or required to be served pursuant to such condition of the certificate, the holder shall make application to the Board for approval thereof. Such application shall be conspicuously ice Pattern, and shall set forth the facts entitled Application for Change in Servrelied upon to establish that the proposed service pattern is in the public interest and consistent with the holder's performance of a local air transportation service.
