American Airlines, Inc. et al., and The TACA Group Reciprocal Code-Share Services Proceeding
Order 98-5-26 | OST-96-1700 | Issued and Served May 20, 1998
By this Order, we grant final approval for the various applications of American Airlines, Inc. ("American") and Aviateca S.A. ("Aviateca"), Compañia Panameña de Aviación S. A. ("COPA"), Líneas Aéreas Costarricenses S.A. ("LACSA"), Nicaraguense de Aviación S.A. ("NICA"), TACA International Airlines S.A. ("TACA"), and TACA de Honduras S.A. (each individually a "TACA Group Affiliate Air Carrier," and hereafter collectively referred to as "the TACA Group") to the extent necessary to permit them to conduct reciprocal code-share services operated by these carriers for a period of two years, subject to conditions.
Subject to conditions and limitations, our action here will advance important public policy and consumer benefits. Our actions will permit the applicants to operate more efficiently and provide the U.S. traveling and shipping public with expanded networks and seamless service in the U.S.-Central America market. Moreover, with our proposed conditional approval to these U. S.-Central America markets, our action will be consistent with our open-skies negotiating policy and with our policy of facilitating codeshare networks, where those networks point the way potentially to lower costs and enhanced service for U.S. and international consumers.
