Atlas Air, Inc. and U.S.- Brazil All Cargo Frequencies and Designation

Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. §40109(c), Atlas Air, Inc. requests: (1) an emergency exemption to provide foreign scheduled air transportation of property and mail between Miami, on the one hand, and Manaus, Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, on the other, via points in South America and beyond Brazil to such points, on a pendente lite basis until issuance of a final order in the U.S. -Brazil All-Cargo case; (2) the temporary assignment of ten weekly frequencies for its services; and (3) prompt transmittal, through diplomatic channels, of a formal U.S. government note designating Atlas as the fourth U.S. scheduled all-cargo airline to serve Brazil. To accommodate the need for quick relief, Atlas also asks that the Department establish Wednesday, April 4, as the due date for answers to this application.

Atlas Air, Inc. and U.S.- Brazil All Cargo Frequencies and Designation

Neither of the other two applicants for permanent U.S. -Brazil scheduled cargo authority has objected to Atlas' March 30 application for an emergency Brazil exemption and related relief. As explained in the application, there are compelling reasons for the Department to award Atlas the requested pendente lite authority, a step necessary to enable Atlas to start the authorization process in Brazil, secure a temporary Brazilian license and commence scheduled service. The Department thus should grant the Atlas application as soon as possible -- but without imposing the unacceptable "charter" condition suggested by Gemini.
