Notice of Submission Deadline for International Slots for the
Summer 2006 Scheduling Season

AGENCY: Department of Transportation, FAA.

ACTION: Notice of submission deadline.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On October 1, 1999, the FAA amended the regulations governing
takeoff and landing slots and slot allocation procedures at certain
High Density Traffic Airports as a result of the ``Open Transborder''
Agreement between the Government of the United States and the
Government of Canada. One element of this final rule established that
the deadline for submission of requests for international slots will be
published in a Federal Register notice for each scheduling season. The
purpose of the amendment is for the FAA deadline for international
slots requests to coincide with the International Air Transport
Association deadline for submission of international requests.
    In accordance with this amendment, the FAA announces in this notice
that the deadline for submitting requests for international slots at
John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) for allocation under 14 CFR
93.217 is October 13, 2005.
    Additionally,the FAA has designated Chicago's O'Hare International
Airport (O'Hare) as a Level 2, Schedules Facilitated Airport under the
IATA Guidelines. As such, the FAA requests carriers intending to
conduct international service to O'Hare submit their intended schedules
following the same procedures used for submitting requests for slots at
JFK.

DATES: Requests for international slots must be submitted no later than
October 13, 2005.

ADDRESSES: Requests may be submitted by mail to Slot Administration
