Download as PDF 53402 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 184 / Monday, September 27, 2021 / Notices the DOT Agreement recognized that the alliance was still subject to the antitrust laws, that DOJ was continuing its review, and that DOT retained its authority to remedy any competitive harm. Spirit Airlines Formal Complaint On January 7, 2021, prior to execution and public release of the DOT Agreement, Spirit filed a formal complaint with DOT that was docketed in DOT–OST–2021–0001. In its complaint, Spirit requested an on-therecord investigation of the NEA to determine whether the NEA’s implementation would constitute an unfair method of competition in violation of 49 U.S.C. 41712(a).6 Spirit also asserted that insufficient information about the NEA was made public during the Department’s review, and that the remedies agreed to in the DOT Agreement were insufficient to address anticompetitive concerns. Several entities, including other airlines, an airline association, a consumer advocacy organization, and a non-profit organization focused on competition, submitted comments supporting various aspects of Spirit’s complaint.7 Those comments were filed after the public release of the DOT Agreement. American and JetBlue filed answers opposing Spirit’s complaint. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 DOJ Litigation On September 21, 2021, after completing an extended review of the NEA, DOJ announced its determination that the NEA violates the antitrust laws from exercising those authorities, including but not limited to investigation and enforcement regarding: (1) Potentially unfair or deceptive practices; (2) potentially exclusionary practices; [or] (3) acquisition or operation of additional slots or gates not currently held by American or JetBlue.’’ 6 The Department’s authority to address competition concerns is separate and distinct from that of DOJ, covering a different scope of anticompetitive conduct than DOJ’s authority. Under 49 U.S.C. 41712, the Department has authority to investigate and decide whether a carrier has been or is engaging in an unfair method of competition in air transportation. The Department prohibits anticompetitive conduct that (1) violates the antitrust laws, (2) is not yet serious enough to violate the antitrust laws but may well do so if left unchecked, or (3) although not a violation of the letter of the antitrust laws, is close to a violation or is contrary to their spirit. See, e.g., ASTA v. United et al., DOT Order 2002–9–2 (Sep. 4, 2002), citing E.I. Du Pont de Nemours and Co. v. Federal Trade Commission, 729 F.2d 128, 136– 137 (2d Cir. 1984). E.I.Du Pont de Nemours interpreted the Federal Trade Commission’s authority under 15. U.S.C. 45, upon which 49 U.S.C. 41712 is based. 7 The organizations included the National Air Carrier Association, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines, Travelers United, the American Antitrust Institute, Airports Council International—North America, and the Service Employees International Union. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:08 Sep 24, 2021 Jkt 253001 and that the agency has initiated action to enjoin the agreements. DOJ has shared with the Department its significant concerns with respect to the effect of the NEA on competition. The Department notes that the DOT Agreement does not, nor was it intended to, wholly address these concerns. The Department will work closely with DOJ should it seek data and documents that will help in the resolution of DOJ’s action. Because of the DOJ action, and to avoid duplicative or inconsistent proceedings, DOT is separately staying the proceedings in the Spirit formal complaint while the DOJ action is unresolved. Although the DOT Agreement remains in effect, the Department will continue coordinating with DOJ. The Department notes its own statutory authority to investigate and prohibit anticompetitive conduct if the situation warrants. However, the Department intends to defer to DOJ, as the primary enforcer of Federal antitrust laws, to resolve antitrust concerns with respect to the NEA. The Department believes that it would be inefficient and unhelpful to have two concurrent proceedings and therefore intends to defer any independent action until the DOJ antitrust litigation has concluded. Issued this 21st Day of September, 2021, in Washington, DC. John E. Putnam, Acting General Counsel.
