Receives Amended DOT Authorization
Republic Airways Holdings says its
Republic Airlines subsidiary has received authorization from the
US. Department of Transportation to engage in air transportation
using the Embraer 170 aircraft as a member of the United Express
family under a code share agreement with United Airlines. This
authorization is subject to the airline meeting the specific
requirements of the FAA in order to receive its Air Carrier
Certificate. Nonetheless, this is a critical step in the airlines
efforts to begin commercial passenger operations.
"We are pleased that the Department of Transportation found both
Republic Airlines managerially and financially fit to provide
scheduled passenger air service. We look forward to completing the
FAA certification process for Republic Airlines in a timely
manner," said Bryan Bedford, Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Republic Airways Holdings.
Republic Airways Holdings, based in Indianapolis, Indiana is an
airline holding company which owns two regional airlines,
Chautauqua Airlines and Republic Airlines. Chautauqua Airlines was
recently named this year's Regional Airline of the Year by Air
Transport World and Regional Airline World. The airline is
celebrating its thirtieth anniversary of scheduled commercial
passenger service. Chautauqua Airlines offers scheduled passenger
service on more than 580 flights daily to 68 cities in 31 states,
District of Columbia, Canada and the Bahamas through code sharing
agreements with four major US. airlines.
