Notice of Submission Deadline for International Slots for the 
Winter 2005/2006 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 May 12, 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 intening 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 
May 12, 2005.

ADDRESSES: Requests may be submitted by mail to Slot Administration 
Office, AGC-220 Office of the Chief Counsel, 800 Independence Ave., 
SW., Washington, DC 20591; facsimile: 202-267-7277; ARINC: DCAYAXD;
