Petitions for Exemption

    Docket No.: FAA-2006-25466.
    Petitioner: Southwest Airlines Co.
    Section of 14 CFR Affected: Sec. Sec.  121.391(a) and 121.393(b).
    Description of Relief Sought: To clarify or amend Southwest 
Airlines, Co. (Southwest), current Exemption No. 9382, which allows 
Southwest to substitute a pilot for one required flight attendant 
crewmember during boarding at an intermediate stop and to reduce the 
number of required flight attendants onboard during the deplaning of 
passengers at an intermediate stop. The clarification or amendment 
Southwest seeks would broaden the exemption to include all stops from 
the time the aircraft door is opened upon arrival at the gate until the 
door is closed prior to the next flight operation. Southwest also 
requests that the certificate holder may substitute for the required 
flight attendants other persons qualified in the emergency evacuation 
procedures for that aircraft as required in Sec.  121.417, for all 
stops, if these persons are identified to the passengers.
