  d/b/a/ AMERICAN EAGLE                                  Docket 49746

  to suspend service at Burlington, Iowa,
  under 49 USC, 41731 et seg.


                        ORDER PERMITTING .SUSPENSION

On August 29, 1994, Simmons Airlines, Inc. d/b/a/ American Eagle filed a 90-day notice of
its intention to suspend its non-subsidized air service at Burlington, Iowa, effective
November 30, 1994. (See Appendix A for a map.) As shown in Appendix B, Simmons
provides three daily one-stop round trips in the Burlington-Chicago market with 46-seat
Aerospatiale/Alenia (ATR) aircraft. In addition to Simmons's service the Chicago market is
also served by a United Express (Great Lakes Airlines, Inc.) commuter carrier which provides
four daily nonstop or one-stop Burlington-Chicago round trips with 19-seat Beech 1900
aircraft. In addition, the Burlington-St.. Louis market receives four nonstop round trips a day
with 19-seat British Aerostream Jetstream 31 equipment from a Trans World Express (Trans
States Airlines, Inc.) commuter carrier.

Simmons is a certificated air carrier and was required to file its notice because its proposed
suspension of service would result in a reduction of capacity at Burlington of more that 33
percent. Section 323.3(a)(2) of the Department's aviation economic regulations requires that
carriers file a 90-day notice if their proposed suspension would result in a reduction of total
seats linking the point to an FAA-designated hubs by 33 percent or more, and is thus referred
to as the one-third rule.
