The opinion

PER CURIAM:

This is a petition to review an order of the CAB concerning the validity of “youth fare discounts” in airline passenger fare rates. This case was here previously, Transcontinental Bus Systems, Inc. v. CAB, 383 F.2d 466 (5th Cir. 1967), cert. denied, 390 U.S. 920 , 88 S.Ct. 850 , 19 L.Ed. 979 (1968), and we remanded it to the Board for further proceedings. A Hearing Examiner conducted hearings. The Board ordered his initial decision reversed, and remanded the case to him for further hearings. 1 Appellant seeks review of that order.

In its remand order the Board consolidated the youth fare case with the “family fare” discount investigation which had been remanded to the Board by the First Circuit, 2 and subsequently expanded this proceeding to include consideration of an additional class of reduced air (the “Discover America” fare). All these matters were consolidated with a Board investigation into all aspects of domestic air passenger fares. That overall investigation is now in progress. fares

Because the Board has seen fit to consolidate its consideration of airline fares into a single investigation, and because of the potentially sweeping impact of that investigation on the national interest, the public at large, and the airline industry, we have concluded that sound judicial administration requires that the consolidated proceedings be permitted to run their full course before the Board. This case is remanded to the Board for that purpose.
