Order Adjusting the Standard Foreign Fare Level Index

DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

[Docket 37554]

Order Adjusting the Standard Foreign Fare Level Index

The International Air Transportation Competition Act (IATCA),

Public Law 96-192, requires that the Department, as successor to the

Civil Aeronautics Board, establish a Standard Foreign Fare Level (SFFL)

by adjusting the SFFL base periodically by percentage changes in actual

operating costs per available seat-mile (ASM). Order 80-2-69

established the first interim SFFL, and Order 94-3-50 established the

currently effective two-month SFFL applicable through May 31, 1994.

In establishing the SFFL for the two-month period beginning June 1,

1994, we have projected non-fuel costs based on the year ended December

31, 1993 data, and have determined fuel prices on the basis of the

latest available experienced monthly fuel cost levels as reported to

the Department.

By Order 94-5-40 fares may be increased by the following adjustment

factors over the October 1979 level:

Atlantic..................................................... 1.2979

Latin America................................................ 1.3199

Pacific...................................................... 2.0040

Canada....................................................... 1.4164

For further information contact: Keith A. Shangraw (202) 366-2439.

By the Department of Transportation: May 27, 1994.

Robert S. Goldner,

Special Counsel to the Acting Assistant Secretary for Aviation and

International Affairs.
