File No. M4212/S503-2

Under Licence No. 030092, Saudi Arabian Airlines Corporation carrying on business as Saudi Arabian Airlines (the Licensee) is authorized to operate a non-scheduled international service to transport goods on a charter basis between points in Saudi Arabia and points in Canada.

By Order No. 2008-A-516 dated November 24, 2008, Licence No. 030092 was suspended pursuant to paragraph 75(1)(b) of the Canada Transportation Act, S.C., 1996, c. 10, as amended (the CTA), for failure by the Licensee to file with the Canadian Transportation Agency (the Agency) a valid certificate of insurance. The Licensee was provided with a period of thirty (30) days from the date of the Order to show cause why Licence No. 030092 should not be cancelled pursuant to paragraph 75(1)(b) of the CTA.

In response to the Order, the Licensee has requested a suspension of its licence.

Pursuant to paragraph 75(2)(b) of the CTA, the Agency may suspend or cancel a non-scheduled international licence in accordance with a request from the Licensee for the suspension or cancellation.

The Agency has considered the application and, pursuant to paragraph 75(2)(b) of the CTA, suspends Licence No. 030092.

To reinstate the suspended licence, the Licensee is provided with a period of one year from the date of this Order to file an application to that effect. If, at that time, upon consideration of the application, the Agency determines that the Licensee meets the requirements of subparagraphs 73(1)(a)(ii) and (iii) and paragraph 73(2)(a) of the CTA, which provide that the Licensee must hold a document issued by its government that is equivalent to a non-scheduled international licence issued by the Agency, must hold a Canadian aviation document and must have prescribed liability insurance coverage, the licence shall be reinstated.

Alternatively, one year from the date of this Order, if the application for reinstatement is not filed or the Licensee ceases to meet any of the requirements of subparagraphs 73(1)(a)(ii) and (iii) and paragraph 73(2)(a) of the CTA, the Licensee is provided with an additional thirty (30) days to show cause why Licence No. 030092 should not be cancelled pursuant to paragraph 75(1)(b) of the CTA.

This Order shall be affixed to Licence No. 030092 and the suspension of the licence shall remain in effect until further order of the Agency.
