July 28, 2010

File No. M4212/E176-4

Eva Airways Corporation (Eva Air) has applied to the Canadian Transportation Agency (Agency) for extra-bilateral authority to permit it to serve Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada to pick up cargo bound to Taipei, on one of its scheduled international all-cargo flights from Chicago, Illinois, United States of America to Taipei on or about July 30, 2010.

Air Canada advised the Agency that it has no objection to the application.

Eva Air is licensed to operate a scheduled international service in a manner consistent with the Supplementary Confidential Memorandum on Air Services between the Canadian Trade Office in Taipei and the Civil Aeronautics Administration of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications in Taipei signed on February 25, 1999, as amended (CMOU).

The Agency may grant temporary authority pursuant to subsection 78(2) of the Canada Transportation Act (CTA) for a service which is not permitted in an arrangement.

The Agency has considered the application and the material in support and finds that it is appropriate to grant this authority.

Accordingly, the Agency, pursuant to subsection 78(2) of the CTA, varies Condition No. 1 of Eva Air's Licence to the extent necessary to permit it to serve Vancouver to pick up cargo bound to Taipei, on one of its scheduled international all-cargo flights from Chicago to Taipei on or about July 30, 2010.

In all other respects, the service shall be operated in accordance with the CMOU.

This authority does not exempt Eva Airways from the requirements of other legislative acts or regulations, including those of Transport Canada.
