87W: Renewal of open aviation market licence

You could also call this:

“How to get your open aviation market licence renewed”

You can renew your open aviation market licence. The Secretary is allowed to renew these licences. If you want to renew your licence, you need to ask for it at least 3 months before it runs out.

When you ask to renew your licence, the Secretary will look at your application as if it’s a new one. They’ll check all the same things they would for a new licence. Just because you had a licence before doesn’t mean you’ll automatically get a new one.

The Secretary will think about all the important things they considered when you first got your licence. They’ll decide if you can have a new one and for how long. For some airlines from other countries, the Secretary might even give a licence that doesn’t have an end date.

Remember, you don’t have a right to get your licence renewed. It’s up to the Secretary to decide based on all the information they look at.
