   CHAPTER II--OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION 
                         (AVIATION PROCEEDINGS)
 
PART 255--CARRIER-OWNED COMPUTER RESERVATIONS SYSTEMS--Table of Contents
 
Sec. 255.11  Exceptions.

    (a) The obligations of a system under Sec. 255.4 shall not apply 
with respect to a carrier that refuses to enter into a contract that 
complies with this part or fails to pay a nondiscriminatory fee. A 
system shall apply its policy concerning treatment of non-paying 
carriers on a uniform basis to all such carriers, and shall not receive 
payment from any carrier for system-related services unless such 
payments are made pursuant to a contract complying with this part.
    (b) The obligations of a system under this part shall not apply to 
any foreign carrier that operates or whose affiliate operates an airline 
computer reservations system for travel agents outside the United 
States, if that system discriminates against the display of flights of 
any United States carrier or imposes discriminatory terms for 
participation by any United States carrier in its computer reservations 
system, provided that a system must continue complying with its 
obligations under this part until 14 days after it has given the 
Department and such foreign carrier written notice of its intent to deny 
such foreign carrier any or all of the protections of this part.
