    三. 本條第二款所述的運價可由尋求批准此項運價的指定空運企業在與其他的空運企業協商之後確定。但是, 如果某空運企業未能取得其他指定空運企業同意此種運價,或因為沒有其他空運企業經營相同航線時,不應阻止該指定空運企業提議或航空當局批准任何運價。在此文中,“相同航線”指經營的航線,而不是規定航線。

The agreed services provided by the designated airlines of the Contracting Parties shall bear a close relationship to the requirements of the public for transportation on the specified routes and shall have as their primary objective the provision at reasonable load factor of capacity adequate to meet the current and reasonably anticipated requirements for the carriage of passengers and cargo, including mail to or from the area of the Contracting Party which has designated the airline. Provision for the carriage of passengers and cargo, including mail taken on board and discharged at points on the specified routes other than points in the area of the Contracting Party which designated the airline shall be made in accordance with the general principles that capacity shall be related to:

    a) Traffic requirements to and from the area of the Contracting Party which has designated the airlines;

    b) Traffic requirements of the region through which the agreed service passes, after taking into account of the other transport services established by the airlines of the States comprising the region.

    Article 8

    Approval of Schedules

    1. The designated airlines of the Contracting Parties shall submit their proposed schedules for the agreed services and any amendments thereto for the approval of the Aeronautical Authorities of both Contracting Parties no later than 30 days before their proposed effective date.

    2. The designated airlines of the Contracting Parties may operate on an "ad hoc" basis flights supplementary to the agreed services. Applications for the approval of such flights shall be submitted to the Aeronautical Authorities of both Contracting Parties no later than 3 working days before the proposed date of operation.

    Article 9

    Tariffs

    1. The term "tariff" means:

    a) The fare charged by an airline for the carriage of passengers and their baggage on scheduled air services and the charges and conditions for the services ancillary to such carriage;

    b) The freight rate charged by an airline for the carriage of cargo (excluding mail) on scheduled air services;

    c) The conditions governing the availability or applicability of any such fare or freight rate including any benefits attaching to it; and

    d) The rate of commission paid by an airline to an agent in respect of tickets sold or air waybills completed by that agent for carriage on scheduled services.

    2. The tariffs to be applied by a designated airline of one Contracting Party for carriage to and from the area of the other Contracting Party shall be established at reasonable levels, due regard being paid to all relevant factors, including cost of operation, the interest of users, reasonable profit, the characteristics of each service and the tariffs charged by other airlines.

    3. The tariffs referred to in paragraph 2 of this Article may be agreed by the designated airlines seeking approval of the tariff after consultation with other airlines. However, the designated airline shall not be precluded from proposing nor the Aeronautical Authorities from approving, any tariff, if that airline shall have failed to obtain the agreement of the other designated airlines to such tariff, or because no other designated airline is operating on the same route. In this context "the same route" means the route operated, not the specified route.

    4. The tariffs referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article shall be submitted for approval to the Aeronautical Authorities of the Contracting Parties at least 60 days before the proposed date of their introduction. If within 30 days, after the submission of the tariffs neither of the Aeronautical Authorities notifies to the other Aeronautical Authorities its disapproval, these tariffs shall be considered to have been approved. In special cases, this time limits may be reduced, subject to the Agreement of the said authorities.

    5. If a tariff has been disapproved by the Aeronautical Authorities of one Contracting Party in accordance with paragraph 4 of this Article, the Aeronautical Authorities of both Contracting Parties shall endeavor to determine the tariff by mutual agreement. Such negotiations shall begin within 30 days from the date on which the Aeronautical Authorities of one Contracting Party have notified to the Aeronautical Authorities of the other Contracting Party their disapproval of the tariff. In the absence of agreement, the dispute shall be dealt with in accordance with the provisions laid down in Article 18 of this Agreement.

    6. A tariff already established shall remain in force until a new tariff has been established in accordance with the provisions of this Article or Article 17 of this Agreement but not longer than 12 months from the date of disapproval by the Aeronautical Authorities of one of the Contracting Parties.

    7. The Aeronautical Authorities of each Contracting Party shall use their best endeavors to ensure that the designated airlines conform to the agreed tariffs filed with the Aeronautical Authorities of the Contracting Parties, and that no airline illegally rebates any portion of such tariffs by any means, directly or indirectly.

    Article 10

    Customs Duties

    1. Aircraft operated in international air services by the designated airlines of either Contracting Party, their regular equipment, fuel, lubricants, spare parts including engines, and aircraft stores (including but not limited to such items as food, beverages and tobacco) which are on board such aircraft shall be relieved by the other Contracting Party on the basis of reciprocity from all customs duties, excise taxes and similar fees and charges not based on the cost of services provided on arrival, provided such equipment and supplies remain on board the aircraft.

    5. The reliefs provided for by this Article shall also be available in situations where a designated airline of either Contracting Party has entered into arrangements with another airline or airlines for the loan or transfer in the area of the other Contracting Party of the items specified in paragraphs 1 and 2 of this Article, provided that such other airline or airlines similarly enjoy such reliefs from such other Contracting Party.

    Article 11

    Aviation Security

    1. The Contracting Parties reaffirm that their obligation to each other to protect the security of civil aviation against unlawful interference forms an integral part of this Agreement. The Contracting Parties shall in particular act in conformity with the aviation security provisions of the Convention on Offenses and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft, signed at Tokyo on 14 September 1963, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft, signed at The Hague on 16 December 1970 and the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts Against the Safety of Civil Aviation signed at Montreal on 23 September 1971.

Each Contracting Party shall ensure that adequate measures are effectively applied within its area to protect the aircraft and to inspect passengers, crew, carry-on items, baggage, cargo and aircraft stores prior to and during boarding or loading. Each Contracting Party shall also give sympathetic consideration to any request from the other Contracting Party for reasonable special security measures to meet a particular threat.

    5. When an incident or threat of an incident of unlawful seizure of civil aircraft or other unlawful acts against the safety of such aircraft, their passengers and crew, airports or air navigation facilities occurs, the Contracting Parties shall assist each other by facilitating communications and other appropriate measures intended to terminate rapidly and safely such incident or threat thereof.

    Article 12

If, followed such consultations, the aeronautical authorities of either Contracting Party find that the other Contracting Party does not effectively maintain and administer safety and security standards and requirements in those areas that are equal to or above the minimum standards which may be established pursuant to the Convention, they will notify the other Contracting Party of such findings and the steps considered necessary to bring the safety and security standards and requirements of the other Contracting Party to standards at least equal to the minimum standards which may be established pursuant to the Convention, and the other Contracting Party shall take appropriate steps to remedy the same.

    3. Each Contracting Party reserves the right pursuant to Article 6 to withhold, limit, suspend, revoke or to impose conditions on the operating authorization with respect to any designated airline by the other Contracting Party, in the event the other Contracting Party does not take such appropriate action within a reasonable time.

    Article 13
