Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 83 / Monday, May 3, 2021 / Rules and Regulations passengers have the opportunity to deplane;
8 Each covered carrier must ensure that it has sufficient resources to implement its Contingency Plan for Lengthy Tarmac Delays, as set forth in paragraphs a and b of this section;
and 9 Each covered carrier must ensure that its Contingency Plan for Lengthy Tarmac Delays, as set forth in paragraphs a and b of this section, has been coordinated with the following entities:
i Airport authorities including terminal facility operators where applicable at each U.S. large hub airport, medium hub airport, small hub airport, and non-hub airport that the carrier serves, as well as its regular U.S.
diversion airports;
ii U.S. Customs and Border Protection CBP at each large U.S. hub airport, medium hub airport, small hub airport, and non-hub airport that is regularly used for that carriers international flights, including regular U.S. diversion airports; and iii The Transportation Security Administration TSA at each U.S. large hub airport, medium hub airport, small hub airport, and non-hub airport that the carrier serves, including regular U.S.
diversion airports.
d Diversions. For purposes of this section, a diverted flight is treated as an arriving flight up to the point that an opportunity to deplane is provided to passengers. Once an opportunity to deplane is provided, the diversion is treated as a departing flight, and after that point, the departure delay exception in paragraph c3i of this section applies if the carrier begins to return to a suitable disembarkation point in order to deplane passengers as required by the exception.
e Code-share responsibility. The tarmac delay contingency plan of the carrier under whose code the service is marketed governs, if different from the operating carrier, unless the marketing carrier specifies in its contract of carriage that the operating carriers plan governs.
f Amendment of plan. At any time, a carrier may amend its Contingency Plan for Lengthy Tarmac Delays to decrease the time for aircraft to remain on the tarmac for domestic flights covered in paragraph c1 of this section, for aircraft to remain on the tarmac for international flights covered in paragraph c2 of this section, for aircraft to begin to return to a suitable disembarkation point covered in paragraph c3i of this section, and for providing food and water covered in paragraph c4 of this section.
