§ 93.130 

the maximum number of operations al-
located for that airport if the operation 
is not a scheduled operation to or from 
a high density airport and he obtains a 
departure or arrival reservation, as ap-
propriate, from ATC. The reservation 
is granted by ATC whenever the air-
craft may be accommodated without 
significant additional delay to the op-
erations allocated for the airport for 
which the reservation is requested and 
the ceiling reported at the airport is at 
least 1,000 feet and the ground visi-
bility reported at the airport is at least 
3 miles. 

(c) For the purpose of this section a 

scheduled operation to or from the high 
density airport is any operation regu-
larly conducted by an air carrier or 
commuter between a high density air-
port and another point regularly served 
by that operator unless the service is 
conducted pursuant to irregular char-
ter or hiring of aircraft or is a nonpas-
senger flight. 

(d) An aircraft operator must obtain 

an IFR reservation in accordance with 
procedures established by the Adminis-
trator. For IFR flights to or from a 
high density airport, reservations for 
takeoff and arrival shall be obtained 
prior to takeoff.

Suspension of allocations. 

The Administrator may suspend the 

effectiveness of any allocation pre-
scribed in § 93.123 and the reservation 
requirements prescribed in § 93.125 if he 
finds such action to be consistent with 
the efficient use of the airspace. Such 
suspension may be terminated when-
ever the Administrator determines 
that such action is necessary for the ef-
ficient use of the airspace.
