90-DAY NOTICE OF REDEMPTION, INC.

d/b/a ISLAND AIR SERVICE OF INTENT

TO TERMINATE ESSENTIAL AIR SERVICE

AT ALITAK, ALASKA

Redemption, Inc. d/b/a Island Air Service (“Island Air”) hereby
gives 90-days notice, pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 41734 and 14 C.F.R. 323,
of its intent to terminate Essential Air Service (“EAS”) at Alitak,
Alaska.

In support of this notice, Island Air states as follows:

Island Air’s principal place of business if P.O. Box 125, Kodiak AK, 
99615.

Island Air holds a certificate of public convenience and necessity,
authorizing it to engage in scheduled air transportation or persons,
property and mail.

Alitak is not served by any other certificated carrier.

Island Air currently provides roundtrip service between Kodiak and
Alitak subsidy free three flights per week with Cessna 206 4-passenger
aircraft or deHavilland Beaver 6-passenger aircraft on-peak and two
flights per week off-peak.  

The Department made the most recent EAS determination for Alitak in
Order 95-12-4.

Declines in general economic activity and commercial fishing have
reduced the traffic to and from Alitak, particularly during the winter. 
Island Air can no longer provide air service to Alitak without
substantial subsidy.

WHEREFORE: Redemption, Inc. d/b/a Island Air Service gives 90-days
notice of its intent to terminate all air service to Alitak, AK on or
before November 18, 2005.  Island Air also requests waiver of the
provisions of 14 C.F.R. 323 so that it may terminate services as soon as
possible.

Respectfully submitted,

Redemption, Inc. d/b/a Island Air Service
