An air carrier must provide necessary and adequate facilities and service to accommodate the transportation of mail and must transport mail whenever required by the Postal Service. The mail handling terminal facilities must be located where they can accommodate expeditious ground transportation of mail to and from the aircraft and be conveniently accessible to mail carriage vehicles. The facilities must be accessible to Postal Service officials during normal business hours.
See Appendix D for minimum requirements for air carrier facilities.
The Postal Service manager or representative must inspect and approve an air carrier’s facility before the air carrier is tendered mail, whether the air carrier is first entering the market or relocating an existing facility. An air carrier must contact the Alaska District Transportation Networks office (TANS office) at the Processing and Distribution Center in Anchorage, Alaska, to arrange for the physical inspection of each terminal or storage facility for the mail.
