Section 5

The appropriate U.S. authorities shall make available to Russian airlines and other civil aircraft operators all U.S. airspace entry and exit points that are available to any non-U.S. airline. Subject to appropriate U.S. internal procedures, the U.S. authorities shall provide access to published common ATS routings to/from each entry and exit point for each destination authorized for scheduled and charter services pursuant to the Agreement, or to the optimal ATS routing where no common ATS routing is published. Russian airlines and other civil aircraft operators shall provide two weeks' advance notification of the specific entry point and exit point, and one alternate entry point and one alternate exit point, and ATS routing to the used for each destination to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Office of International Aviation, Washington, D.C. Entry and exit points and ATS routings may be changed by the Russian airlines and other civil aircraft operators at any time with at least two weeks' notice to FAA.

The U.S. authorities reserve the right to modify the ATS routing for security reasons, but shall attempt to keep the routing as close to optimum as possible.
