1Opinion of the Court
JOSÉ A. CABRANES, Circuit Judge:
We consider here, as matters of first impression in this Court, (1) whether the Air Carrier Access Act of 1986 (“ACAA”), 49 U.S.C. § 41705, provides a private cause of action against air carriers for disability discrimination; and (2) whether Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (“ADA”), 42 U.S.C. §§ 12181-12189, excludes air carriers from liability for discrimination in the provision of services in airport terminals used primarily to facilitate air transportation.
