PER CURIAM:

The circumstances of this case are set out in full in Ageloff v. Delta Airlines, Inc., 860 F.2d 379 (11th Cir.1988). The basic questions of Florida law were certified to the Supreme Court of Florida in Ageloff v. Delta Airlines, Inc., 867 F.2d 1268 (11th Cir.1989). The Supreme Court of Florida has answered the certified questions in Delta Air Lines, Inc. v. Ageloff, 552 So.2d 1089 (Fla.1989).

In our opinion published at 860 F.2d 379, we rejected several claims asserted by appellant Delta Airlines, thus affirming the district court in part. We reversed the district court’s allowance of expert witness fees in excess of the statutory amount. Id. at 390. We certified the major questions and deferred ruling on subsidiary evidentia-ry issues. Id. at 389. The Supreme Court of Florida resolved the certified issues in favor of appellees and against Delta Airlines, Inc. 552 So.2d 1089. In light of the decision of the Supreme Court of Florida, the subsidiary evidentiary issues previously deferred are due to be resolved in favor of appellees and against Delta Airlines, Inc.

Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is reversed to the extent that expert witness fees were allowed in excess of the statutory amount, but is affirmed in all other respects.

AFFIRMED IN PART.

REVERSED IN PART.
