58In this instance, it appears clear from the information provided to the Court that, first, Vueling had, throughout the period at issue in the main proceedings, at the Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport at Roissy, an operating base, within the meaning of national law, capable of constituting a branch or a permanent representation, within the meaning of Article 14(2)(a)(i) of Regulation No 1408/71, since Vueling operated its air transport activity in a stable and continuous manner from premises or infrastructures that constituted such an operating base, which, being the responsibility of a commercial manager, thus appeared to enjoy a certain degree of autonomy. Second, the same factors also suggest that the flight and cabin crew concerned were employed by that entity, within the meaning of that provision, since that was the place where they essentially discharged their obligations to their employer, in the sense specified in the preceding paragraph.
