Commission adopts measures for an open and connected aviation
Commission adopts measures to maintain and strengthen an open and connected aviation market that directly benefits EU citizens, workers and businesses.
The European Commission today delivered on its ambitious Aviation Strategy for Europe by adopting a series of measures to further support open and connected aviation markets in the European Union and beyond.
The four initiatives presented today aim to safeguard competition and connectivity in aviation, facilitate investments in European airlines and enhance the efficiency of European skies. This will reinforce the competitiveness of European aviation, which is a strong driver of job creation, economic growth and trade.
As a result of these initiatives, citizens will benefit from better value flights to a greater choice of travel destinations in Europe and worldwide. European airlines will have better access to investment and benefit from a more level playing field when operating outside of Europe. This will allow the sector to grow and create jobs and prosperity in Europe.
