Airlines and Airports Stress Need to Align EC Proposal on Airport Slot Relief in Summer 2021
Brussels/Geneva - Europe’s airlines[1] and airports are highly concerned by the European Commission’s (EC) proposal to amend the airport slot regulation. The proposal does not sufficiently address the extent of the continuing crisis in air transport, the likely state of recovery in Summer 2021 and the required level of airport slot relief measures that would best support aviation’s recovery from the COVID-19 crisis.
Airports, airlines and slot coordinators negotiated a worldwide recommendation for relief measures in the Worldwide Airport Slot Board (WASB).[2] The Commission proposal, which was developed in parallel to these negotiations, differs significantly from the WASB recommendation.
