United States and European Union agree "open skies" agreement
After years of negotiations that were usually blocked by one or both parties the United States and the 25 member countries of the EU are set to ratify a new "open skies" agreement. Under the proposals agreed on Friday 18 November, US airlines will be free to fly both to airports in the European Union and from there to third destinations.
Similarly, European airlines will be able to fly to US airports and from there to other destinations. It will make the air markets in both areas very interesting to say the least.
