Pilotai iš visos Europos ragina ES politikos formuotojus reformuoti Europos oro erdvę jau dabar

Europe’s leading airlines are calling on EU transport ministers to make the benefits of airspace reform a reality as they met in Stockholm on 27 February. Pilots representing 9 A4E member airlines have come together in a Naujame vaizdo įraše to urge ministers to seize the opportunity and move the Single European Sky (SES2+) legislation out of the holding pattern it has been stuck in for many years.

Implementing the updated Single European Sky (SES2+), as proposed by the European Commission, would be a major step in creating a seamless European airspace. This would enable pilots to fly the most efficient routes possible which will reduce the amount of fuel used in-flight, reduce delays and deliver a reduction of around 7% in CO2 emissions.

The EU has been discussing airspace reform for decades without any real results to show for it. As airlines face into a busy summer and the prospect of ever more congested European airspace, the need for reform is clearer than ever.

Airlines for Europe (A4E) Managing Director Laurent said: “Member states have the opportunity to achieve a seamless and digitalised airspace in Europe by supporting the EU Commission’s proposal to reform the Single European Sky (SES2+) legislation. Our pilots have a message for ministers today: We’ve been waiting too long for this important reform and it’s time to take action on airspace now to deliver for passengers, for Europe and for the environment.”
