Brexit Impact on Aviation

Written by Aviation Advocacy on . Posted in Air navigation service providers, Air Services Agreements, Air traffic management, Airlines, Airports, International Civil Aviation Organization

Back in December, the European Commission released a notice informing airlines that, once the United Kingdom leaves the EU, UK carriers will retain none of the traffic rights to which the Union is a party.  This was exquisitely glossed over by the British press.  Given that the airline that is most likely impacted by this will be Ryanair, one can see why the British aviation industry seems to have taken to heart that famous UK t-shirt slogan of keeping calm and carrying on. Still, with this is mind, a recent speech by Andrew Haines, in which the CAA Chief Executive outlines a more nuanced and realistic path to navigate Brexit’s impact on aviation, is certainly worth revisiting.  He is both keeping calm, and indeed carrying on, but not with some t-shirt level of blind optimism.
