Airports Council International (ACI) has stated that Europe’s airports have shown deep concern about recent calls to suspend the EU-Qatar Comprehensive Aviation Agreement, warning that a move might undermine air connectivity, consumer choice and the EU’s credibility with regards to international operations.
The agreement with Qatar, which was negotiated by the European Commission at the request of EU Member States, has been found to be fully consistent with the EU’s External Aviation Policy, which is based on open and unrestricted market access, regular consultations between parties, and regulatory convergence.
