The negotiations conducted by the European Commission under a mandate received from the Council have the central objective of establishing an Open Aviation Area (OAA) between the EU and the US, going beyond the bilateral agreements that currently exist between individual Member States and the US. The aim is to create a single liberalised market for air transport between the EU and the US, ‘in which investment could flow freely and in which European and US airlines would be able to provide air services without any restriction, including in the domestic markets of both parties’.
The EU’s aim is to ensure reciprocity by the US in the liberalisation of air transport, in particular with regard to removing ‘the existing legal restrictions on foreign ownership and control of US airlines and on cabotage’ and also with regard to the ‘right of establishment’ and ‘State aid’.
This is why we reiterate that it should be the Member States and not the Community concluding this type of agreement, all the more so as this issue is of such strategic importance and ‘could serve as a model for further liberalisation and regulatory convergence worldwide’. We therefore restate our opposition to the pursuit of the liberalisation of this important public service in each country."@en1
