lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this resolution, which stresses that European policy in terms of air transport does not currently pay enough attention to regional airports. Yet these airports have real growth potential. We must speed up work on the Single European Sky initiative and take better account of the special role of regional airports in our transport networks. They are an important source of social and economic development in the regions – especially in regions where other forms of transport are lacking, they attract new companies and can boost regional tourism. The report also deals with an important point on consumer protection: the issue of certain practices by the main low-cost airlines, namely, abusive reservation charges or hand luggage restrictions, which discourage travellers from buying goods in the airport. By attacking the so-called ‘one bag’ rule – by setting common upper limits for weight restrictions or capping the charges for excess and overweight baggage – we will boost retail sales in regional airports and indeed in the regions themselves."@en1
