EU agrees on more centralized and cleaner European air traffic management

09-03-24

The European Union has reached an agreement on a key reform of the Single European Sky to move towards more centralized and sustainable air traffic management. This compromise, the result of negotiations between the European Parliament and the Member States, introduces significant changes to both the Single Sky regulation and the revision of the operational framework of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), overcoming previous discrepancies that had slowed its progress.

This reform aims to optimize the performance, structuring and management of airspace in Europe, as well as the efficiency of air navigation services. The aim is to increase the capacity and flexibility of the system, while reducing costs and minimizing the environmental and climate impact of aviation.
