Single Sky's first steps
Article Abstract:
Europe's airlines and airports have set out to create a Single Sky to achieve airspace reform across the region. The Association of European Airlines and the Airports Council International Europe held an industry forum to analyze European policy on airspace routes. The objective for the Single Sky program is to reduce air traffic delays which are currently costing European airlines around 8 billion. Once the strategy is adopted, radical changes are expected to take place in the form and function of Eurocontrol.
