    European Air Law Association 23rd Annual Conference Palazzo Spada Piazza Capo di Ferro 13, Rome “Airline bankruptcy, focus on passenger rights” Laura Pierallini Studio Legale Pierallini e Associati, Rome LUISS University of Rome, Rome Rome, 4th November 2011 Airline bankruptcy, focus on passenger rights Laura Pierallini Air transport and insolvencies of air carriers: an introduction According to a Study carried out in 2011 by Steer Davies Gleave for the European Commission (entitled Impact assessment of passenger protection in the event of airline insolvency), between 2000 and 2010 there were 96 insolvencies of European airlines operating scheduled services. Of these insolvencies, some were of small airlines, but some were of larger scheduled airlines and caused significant issues for passengers (Air Madrid, SkyEurope and Sterling). Airline bankruptcy, focus on passenger rights Laura Pierallini The Italian market This trend has significantly affected the Italian market, where over the last eight years, a number of domestic air carriers have experienced insolvencies: ¾Minerva Airlines ¾Gandalf Airlines ¾Alpi Eagles ¾Volare Airlines ¾Air Europe ¾Alitalia ¾Myair ¾Livingston An overall, since 2003 the Italian air transport market has witnessed one insolvency per year. Airline bankruptcy, focus on passenger rights Laura Pierallini The Italian Air Transport sector and the Italian bankruptcy legal framework. ¾A remedy like Chapter 11 in force in the US legal system does not exist in Italy, where since 1979 special bankruptcy procedures (Amministrazione Straordinaria) have been introduced to face the insolvency of large enterprises (Law.

  • Identificazione E Affidabilità Delle Aerolinee Nell'odierno
    Identificazione e affidabilità delle aerolinee nell’odierno scenario del trasporto aereo Stante la difficoltà di “conoscere” l’aerolinea con cui si volerà, può almeno l’utente avere la certezza che le autorità preposte abbiano svolto idonea opera di vaglio e controllo? Uno dei principali problemi con cui oggi si deve confrontare l’utente del trasporto aereo è indubbiamente costituito dall’identità del vettore che si prenderà carico di trasportarlo alla sua destinazione. Una volta, fino a qualche anno fa, questo problema davvero non esisteva. In Italia in particolare, chi decideva di volare sapeva abbastanza di Alitalia, Itavia, Meridiana per poter prendere con cognizione di causa la sua decisione; parlare di scelta del vettore sarebbe errato, in quanto i collegamenti che questi operatori esercitavano raramente erano in sovrapposizione e come tali in concorrenza fra loro. Ma oggi il problema è molto peggiorato e usando questi termini non necessariamente intendiamo far riferimento all’aspetto della safety, che pure ha la sua valenza, quanto all’altro argomento assai più elementare di conoscere, nel senso di aver almeno sentito parlare del vettore che ci porterà a destinazione. L’esempio più eclatante di quanto stiamo dicendo è dato dal recente caso della Flash Air e dell’incidente di Sharm El Sheikh. Non fraintendiamo: abbiamo già scritto e ripetiamo anche in questa occasione, che fintanto che la commissione di inchiesta non conclude la sua indagine è assolutamente sbagliato –come purtroppo è accaduto- sparare a zero a priori contro la compagnia aerea. Il discorso vale per questo come per ogni altro malaugurato incidente che si dovesse verificare.

Box 416 CH-1215 Geneva 15 Airport, Switzerland INTERNATIONAL AIR TRANSPORT ASSOCIATION COMMENTS ON DG-COMPETITION CONSULTATION PAPER CONCERNING COMMISSION REGULATION 1617/93 NON-CONFIDENTIAL VERSION 6 September 2004 IATA COMMENTS ON 6 SEPTEMBER 2004 INTERLINE CONSULTATION PAPER NON-CONFIDENTIAL VERSION INTRODUCTION The International Air Transportation Association (“IATA”) submits these comments in response to the Consultation Paper concerning “revision and possible prorogation of Commission Regulation 1617/93” issued by DG Competition on 30 June 2004 (the “Consultation Paper”). The Consultation Paper sets out preliminary DG Competition views regarding the scope for a revised block exemption regulation defining the application of Article 81 EC Treaty to cooperation between airlines in the context of the IATA multilateral interline system. The Consultation Paper proposes that tariff consultation among airlines for routes between points in the EU, currently permitted under Regulation 1617/93, should be prohibited. The Consultation proposes that consultation between airlines on cargo rates for carriage from the EU to points outside the EU should likewise be prohibited. IATA recognizes the need for a revised regulation in light of changes in the Commission’s jurisdiction over air transport. IATA strongly disputes, however, both the conclusions set out in the Consultation Paper and the underlying legal and economic analysis. IATA submits that the revised regulation
