  • International Air Service Controversies: Frequently Asked Questions
    International Air Service Controversies: Frequently Asked Questions Rachel Y. Tang Analyst in Transportation and Industry May 4, 2015 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R44016 International Air Service Controversies: Frequently Asked Questions Summary “Open skies” agreements are a form of international civil air service agreement that facilitates international aviation in a deregulated environment. They eliminate government involvement in airline decisionmaking about international routes, capacity, and prices. Since 1992, the United States has reached 114 open skies agreements governing international air passenger and air freight services. There are two ongoing controversies that are related to open skies agreements. One controversy involves some U.S. network airlines’ and labor unions’ opposition to the expansion of three fast- growing airlines based in the Persian Gulf region—Emirates Airline, Etihad Airways, and Qatar Airways. The U.S. carriers allege the subsidies and support that these three Persian Gulf carriers purportedly receive from their government owners contravene fair competitive practices requirements of their home countries’ open skies agreements with the United States. The U.S. carriers have urged the Administration to freeze the number of flights Gulf carriers operate to the United States and to renegotiate the open skies accords with Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Similar protests have occurred in Europe, initiated by Lufthansa Group and Air France-KLM, and organized labor. The other controversy concerns Norwegian Air International (NAI), an airline that is registered in Ireland and plans to operate transatlantic flights to U.S. destinations. NAI’s application has met strong opposition from labor groups and some airlines that allege that NAI violates a provision of the U.S.-EU open skies agreement that governs labor standards.

  • Tax Strategy Emirates Group
    Emirates Group Tax Strategy Group Tax – September 2020 Tax Strategy Emirates Group The Emirates group (the “Group”) comprises Emirates and dnata. Emirates is a global airline, serving 159 airports in 85 countries from its hub in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. dnata is one of the largest combined air services providers in the world and the largest travel management company in the UAE. Its main activities are the provision of cargo and ground handling, catering and travel services. The aim of the Tax Strategy is to reflect and support the business of the Group by ensuring full compliance with tax legislation and regulations in the countries where the Group has operations, mitigating tax risks in a timely and cost effective manner and by ensuring a sustainable tax rate. Tax profile of the Group The tax profile of Emirates is predominantly determined by the application of bilateral tax treaties concluded between the UAE and the various countries. These tax treaties, in general, follow the basic principle laid down in article 8 of the OECD Model Treaty, based on which profits derived from the operation of aircraft in international traffic are exclusively taxable in the country of residence of the airliner. The UAE, the country of residence of Emirates, does not levy corporate income taxes on aviation profits. Alternatively, countries may exempt the profits derived from international traffic on the basis of reciprocity. In the situation where there is no tax treaty or reciprocal exemption, the profit is in general determined on a net income basis via generally accepted net income apportionment formulas.
