  • Relaxing the Rules for Airline Designation
    ATConf/6-IP/20 13/3/13 WORLDWIDE AIR TRANSPORT CONFERENCE (ATCONF) SIXTH MEETING Montréal, 18 to 22 March 2013 Agenda Item 2: Examination of key issues and related regulatory framework Agenda Item 2.2: Air carrier ownership and control RELAXING THE RULES FOR AIRLINE DESIGNATION (Presented by 54 Member States1, Members of the African Civil Aviation Commission (AFCAC)) 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 This paper, which is presented on behalf of the 54 African States, provides Africa’s strategy for sustainability of air transport, based on the harmonization of the authorization and designation of airlines based in line with a common set of criteria and the need for flexibility in order to facilitate Airline access to international capital markets. The common set of criteria is based on the YD eligibility criteria. 1.2 This provides eligible airlines with the possibility to gain access to the international capital market, and also encourage cooperation via consolidation, mergers and acquisition as well as cross border investments. 1.3 With globalization and liberalization of the industry, in particular airline privatization, alternative ownership and control models have emerged. The ICAO proposed clause for the designation of carriers however seem to be the most favoured (CONF/5-2003). The proposed clause permits designation subject to the requirement of incorporation, principal place of business and effective regulatory control as attributed to the designating State. 1.4 In practice, States have considerable latitude and discretion in the interpretation

Course Calendar 8. Events 29 January 2014 Welcome to 2014! Did you know that on 1 January 2014 we celebrated the 100th year of commercial aviation? It impresses me that many remarkable changes have since taken place in our industry when you think that in 1914 commercial aviation connected only two cities! Today that number has grown to 40,000 cities with airports being at the center of the vital air transport connection. Additionally, this year’s Chinese New Year, which will be celebrated in a few days, celebrates the Year of the Horse. In Chinese mythology the Horse is a symbol of traveling, competition and victory. How timely it is that these three words tie into what we do every day at our airports. Upon further reflection I see it this way - we connect people around the world to communities and bring goods to markets, we compete to enable the growth of the communities we serve and are victorious every time we nurture and develop talent through training, contributing to the overall success of the airport industry. To highlight our mission of addressing the educational needs of ACI members and World Business Partners we felt it fitting to develop a new tagline for ACI Global Training, which is “Better Education, Better Professionals, Better Airports”.
