New Quarterly Report from the EU Observatory of the Air Transport Market Available

Readers of the Aviation Law Blog may wish to peruse the European Union's Observatory of the Air Transport Market's latest quarterly report, covering April to June 2008.  The report offers a concise "snapshot" of regulatory, financial, and traffic data for the European aviation market.  Not surprisingly, the report indicates a slowdown in expansion compared to the second quarter of 2006 and 2007.  The report further notes operating losses for Air France-KLM, Iberia, and the SAS Group, along with low-cost carriers Air Berlin, SkyEurope, and Vueling. 

Previous reports, including comprehensive annual surveys, can be found on the European Commission's website.
