Air transport regulation in a new era

The airline industry has entered into a new era. It has been under pressure to a regulatory reform from both inside and outside the industry. Traditional bilateralism has been challenged and a liberal regulatory approach has been called for. / With the conclusion of the GATS, it seems that no single sector of service should be excluded from its ambit. The extension of GATS principles to the international air transport, especially to "hard right", will require a significant change in approach to trade in air services. / It is submitted that the GATS multilateral approach is preferable to the existing regulatory arrangements for the economic regulation of international air transport. ICAO should continue its mission as a regulatory body with respect to technical matters. A true multinational framework for air transport under the WTO would serve consumers and the industry as well.
