EU/Morocco Euro-Mediterranean Aviation Agreement

2006/0048(NLE)

This document presents the final version of the Euro-Mediterranean Aviation Agreement between the European Community and its Member States of the one part and the Kingdom of Morocco of the other part. No amendments have been made to the body of the text.

To recall, the Agreement aims to:

  • promote an international aviation system based on fair competition among air carriers in the marketplace with minimum government interference and regulation;
  • make it possible for air carriers to offer the travelling and shipping public competitive prices and services in open markets;
  • have all sectors of the air transport industry, including air carrier workers, benefit in a liberalised agreement;
  • ensure the highest degree of safety and security in international air transport.

Lastly, it should be noted that the purpose of such an agreement is that it be applied in a progressive but integral way, and that a suitable mechanism can ensure ever closer harmonisation with Community legislation.
