Brussels: The European Commission is inviting citizens, travelers, and stakeholders to express their views via a public consultation on the revision of the Air Services Regulation, which governs access to the EU internal market for aviation and operations within it.
According to Cyprus News Agency, the Regulation determines when and where EU airlines can operate freely within the EU and how ticket prices should be displayed to consumers. The Commission stated that reviewing the Regulation will prepare the air services sector for the future, ensuring it remains competitive, maintains connectivity, and protects consumer interests. The review will cover hand luggage allowances and ways to reduce disruptions across the EU during air traffic controller strikes.
The consultation is open until 4 November 2025 (midnight Brussels time) and is available on the Have Your Say portal. Feedback from this consultation will contribute to the Impact Assessment on the revision of the Air Services Regulation, which the Commission is currently undertaking.
