Airports Slot Allocation (Alleviation of Usage Requirements etc.) Regulations 2025Contribution
In addition to the changes regarding new entrants, the proposed measures also introduce permanent alleviation provisions for airlines that are unable to meet their slot usage targets due to extraordinary circumstances, such as another pandemic or health crisis. These alleviation measures are designed to provide flexibility when government-imposed restrictions, such as flight bans, border closures or quarantine requirements, significantly disrupt the viability of air travel.
