Spohr expects France and Germany to take a hard line against the U.K. aviation industry in Brexit negotiations, threatening to disrupt flight connections across Europe.
Flights could be disrupted across Eurpoe, according to the report, because flights between EU nations are regulated by the Single European Sky treaty and the U.K. will likely need a new agreement once it leaves the EU. Also, British carriers that fly from one European state to another will probably require an operating license based somewhere on the continent, the article adds.
