EU States Back Softer Rules Tackling Unfair Airline Competition
BRUSSELS (Reuters) - EU ambassadors have backed watered-down proposals to tackle unfair competition from foreign airlines following opposition from some member states to the threat of revoking flying rights across the bloc, six people familiar with the matter said.
European Union members are considering a legislative proposal that would allow EU governments or airlines to submit complaints to the European Commission about any alleged discriminatory practices they face in non-EU countries or illegal subsidies benefiting non-EU airlines.
