Issue 187 March 2024
This issue brings the commentary fully up to date to 31 December 2023. It contains two new Chapters on UK Airspace Management and Modernisation (Chapter 5a) and the UK Space Industry Regulation (Division XI – Chapter 48), reflecting significant operational and legal developments in the UK in both these areas. It also looks into the Aviation (Consumers) (Amendment) Regulations 2023, which quietly amended the Air Passengers Rights Regulation (assimilated Regulation 261/2004) in late 2023.
As usual, it accounts for new legislation, case law, and other developments in many jurisdictions. They include decisions of many courts (including the English High Courton, several District Courts in the USA, and the Court of Justice of the European Union) on articles of the Montreal Convention 1999, Regulation 261/2004 and aircraft finance. Amongst many other matters, this issue provides an update on the UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) scheme, incorporates the Retained EU Law (Revocation and Reform) Act 2023, the Airports Slot Allocation (Alleviation of Usage Requirements) (No 2) Regulations 2023 (SI 2023/1133), the Aviation Statistics Regulations 2023 (SI 2023/1074), the Aviation Safety (Amendment) Regulations 2023 (SI 2023/588) and reports on several consultations in the fields of UAS, the advertising of cost-sharing flights and on advance information requirements for international general aviation flights.
The next issue, updating the legislative and other material in the Appendices (volumes 2-4) will be published in June 2024.
