  • AMS

On 12 May 2015, the European Commission adopted a decision under Article 9 of

by the joint venture parties legally binding (case AT.39964).

Under the commitments, the Parties offered to make landing and take-off slots available at
Amsterdam and/or New York airports (JFK or Newark) to enable competing airlines to
operate a daily service on the Amsterdam-New York route, as well as slots at Rome and/or
New York (JFK and Newark) to enable competing airlines to operate a daily service on the
Rome-New York route.
