Aviation: EU and ASEAN sign landmark region-to-region agreement connecting 1.1 billion people

The EU and ASEAN signed the first ever bloc-to-bloc air transport agreement on 17 October, opening up more air transport opportunities and strengthening direct connectivity between the two regions, while upgrading rules and standards for concerned flights. By setting global benchmarks that commit all 37 countries in the two regions to fair competition and to improving social and environmental conditions, it is the latest example of a new generation of international air transport agreements. The signing means new opportunities for consumers, airlines and airports both in Europe and in ASEAN countries.
