Atlas Air Worldwide Commends U.S.-UK Air Services Agreement
November 30 2018 - 1:15PM
Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: AAWW) congratulates and
thanks the United States government for reaching an open skies
aviation agreement with the United Kingdom, to become effective
when the air services agreement between the United States and
Member States of the European Union ceases to apply to the United
Kingdom following Brexit.
The U.S.-UK agreement will ensure post-Brexit
continuation of the market-driven aviation environment needed to
facilitate continuing growth of U.S. jobs and the U.S. economy.
“We are extremely gratified that the United
States continues to pursue its well-tested open skies aviation
policy,” said President and Chief Executive Officer William J.
Flynn. “When it takes effect, the U.S.-UK air services agreement
will improve the global scheduling options for our airline
subsidiaries by allowing them to exercise seventh-freedom cargo
rights to and from the United Kingdom.”
