Explanatory note

(This Note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations further amend the Civil Aviation (Route Charges for Navigation Services) Regulations 1994 (“the Principal Regulations”) as follows:

The unit rate in ECUs for Norway specified in Schedule 2 to the Principal Regulations is reduced from 54.16 to 41.02 (regulation 2(a)).

In consequence new transatlantic charges specified in Schedule 3 to the Principal Regulations are introduced (regulation 2(b)).

The amount of the charges in ECUs set out in Schedule 3 to the Principal Regulations are calculated by reference to the costs of provision of en-route navigation services in the participating countries in the Eurocontrol charges system, the amount of traffic using each country’s airspace and the relationship of each country’s currency to the ECU over a period agreed by Ministers of the participating countries. The interaction of these elements varies in each country. In calculating the revised charges the average of the exchange rates between the ECU and the currencies of the participating countries obtaining in the month of July 1994 have been used.

Out of the 158 aerodromes listed in Schedule 3, the transatlantic charges have been decreased in relation to 15 of those aerodromes. The decreases range from 0.1% in the case of Frankfurt and Munich in Zone II to 20.7% in the case of Stockholm in Zone II.
