Frequently Asked Questions on Aviation & Air Traffic Management Regulations
What are the core obligations under ReFuelEU Aviation?
Regulation (EU) 2023/2405 requires aviation fuel suppliers at EU airports to blend an increasing minimum share of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF), starting at 2% in 2025 and scaling to 6% in 2030 and 70% by 2050, alongside an anti-tankering obligation.
What is the Single European Sky (SES) initiative and SES 2+ reform?
The Single European Sky framework aims to reform European air traffic management (ATM) to triple airspace capacity, halve ATM costs, reduce aviation environmental impact by 10%, and improve safety tenfold. The SES 2+ reform proposal strengthens the performance and charging scheme, grants EASA expanded ATM oversight, and promotes virtual centre technologies and cross-border service provision.
How does the EU regulate commercial drone operations through EASA?
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/947 establishes three risk-based categories for UAS operations: Open (low-risk, no authorisation), Specific (medium-risk, requiring operational authorisation or standard scenario declaration), and Certified (high-risk, full type certification). The U-Space framework (Regulation (EU) 2021/664) provides automated drone traffic management in designated airspace volumes.
