What is ‘Freedoms of the Air’?<\/h2>\n

The freedoms of the air represent a collection of commercial aviation rights that allow a country’s airlines the privilege to access and land in another nation’s airspace.<\/p>\n

Why were these Rights Established?<\/h2>\n

Following disputes regarding the level of aviation liberalization, Freedoms of the Air were established during the International Civil Aviation Convention, also known as the Chicago Convention, in 1944.<\/p>\n

How are the Rights Obtained?<\/h2>\n

The Freedoms of the Air are the guiding principle for rights to international flights. In practice, obtaining specific traffic rights within those freedoms is negotiated directly between countries.<\/p>\n

Who Established the Freedoms of the Air?<\/h2>\n

The Freedoms of the Air were established by a United Nations agency called the International Commission for Air Navigation, which is later known as International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).<\/p>\n
