WRITTEN QUESTION No. 325/99 by Luigi MORETTI Uneven distribution of air traffic between Milan's Malpensa and Linate airports  


Official Journal C 348 , 03/12/1999 P. 0049 





WRITTEN QUESTION P-0325/99by Luigi Moretti (NI) to the Commission(10 February 1999)Subject: Uneven distribution of air traffic between Milan's Malpensa and Linate airportsWith effect from 1 February 1999, Alitalia has dropped the 20.55 flight which it used to operate in conjunction with Meridiana from Rome's Fiumicino airport to Malpensa airport, Milan. This means that, after 17.55, all flights from Rome to Milan have Linate airport as their destination.Does the Commission consider this state of affairs to be consistent with the commitment to ensure that air traffic is evenly distributed between Malpensa and Milan?Answer given by Mr Kinnock on behalf of the Commission(17 March 1999)As provided in Article 8 of Regulation (EEC) 2408/92 of 23 July 1992 on access of Community air carriers to intra-Community air routes(1) Member States may adopt rules in order to distribute traffic between the different airports of an airport system. These rules are subject to the control of the Commission which ensures that Member States comply with the law by ensuring that rules are fully compatible with the principle of non-discrimination in relation to the nationality and identity of the carriers and that they respect the principles of Community law concerning the freedom to provide services.Concerning Malpensa and Linate airports, traffic distribution rules are enshrined in the Italian Decree of 9 October 1998 which provides that, as of 25 October 1998 and until access conditions to Malpensa airport are significantly improved, Community air carriers may continue to operate at Linate airport within a limit of 34 % of the frequencies operated at that airport during the preceding International air transport association (IATA) season. Such distribution of traffic between Linate and Malpensa airports can be considered as balanced. It reflects the condition of the existing road and rail access infrastructures to Malpensa airport and at the same time it permits the creation of a fully operational hub at that airport. On this basis, and in accordance with Community law - in particular, the principle of non-discriminatory provision of services - Community air carriers are entirely free to decide to operate a particular service either at Linate or Malpensa, as long as they respect the above mentioned threshold of 34 %. Therefore, the Commission does not consider that the fact that Alitalia no longer operates a particular service at Malpensa to be incompatible with the objective of a balanced distribution of traffic between Malpensa and Linate airports.(1) OJ L 240, 24.8.1992.
