Sag T-196/04, Ryanair mod Kommissionen, Sml. 2008 II, s. 3643, præmis 59.
The Commission must establish whether the State aid granted to Frankfurt Hahn Airport has changed the behaviour of the beneficiary in such a way that it engaged in activity contributing to the achievement of the objective of common interest that (i) it would not have carried out without the aid, or (ii) it would have carried out in a more restricted or different manner.

In addition, the aid is considered to be proportionate only if the same result could not be reached with less aid and less distortion.

That means that the amount and intensity of the aid must be limited to the minimum needed for the aided activity to take place.
Se punkt 53 i retningslinjerne for luftfart fra 2014.
According to the information submitted by Germany, without the aid the investment could not have been realised.
Se punkt 59 og 61 i retningslinjerne for luftfart fra 2014.
Germany submitted that the aid was necessary as it compensated only the costs of financing and a lower amount would have led to lower levels of investment.
Kommissionens afgørelse om statsstøtte C-12/08 (tidligere NN 74/07) — Slovakisk — Aftale mellem Bratislava lufthavn og Ryanair (EUT L 27 af 1.2.2011, s. 24).
Indeed, according to the financial results summarised in Tables 3 and 4 the airport is still loss-making and not able to finance its investment costs.
Dette tal er baseret på følgende beregning: […] flyvninger i 1999 * […] passagerer pr. flyvning = […] Ryanair-passagerer.
Therefore, it can be concluded that the aid was necessary to make investments in order to decongest the airport infrastructure and to meet the current requirements for modern airport infrastructure.
Rapport om lufthavnsafgifter — Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn, 1999.
Without the aid, Frankfurt Hahn airport would not have been able to meet the expected demand of airlines, passengers and freight forwarders and the level of the economic activity of the airport would have been reduced.
Investeringsomkostninger for den nye terminal på […] mio. DEM/forventet økonomisk udnyttelse af terminal i 20 år = årlig afskrivning på […] DEM.
It should also be noted that the public support was granted in a period when FFHG realised very significant investments into the infrastructure (more than EUR 220 million in 2001-2012).
I sine forventninger til indtægterne fra passagerafgifter antog FFHG, at Ryanair ville benytte Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn som base for tre fly, og derfor er passagerafgiften reduceret med markedsføringsstøtten på […] EUR pr. passager.
It follows that the investment aid covers only a fraction of the overall investment costs.
Omkostninger svarer til den opkrævede leje for brugen af clearance-udstyr plus driftsomkostninger til materiel (»OPS«).
The Commission therefore considers that the aid measure at stake had an incentive effect, that the amount of aid was limited to the minimum necessary for the aided activity to take place, and was thus proportionate.
På grundlag af […] årlige flyvninger.
On the basis of the above, the Commission concludes that the investment aid granted to Frankfurt Hahn airport is compatible with the internal market pursuant to Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty as it complies with the compatibility conditions laid down in point 61 of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines.
FFHG antog, at Ryanair ville åbne tre nye ruter, for hvilket selskabet ville betale […] DEM.
COMPATIBILITY OF OPERATING AID PURSUANT TO THE 2014 AVIATION GUIDELINES
Afskrivningen vedrører udvidelsen af passagerterminalen, som krævede en investering på […] (EUR […] plus EUR […] for den forventede merefterspørgsel) plus finansieringsomkostninger.
Section 5.1 of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines sets out the criteria that the Commission will apply in assessing the compatibility of operating aid with the internal market pursuant to Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty.
Disse investeringsomkostninger er blevet fordelt til Ryanair efter selskabets andel af passagermængden i Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn på […] %.
According to point 172 of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, the Commission will apply those criteria to all cases concerning operating aid, including pending notifications and unlawful non-notified aid cases.
Afskrivningsperiode: […] år.
According to point 137 of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, unlawful operating aid granted before the date of the publication of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines may be declared compatible with the internal market to the full extent of uncovered operating costs provided that the following cumulative conditions are met:
Selv om de oprindelige investeringsomkostninger for terminalen ikke blev anset for nødvendiggjort af Ryanair, tog FFHG i sin beregning højde for de forventede yderligere investeringsomkostninger til terminalen.
contribution to a well-defined objective of common interest: that condition is fulfilled, inter alia, if the aid increases the mobility of citizens of the Union and connectivity of the regions or facilitates regional development [134];

avoidance of undue negative effects on competition and trade [138].
Disse aftaler var dog ikke omfattet af de foranstaltninger, der var genstand for Kommissionens formelle undersøgelsesprocedure i 2008, og er derfor ikke omfattet af analysen i denne afgørelse, som ikke berører eventuelle foranstaltninger, som Kommissionen på et senere tidspunkt måtte træffe med hensyn til disse aftaler.
According to Section 5.1.2(a) of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, in order to give airports time to adjust to new market realities and to avoid any disruptions in the air traffic and connectivity of the regions, operating aid to airports will be considered to contribute to the achievement of an objective of common interest, if it: (i) increases the mobility of Union citizens and connectivity of regions by establishing access points for intra-Union flights; (ii) combats air traffic congestion at major Union hub airports; or (iii) facilitates regional development.
Kommissionen har fået oplyst, at delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz indgik markedsføringsaftaler med Ryanair.
In the light of the considerations in recitals 512 to 519, the Commission considers that the continued operation of Frankfurt-Hahn airport increased the mobility of Union citizens and connectivity of regions by establishing an access point for intra-Union flights in the Hunsrück region.
Disse aftaler var dog ikke omfattet af de foranstaltninger, der var genstand for Kommissionens formelle undersøgelsesprocedure i 2008, og er derfor ikke omfattet af analysen i denne afgørelse, som ikke berører eventuelle foranstaltninger, Kommissionen på et senere tidspunkt måtte træffe med hensyn til disse aftaler.
In addition, the continued operation of the airport facilitated the regional development of the Hunsrück region and the creation of new jobs.

Moreover, the operation and development of Frankfurt-Hahn airport also served to decongest Frankfurt Main airport.
EFT C 119 af 22.5.2002, s. 22.
The Commission therefore concludes that the measure at stake meets a clearly defined objective of common interest.
Punkt 173 i retningslinjerne for luftfart fra 2014.
According to Section 5.1.2(b) of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, in order to assess whether State aid is effective in achieving an objective of common interest, it is necessary to identify the problem to be addressed.
Punkt 172 i retningslinjerne for luftfart fra 2014.
In that respect, any State aid to an airport must be targeted towards a situation where aid can bring about a material improvement that the market cannot deliver itself.
Punkt 25, nr. 22, i retningslinjerne for luftfart fra 2014.
The Commission notes that Frankfurt Hahn airport is a regional airport with approximately 2,7 million passengers p.a. which experience in the period under investigation a significant growth in passengers (see Table 1).
Udtrykt i resultat før renter, skat og af- og nedskrivninger (»EBITDA«).
It has high fixed operating costs and under present market conditions it is not able to cover its own operating costs.

Therefore, there is a need for State intervention (see point 89 of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines).

Appropriateness of the aid measures
Kommissionens afgørelse af 1. oktober 2014 i statsstøttesag SA.21211 — Tyskland — Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn og Ryanair, endnu ikke offentliggjort i EUT.
According to Section 5.1.2(c) of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, any aid measure to an airport must be an appropriate policy instrument to address the objective of common interest.
Med hensyn til Frankfurt Main lufthavn og Luxembourg lufthavn bemærker Kommissionen videre, at segmentet for forretningsrejsende tegner sig for en betydelig markedsandel i disse lufthavne, mens det kun tegner sig for en forholdsvis begrænset andel i Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn.
The Member State must, therefore, demonstrate that no other less distortive policy instruments or aid instruments could have allowed the same objective to be reached.
Punkt 137, 113 og 114 i luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014.
According to Germany, the aid measures at stake are appropriate to address the intended objective of common interest that could not have been achieved by another less distortive policy instrument.
Punkt 137 og 116 i luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014.
In this case the aid amount corresponded to the uncovered operating losses (see Table 4) actually incurred and was limited to the minimum necessary as it was granted only as to the extent of actually incurred operating losses.
Punkt 137 og 124 i luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014.
No other policy measure would allow the airport to continue its operation.
Punkt 137 og 125 i luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014.
Hence, the compensation of losses is limited to the minimum and does not provide for any profits.
Punkt 137 og 131 luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014.
In view of recitals 557 and 558, the Commission considers that the measures at stake were appropriate to reach the desired objective of common interest.
Åbningsafgørelsen fra 2008 blev registreret under sagsnummer SA.21121 (C29/08).
Existence of incentive effect
Åbningsafgørelsen fra 2008 blev offentliggjort i Den Europæiske Unions Tidende [4] den 17. januar 2009.
According to Section 5.1.2(d) of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, the operating aid has an incentive effect if it is likely that, in the absence of operating aid, the level of economic activity of the airport would be significantly reduced.
Kommissionen modtog bemærkninger fra Deutsche Lufthansa AG (herefter »Lufthansa«), sammenslutningen af tyske luftfartsselskaber (Bundesverband der Deutschen Fluggesellschaften, herefter »BDF«), Ryanair, Société Air France SA (herefter »Air France«) og Sammenslutningen af Europæiske Luftfartsselskaber (herefter »AEA«).
Without the aid the scale of the operations at Frankfurt-Hahn airport would be severely impacted and reduced, leading eventually to the market exit of the airport due to uncovered operating losses.
Kommissionen videresendte disse bemærkninger til Tyskland den 16. april 2009.
Therefore, the Commission considers that the aid measures at stake had an incentive effect.
Tyskland fik en frist på en måned til at indgive bemærkninger til tredjeparternes bemærkninger og indgav yderligere oplysninger den 1. juli 2009.
Proportionality of the aid amount (aid limited to a minimum)
Ved brev af 20. februar 2012 anmodede Kommissionen om yderligere oplysninger vedrørende åbningsafgørelsen fra 2008.
According to Section 5.1.2(e) of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, in order to be proportionate, operating aid to airports must be limited to the minimum necessary for the aided activity to take place.
Tyskland svarede ved brev af 16. april 2012.
In this case, the aid amount was limited to the extent of uncovered operating losses, as it compensated only the costs actually incurred.
Ved brev af 27. juli 2012 anmodede Kommissionen igen om yderligere oplysninger.
Therefore, the Commission considers that the operating aid amount in this case was proportionate and limited to the minimum necessary for the aided activity to take place.
Ved brev af 25. februar 2014 oplyste Kommissionen Tyskland om vedtagelsen af Kommissionens retningslinjer for statsstøtte til lufthavne og luftfartsselskaber [7] (herefter »luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014«) den 20. februar 2014.
According to Section 5.1.2(f) of the 2014 Aviation Guidelines, when assessing the compatibility of operating aid account will be taken of the distortions of competition and the effects on trade.
Kommissionen meddelte Tyskland, at disse retningslinjer ville finde anvendelse fra tidspunktet for deres offentliggørelse i Den Europæiske Unions Tidende.
Within the standard catchment area of Frankfurt Hahn airport (1 hour travelling time by car or 100 kilometres distance) there are no commercially exploited airports.
Luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2014 blev offentliggjort i Den Europæiske Unions Tidende den 4. april 2014.
Even if this standard catchment area was to be further extended to other airports in the proximity of Frankfurt Hahn airport, as demonstrated in recitals 537 and 541 there are no undue negative effects on competition between the airports located in the proximity of Frankfurt Hahn airport (that is Frankfurt Main, Luxembourg and Saarbrücken airports).
De erstattede luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 1994 [8] og luftfartsretningslinjerne fra 2005 [9].
In view of the above, the Commission considers that any undue negative effects on competition and trade between Member States due to the operating aid granted in favour of FFHG are limited to the minimum.
I en rapport til Fraports holdingkomité [18] af 19. januar 2001 blev det anslået, at FFHG's akkumulerede underskud i perioden 1998-2005 ville udgøre omkring […] mio. EUR, dvs. det dobbelte af det forventede underskud i 1997.
In light of the considerations in recitals 551 to 568, the Commission concludes that the measures are compatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty.
To af FFHG's største fragtkunder flyttede fra eller reducerede samtidig deres aktiviteter i Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn, hvilket førte til et betydeligt fald i fragttrafikken, nemlig på 45 % i første halvår af 2001.
FINANCING OF THE AIRPORT
Pr. 31. december 2005 havde Fraport desuden ret til at opsige aftalen om overførsel af over- og underskud 2001.
Measure 1: 2001 PLTA: In the light of the considerations in recitals 291 to (302), the Commission concludes that at the time the 2001 PLTA was put into place the public authorities could legitimately consider that a PLTA to cover annual losses of FFHG did not constitute State aid.
Under disse omstændigheder kunne FFHG ikke finansiere »nødprogrammet« gennem yderligere lånoptagelse, men havde brug for ny kapital.
Measure 2: 2001 capital increase: The 2001 capital increase of EUR 27 million by Fraport and Land Rhineland-Palatinate constitutes State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Der blev truffet afgørelse om kapitalforhøjelsen ved resolution vedtaget af Fraports bestyrelser den 14. december 2001 og efterfølgende ved resolution vedtaget af FFHG's aktionærer den 9. januar 2002.
Measure 3: 2004 capital increase and Measure 4: 2004 PLTA: The 2004 capital increase granted by Fraport and the 2004 PLTA do not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
En forhøjelse af aktiekapitalen i et aktieselskab, som f.eks. FFHG, skal godkendes af alle deltagende aktionærer.
Even if they would constitute State aid, that aid can be deemed compatible on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty.
Efter denne godkendelse forhøjede Fraport og delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz aktiekapitalen med 27 mio. EUR fra 3,5 mio. EUR til 30,5 mio. EUR.
The 2004 capital increase by the Länder Rhineland-Palatinate and Hesse in favour of FFHG constitutes State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Den 9. januar 2002 indskød Fraport 19,7 mio. EUR, og delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz indskød 7,3 mio. EUR.
Measure 5: Compensation of FFHG for tasks falling within the public policy remit (security checks) and Measure 6: Direct grants from Land Rhineland-Palatinate: The Commission considers that the public funding granted to FFHG in the form of direct grants granted after 12 December 2000 constitutes State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Kapitalforhøjelsen havde til formål at finansiere forlængelsen af start- og landingsbanen og investeringer i anden infrastruktur med henblik på at forøge lufthavnens rentabilitet.
Measure 12: Equity increase: As the equity increase is intended to finance infrastructure measures which according to Germany by the decision to undertake those investments by the public shareholders, FFHG was entitled to received that funding, the Commission considers that the equity increase has to be assessed in the context of FFHG's public support In that regard, and in the light of the considerations in Section 8.1.1, the Commission concludes that FFHG has been engaged in an economic activity as from the date of the Aéroports de Paris judgment (12 December 2000) onward and constitutes an undertaking within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Disse investeringer vedrører f.eks. forlængelsen af start- og landingsbanen til 3800 m. Et udkast til en aktionæraftale mellem Fraport, delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz, og delstaten Hessen blev udarbejdet den 22. marts 2004.
As the measures have already been put at the disposal of FFHG or irrevocably granted with an entitlement for FFHG to receive those funds, the Commission considers that Germany has not respected the prohibition of Article 108(3) of the Treaty.
Delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz og delstaten Hessen aftalte, at denne kapitalforhøjelse skulle være med forbehold af en ny aftale om overførsel af over- og underskud mellem FFHG og Fraport for perioden indtil den 31. december 2014.
In view of recitals 512 to 545, the Commission concludes that the investment aid granted to Frankfurt Hahn airport is compatible with the internal market pursuant to Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty as it complies with the compatibility conditions laid down in point 61 of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines.
Aktionærerne aftalte også, at Fraport, delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz og delstaten Hessen skulle stille sikkerhed for eventuel yderligere gæld, som FFHG stiftede, i et forhold svarende til deres ejerandel af FFHG.
AGREEMENTS WITH RYANAIR AND THE SCHEDULE OF AIRPORT CHARGES
Da det var en betingelse for godkendelsen af kapitalforhøjelsen, forlængede FFHG og Fraport aftalen om overførsel af over- og underskud 2001 til 2014 ved aftale af 5. april 2004.
Measures 7, 9 and 10: 1999, 2002 and 2005 Ryanair agreement: Having analysed the agreements and the information available to FFHG at the time of the conclusion of those agreements, the Commission is satisfied that FFHG could reasonably expect the agreements to contribute to the profitability of Frankfurt Hahn airport, in that the expected incremental revenues were higher than the expected incremental costs.
Den nye aftale om overførsel af over- og underskud trådte dog først i kraft, efter at Fraports generalforsamling havde godkendt den.
As the agreements thus complied with the MEO principle, they did not confer an advantage to Ryanair.
FFHG indgik tre aftaler med Ryanair i 1999, 2002 og 2005.
Measures 8 and 11: 2001 and 2006 schedule of airport charges: In view of the ex ante profitability analysis conducted by FFHG the Commission considers that the 2001 and 2006 schedules of airport charges do not confer an economic advantage on the airlines which they would not have obtained under normal market conditions.
FFHG indførte desuden nye lufthavnsafgifter i 2001 og 2006.
As one of the cumulative criteria pursuant to Article 107(1) of the Treaty is not fulfilled, the Commission considers that the 1999, 2002 and 2005 Ryanair agreements between Frankfurt Hahn airport and Ryanair and the 2001 and 2006 schedules of airport charges do not constitute State aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
På bestyrelsesmøde den 5. maj 1999 forelagde FFHG's direktion bestyrelsen en Deckungsbeitragsrechnung (breakeven-analyse) for Ryanair-aftalen 1999.
The Commission notes that Germany accepts the adoption of the decision in English only,
Ifølge Tyskland stemte FFHG's bestyrelse ikke om Ryanair-aftalen 1999 eller breakeven-analysen, da indgåelsen af aftalen blev anset for en del af den daglige drift, som FFHG's direktion alene var ansvarlig for.
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Den anden aftale med Ryanair er dateret den 14. februar 2002 (herefter »Ryanair-aftalen 2002«) og blev forelagt FFHG's bestyrelse den 16. november 2001.
Article 1
Ifølge referatet af dette møde blev den godkendt af flertallet af bestyrelsesmedlemmerne.
The State aid, unlawfully put into effect by Germany in breach of Article 108(3) of the Treaty in favour of Flughafen Frankfurt Hahn GmbH between 2001 and 2012 by means of capital increases in 2001 amounting to EUR 27 million, capital increases in 2004 amounting to EUR 22 million and direct grants by Land Rhineland-Palatinate (to the extent that those grants were not purely related to public policy remit activities and did not to cover investments irrevocably decided prior 12 December 2000) is compatible with the internal market.
Passagerafgiften var dog den samme som i den indledende aftale fra 1999.
The capital increase in 2004 by Fraport AG and the profit and loss transfer agreement of 2004 do not constitute aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Planen for lufthavnsafgifter 2006 blev godkendt for Frankfurt Hahn lufthavn af delstaten Rheinland-Pfalz' transportministerium den 26. april 2006 [26] og trådte i kraft den 1. juni 2006.
Article 2
Den er baseret på de samme principper som planen for lufthavnsafgifter 2001 (se betragtning 57 ff. ovenfor).
The agreement between Ryanair and Flughafen Frankfurt Hahn GmbH, which entered into force on 1 April 1999, does not constitute aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
Tabel 14
The agreement between Ryanair and Flughafen Frankfurt Hahn GmbH dated 14 February 2002 does not constitute aid within the meaning of Article 107(1) of the Treaty.
