As indicated in recitals 293 and 308, the development of traffic at Marseille Provence Airport has not affected the activity of airports situated within the same catchment area and the development of trade is not affected to an extent contrary to the common interest.
Prin urmare, Comisia concluzionează că această măsură este, de asemenea, în concordanță cu principiul investitorului prudent în economia de piață, întrucât era prevăzut ca aceasta să aducă beneficii suplimentare.
The intensity of this aid was limited to 13 % [72].
Parcare gratuită pe timp de noapte
As the airside investments could not have been avoided, in the absence of the subsidy, the programme would have necessarily been reduced by over EUR 3 million, most likely taken from the internal improvements of Hall 1, such as those intended to provide space for tour operators, enable airlines to have ticket sale counters or create shops.
Începând de la 1 martie 2005 până în prezent, staționarea cuprinsă între orele 22.00 și 6.00 este gratuită pentru activitatea de transport de pasageri, pentru cinci frecvențe săptămânale pe aceeași destinație pentru minimum un sezon IATA și pentru aeronavele care staționează timp de cel puțin șase ore consecutive, între 22.00 și 6.00.
However, these are the investments that have allowed foreign airlines and tour operators to be accommodated and commercial revenues to be increased.
Această măsură se aplică tuturor companiilor, în mod nediscriminatoriu, pe cele două terminale.
Given the prevailing market conditions at the time when the aid was granted, namely a lack of experience and initiative among private operators with little inclination to invest in airport infrastructure, a high level of risk and uncertain prospects for profitability in a newly liberalised market, a private investor would not, in all likelihood, have invested in the reconstruction of airport infrastructure or in a TGV connection at Marseille Provence Airport.
Potrivit Franței, staționarea pe timp de noapte pe platformă ar permite companiilor aeriene să îmbarce călători în primul slot orar de dimineață și să aterizeze la sfârșitul zilei, prin urmare, pentru zborurile pe distanțe medii, înseamnă să efectueze patru rotații pe zi, în loc de trei.
ASSESSMENT OF THE MEASURES IN FAVOUR OF AIRLINES USING THE AIRPORT — EXISTENCE OF AID
Franța susține că un studiu privind contabilitatea din 2004 permite să se stabilească ex ante rentabilitatea acestei măsuri pentru operatorul aeroportuar.
POTENTIAL AID GRANTED THROUGH THE REDUCED PASSENGER CHARGE FOR NATIONAL FLIGHTS
Acest studiu se bazează pe ipoteza că, pentru terminalul MP1, numai zborurile interne pe distanțe medii erau susceptibile să efectueze rotații suplimentare având în vedere gratuitatea staționării pe timp de noapte.
In an earlier decision [73], the Commission concluded that an aid scheme existed in favour of airlines operating routes with a national destination, which was incompatible with the internal market.
Pentru terminalul MP2, companiile low-cost cliente ale acestui terminal care nu operează zboruri zilnice de la baza lor de noapte și efectuează o singură întoarcere zilnică, s-a considerat că fiecare dintre aeronavele acestora este susceptibilă să efectueze o rotație zilnică suplimentară.
France took steps to abolish this scheme.
Un factor de ponderare de 50 % s-a aplicat acestor ipoteze privind rotațiile suplimentare.
The extract from the 2007 Cocoéco deliberations produced by France shows that the passenger charges applicable to national flights and to flights to EU countries that are members of the Schengen Area were aligned at Marseille Provence Airport from 1 January 2008.
Studiul efectuat pleacă de la ipoteza că aceste costuri suplimentare pentru staționarea pe timp de noapte sunt limitate la costurile legate de mâna de lucru, întreținere, reparare și consum, estimate la […]* EUR pe noapte per aeronavă.
The Commission therefore considers that this abolished measure does not need re-investigation.
Ipotezele prezentate în studiul inițial păreau realiste la momentul în care au fost formulate.
POTENTIAL AID TO AIRLINES USING THE AIRPORT THROUGH THE DIFFERENTIATION OF AIRPORT CHARGES AND POTENTIAL AID TO RYANAIR AND AMS THROUGH THE MARKETING AGREEMENT
Dintr-un studiu realizat în 2008, reiese, de fapt, că aceste costuri au fost subestimate, dar se miza pe faptul că rotațiile suplimentare generate de această măsură ar antrena totuși un beneficiu net începând cu 2010.
In order to ascertain whether the resources of the CCIMP constitute State resources, the Commission notes that a public administrative institution (établissement public à caractère administratif) constitutes an independent public body that, nevertheless, forms part of the organisation of the public administration and is therefore subject to very close supervision by other public authorities.
Din toate aceste elemente, rezultă că CCIMP a acționat ca un investitor prudent în economia de piață luând decizia de a acorda gratuitatea staționării pe timp de noapte pe aeroportul din Marsilia Provence.
Moreover, the general budget of the CCIs is funded by tax revenue collected from companies entered in the trade and companies register.
Finanțarea activităților de marketing
In addition, the CCIs come under the category of public authorities pursuant to Commission Directive 2000/52/EC [74], they constitute contracting authorities pursuant to Directive 2004/18/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council [75] or, as applicable, contracting entities pursuant to Directive 2004/17/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council [76], and their purchasing is subject to public procurement procedures.
Acesta nu ar fi determinat, potrivit Franței, decât plata a [mai puțin de 300000]* EUR companiei BMI baby.
According to General Court case-law, those arrangements are part of the internal organization of the public sector, and the existence of rules for ensuring that a public body remains independent of other authorities does not call into question the principle itself of the public nature of that body.
Franța a susținut că suma respectivă, în măsura în care aceasta ar constitui ajutor de stat, este reglementată de Regulamentul (CE) nr. 1998/2006.
Community law cannot permit the rules on State aid to be circumvented merely through the creation of autonomous institutions charged with allocating aid [77].
În 2012, compania BMI baby și-a încetat activitatea.
Under French law, the CCIs are intermediate state authorities.
Comisia concluzionează că acest ajutor este un ajutor de minimis.
Their acts are therefore, in any event, imputable to the French State, as they form an integral part of the latter.
Fixarea tarifului aferent taxei pentru pasageri pentru terminalul MP2
As the CCIs form part of the public administration and are subject to close supervision by other public authorities (see recital 10), the Commission considers that the decisions of these public entities are necessarily imputable to the State.
Planul financiar pentru planul de afaceri din noiembrie 2004, realizat anterior luării deciziei de a demara construcția terminalului MP2, demonstra că era vorba de o soluție care putea rezolva problemele de congestie, oferind, în același timp, perspective mai bune de rentabilitate.
Their situation therefore differs from that of public undertakings.
Luând în considerare subvenția primită pentru construirea terminalului MP2, planul de afaceri pe 15 ani întocmit în momentul luării deciziei de construire a terminalului MP2 indica profitabilitatea acestui proiect pentru aeroport.
In the case of the CCIs, imputability does not need to be established, as was the case in the Stardust Marine judgment, on the basis of another public authority associated with the decision-making process of a public undertaking, as also confirmed by the numerous public interest tasks entrusted to them by law.
Două actualizări ale planului de afaceri au fost elaborate în 2005 și 2006, înainte de punerea în funcțiune a terminalului MP2.
Furthermore, even if the Commission had to establish the imputability to the State of CCIMP decisions while regarding the CCIMP as a simple public undertaking, it would have a number of factors allowing this imputability to be established.
Astfel, fiecare dintre aceste planuri de afaceri confirma faptul că construirea terminalului MP2 reprezenta cea mai bună soluție pentru a oferi cele mai bune perspective de rentabilitate.
First of all, the CCIMP is subject to close administrative supervision, as explained in Section 2.1.2.
Actualizarea planului de afaceri din 2006, realizată înainte de stabilirea tarifelor aferente taxelor pe terminalul MP2, ține seama nu numai de reducerile de taxe pentru rutele noi și pentru staționare, ci și pentru măsuri de marketing.
In particular, the CCIMP's decisions on airport charges must be approved by the supervisory authority in order to be enforceable.
Acest lucru demonstrează, de asemenea, rentabilitatea pentru aeroport a terminalului MP2, luând în considerare reducerile de taxe.
Moreover, the Cocoéco that consists of the Departmental Council of Bouches-du-Rhône, the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Regional Council and the Marseille Provence Métropole Urban Community is consulted on each occasion, prior to the introduction of new airport charges, and approves those charges.
Calcularea marjei financiare per zbor după atribuirea reducerilor de taxe și după măsurile de marketing (metoda costului total):
It is therefore highly unlikely that the Cocoéco would not also have approved the decision to sign the marketing services agreement with AMS, or at least that it was not involved in that decision.
Tabelul 10
Although it may not have given a formal opinion on that agreement, it approves the overall balance of the airport's resources, by supervising the airport charges.
Avion B737-67 tone – GA:5 – capacitate:189 de persoane
The decisions on airport charges and on the marketing services agreement signed with AMS should in fact be assessed together.
Anul 1
Moreover, the CCIMP has concluded several partnership agreements [78] with the authorities concerned so that the latter assume financial responsibility for some of the programmes of investment in the airport infrastructure.
Anul 2
In return for this financial participation, Marseille Provence Airport has undertaken to pursue a dynamic commercial policy designed to maximise development of national and international air routes [79].
Anul 3
The latter can therefore ask the airport to provide it with studies on the development of air traffic and on the prospects for developing new routes.
VENIT
Furthermore, as a general point, it has been maintained by both France and the CCIMP that the development strategy adopted by Marseille Provence Airport had objectives of general interest involving the economic dynamism of the surrounding region and the creation of jobs.
COST
These are objectives in which the local authorities have a direct interest, as indicated in the agreements concluded with the CCIMP [80].
TRAFIC INTERN
It also appears, in the light of recital 10, that the CCIs are integrated within the structure of the public administration, that they pursue their economic activities under very special conditions that are in no way comparable with the conditions for private operators, that their legal status is governed by public law, and that the supervision of their management by the public authorities is extensive.
Aterizare
In the light of the above, it must therefore be concluded that the airport charging measures and the marketing services agreement concluded with AMS were financed through State resources and that their financing is imputable to the State.

SELECTIVE ADVANTAGE FOR THE AIRLINES OPERATING AT MARSEILLE PROVENCE AIRPORT

In order to ascertain whether a State measure constitutes aid, it must be determined whether the undertaking received an economic advantage enabling it to avoid having to bear costs that would normally have had to be met out of its own financial resources or whether it received an advantage that it would not have received under normal market conditions.

The Commission points out in this respect that regional development considerations cannot be taken into account when applying the market economy operator test.

Application of the benchmarking approach
subtotal aeronautic
Ryanair maintains that, in order to rule out the existence of an economic advantage that may not have been obtained under normal market conditions, the charges in the 1999 agreements must be compared with airport charges applied at other European airports to low-cost airlines.
Magazine
The Commission does not rule out this approach on principle.
Parcuri de automobile
However, the identification of a benchmark requires first that a sufficient number of comparable airports providing comparable services under normal market conditions can be selected.
TOTAL per zbor
In this respect, the Commission notes that, when the 1999 agreements were signed, EU airports were regarded by many as forming part of a public administration pursuing social and regional objectives and were therefore funded by public authorities, whatever their profitability.
Marjă înainte de măsurile de marketing
In fact, a majority of EU airports is still currently benefiting from public funding to cover investment and operating costs.
măsuri de marketing
Therefore, the Commission considers that these airports' charges tend not to be determined with regard to market considerations, and in particular sound ex ante profitability prospects, but essentially with regard to social or regional considerations.
Marjă după măsurile de marketing
The Commission further notes that, even though some airports are privately owned or operated without social or regional considerations, their charges may be heavily influenced by the charges applied by the majority of publicly subsidised airport operators, as these latter charges are taken into account by airlines during their negotiations with the privately owned or operated airports.
TRAFIC UE
In the present case, the airports used as benchmarks received public funding before their privatisation, and even afterwards.
Tabelul 11
Liverpool Airport has benefited in particular from co-financing under the EU Structural Funds, and the loss-making Prestwick Airport was recently renationalised for the symbolic sum of GBP 1.

Moreover, it is not clear whether the cost of the existing infrastructure was taken into account when these reference airports were privatised.
Tabelul 12
Lastly, the comparability of the figures in the Oxera study is limited by the fact that the charges paid at Marseille Provence Airport do not take account of the marketing agreement with AMS, whereas the charges indicated for all the other airports are net of any contribution by the airport to Ryanair's marketing activities.
Analiza rentabilității (în mii EUR la valoarea curentă)
Under those circumstances, the Commission is unable to identify an appropriate benchmark for establishing a genuine market price for the services provided by the airport operator.

Profitability analysis
Rata internă de rentabilitate
In the absence of a clearly defined benchmark, the Commission considers that the ex ante incremental profitability analysis is the relevant criterion for assessing the agreements proposed or concluded by airport operators with individual airlines.
Total numerar cu VNC la sfârșitul anului 2021 fără TTR
In this context, the measures under investigation form part of the airport's overall strategy leading to profitability, at least in the long term.
Total numerar cu VNC la sfârșitul anului 2021 cu TTR
The Commission considers that setting different charges is a normal commercial practice.
FLUXUL DE NUMERAR DIFERENȚIAL
However, this practice must be justified by commercial considerations in order to satisfy the market economy operator test [81].
Total numerar cu VNC la sfârșitul anului 2021 actualizat fără TTR
France argues that Marseille Provence Airport acted rationally, and supports its statement with the airport's ex ante calculations.
Total numerar cu VNC la sfârșitul anului 2021 actualizat cu TTR
In order to assess this criterion, the Commission will take account of both the aeronautical revenue (airport charges) and the revenue from the airport's non-aeronautical activity (shops, car parks, etc.).

Reductions in the charges for creating new routes
Investitorul prudent va lua în considerare toate veniturile provenite din activități aeronautice și non-aeronautice, ținând cont, în același timp, de elasticitatea cererii de trafic în raport cu stabilirea tarifului aferent taxei aeronautice vizate, în vederea determinării rentabilității proiectului de terminal cu servicii simplificate și stabilirea tarifului corespunzător.
The CCIMP introduced two different schemes of reduced charges to encourage the creation of new air routes.
Decalajul dintre nivelul tarifului taxei pentru pasageri și costul serviciilor pentru pasageri, care este acoperit de veniturile obținute din activități non-aeronautice nu constituie, așadar, un avantaj acordat companiilor aeriene, ci este o consecință a optimizării subiacente a operatorului care urmărește, dimpotrivă, să își rentabilizeze proiectul de investiție.
On 6 December 2004 the Cocoéco voted to create a reduction of 90 % in the first year and 50 % in the second year on the landing, lighting and parking charges for passenger flights.
Tarifele aferente taxei pe pasager (excluzând biroul de înregistrare) aplicabile în cazul terminalului MP2 sunt prezentate în tabelul 13.
This scheme applied from 15 February 2005 to 31 July 2009.
Tabelul 13
As regards this first measure, France maintains that an ex ante profitability study of 8 December 2004 estimated, on the one hand, the annual reduction for existing routes, or for routes that would have been created without this measure, at EUR […]* and, on the other hand, the additional costs of supplying crews and car parking at an extra EUR […]* per year.
Taxă pe pasager pentru zboruri în interiorul UE (EUR)
Only 20 % of the new routes were presumed to continue for a third year, equivalent to an amount of EUR […]*.
Taxă pe pasager pentru zboruri în afara UE (EUR)
The revenue from new routes created was estimated at EUR […]*.
Inițial
The assumptions made in the original study seemed realistic at that time.
Retroactiv
Given that the airport had a positive margin and as this measure did not require any initial investment, the Commission concludes that it satisfies the market economy operator test.
În 2009, tarifele au fost ajustate în urma anulării tarifelor de către Consiliul de Stat.
As regards the reduction applicable from 15 February 2005 to 31 July 2009, France has produced the Cocoéco meeting records of 14 September 2009 according to which, on the one hand, 83,1 % of the reductions benefited routes that continued after the end of the reductions and, on the other hand, the modulation did not involve any capacity investment.
Decizia Cocoéco din 18 februarie 2009 explică mai în detaliu metodele de calcul care au dus la stabilirea acestor tarife, pe baza costurilor și veniturilor alocate pentru fiecare terminal, astfel cum se prevede în studiul realizat de societatea Mazars în 2008 și care se referă la următorii șase ani.
Lastly, the economic impact study on the modulation proposed during that Cocoéco meeting concluded that, for every passenger taking a flight benefiting from the modulated charges, the average margin over the three years that the measure applied was positive:
În cadrul acestui studiu și pe baza previziunilor pe care le sprijină, costurile luate în considerare sunt costurile aferente clădirilor atribuite fiecărui terminal, costurile de întreținere și de mentenanță și costurile de exploatare proporțional cu alocarea acestora pentru serviciile pentru pasageri și utilizarea lor pentru fiecare terminal.
for mp1: EUR […]* – EUR […]* = EUR […]*
Veniturile luate în considerare sunt atât venituri provenite din taxele de aeroport (pasageri și birouri de înregistrare), cât și venituri comerciale (magazine și parcări) generate pe platformă și alocate fiecărui terminal.
for mp2: EUR […]* – EUR […]* = EUR […]*
Se pare că tarifele aferente taxei pe pasager au fost fixate astfel încât veniturile aeronautice să acopere aceeași marjă pentru serviciile pentru pasageri pe terminalul MP2 și pe terminalul MP1, și anume [între 50 % și 80 % pentru anii 2007, 2008, 2009 și 2010] *.
This result showed that the initial ex ante calculations were in fact very conservative.
Din datele financiare care figurează în decizia din 18 februarie 2009 reiese că, dacă se iau în considerare atât venitul din taxele de aeroport, cât și veniturile comerciale alocate serviciilor pentru pasageri, acestea acoperă costurile acestei funcții la terminalul MP2 [între 100 % și 140 % pentru anii 2007, 2008, 2009 și 2010]*, ținând cont de tariful aferent taxei pentru pasageri stabilit în decizia din 25 mai 2009.
In particular, well over 20 % of the new routes continued after the end of the initial reductions.
Tarifele aferente taxei pe pasager pe terminalul MP2 au fost stabilite pe baza unui studiu financiar prealabil.
Consequently, when the business plans were updated and subsequent studies were carried out, the assumptions were updated to take account of the initial experience gained with this measure.
Acesta din urmă a luat în considerare toate reducerile aplicabile.
Based on this experience, a second incentive scheme for new routes was adopted on 18 September 2009 and came into force on 1 February 2010.
Potrivit studiului financiar, taxele pentru fiecare terminal trebuiau să acopere costurile aferente.
This scheme granted a reduction of 60 % in the first year of operation of a new route, 45 % in the second year and 20 % in the third year.
Studiul a concluzionat că VAN era pozitivă.
It also aimed to generate a profit margin.
În timp ce noile tarife retroactive sunt calculate astfel încât să acopere toate costurile aeroportului, după corectare în vederea repartizării între terminale a anumitor taxe comune, tarifele inițiale acopereau deja costurile marginale legate în mod direct de sosirea companiilor aeriene și a fiecărui pasager suplimentar.
Based on the above calculations, the profitability of this second scheme was also plausible.
În consecință, era prevăzut, în orice moment, ca tarifele aplicate companiilor aeriene să acopere cel puțin costurile marginale legate de utilizarea aeroportului de către companie.
This scheme was gradually withdrawn and finally ended on 31 October 2011.
În plus, în planul de afaceri inițial care a condus la decizia de a construi terminalul MP2, aeroportul intenționa să ajungă la o valoare actualizată netă pozitivă.
The Commission therefore concludes that this measure also satisfies the market economy operator test, as it was expected to make additional profits.
Înainte de orice nouă modificare a tarifelor, aeroportul a realizat estimări plauzibile, conform cărora măsurile ar avea o contribuție pozitivă la profitabilitatea aeroportului.
Free overnight parking
Prin urmare, Comisia consideră că decizia de stabilire a tarifelor pentru terminalul MP2 respectă principiul investitorului prudent în economia de piață.
From 1 March 2005 to date, parking between 22.00 and 06.00 has been free for passenger aircraft, for five weekly frequencies to the same destination during a minimum IATA season and for aircraft parking for at least six consecutive hours between 22.00 and 06.00.
Același lucru este valabil și pentru decizia din 25 mai 2009 de stabilire a tarifelor aplicabile pentru anii 2006-2008 și, începând cu data de 1 august 2009.
This measure applies in a non-discriminatory manner to both terminals and to all airlines.
