The above figures took into account the rent paid by Airpro to Finavia for the use of T2 and the landing charges as well as other airport charges for the services provided to airlines using T2.
Navedene številke vključujejo najemnino, ki jo družba Airpro plačuje družbi Finavia za uporabo T2, ter pristajalne pristojbine in druge letališke pristojbine za zagotavljanje storitev letalskim družbam, ki uporabljajo T2.
As regards Airpro, Finland explained further that it was a limited company and legally distinct from Finavia.
Finska je v zvezi z družbo Airpro pojasnila, da gre za družbo z omejeno odgovornostjo, ki je pravno ločena od družbe Finavia.
The following table summarises the actual financial results of Airpro’s operations at TMP airport: […]
V naslednji preglednici je povzetek dejanskih finančnih rezultatov dejavnosti družbe Airpro na letališču TMP: […].
Airpro’s financial results at TMP airport included costs, such as the rent for T2 at TMP airport, Airpro’s own costs for personnel and equipment, and also the cost of services provided by Finavia.
Finančni rezultati družbe Airpro na letališču TMP so vključevali stroške, kot je najemnina za T2 na letališču TMP, stroške družbe Airpro za osebje in opremo ter tudi stroške storitev, ki jih opravlja družba Finavia.
The financial statements included revenues, such as the all-inclusive charge paid by Ryanair, parking fees and other commercial revenues.
Računovodski izkazi so vključevali prihodke, kot so pavšalna pristojbina, ki jo plačuje Ryanair, parkirnine in drugi komercialni prihodki.
Consequently, Finland argued that Finavia and Airpro acted as market economy investors when they decided to implement the low-cost strategy and convert the cargo hangar into a low-cost passenger terminal.
Finska je zato trdila, da sta družbi Finavia in Airpro, ko sta se odločili za izvajanje strategije zniževanja stroškov in preoblikovanje tovornega hangarja v nizkocenovni potniški terminal, ravnali kot vlagatelja v tržnem gospodarstvu.
Finland argued that even if the financing of the refurbishment of T2 were considered State aid, it would be compatible on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) of the TFEU, as it complied with the compatibility criteria set out in the 2005 Aviation Guidelines.
Tudi če bi se financiranje prenove T2 štelo za državno pomoč, bi bilo po navedbah Finske združljivo na podlagi člena 107(3)(c) PDEU, ker je izpolnjevalo merila združljivosti iz letalskih smernic iz leta 2005.
Finland argued further that the measures could be considered to meet objectives of general interest, which in its view related not only to the general-interest nature of airport operations, but also to the diversification of traffic connections in the region in a manner that met the needs of the residents and society.
Finska je nadalje trdila, da bi se lahko štelo, da ukrepi dosegajo cilje splošnega interesa, kar po njenem mnenju ne utemeljuje le narava splošnega interesa letaliških dejavnosti, ampak tudi diverzifikacija prometnih povezav v regiji, ki izpolnjuje potrebe prebivalcev in družbe.
According to Finland, therefore, the alterations to T2 were proportional to their purpose and to the result achieved.
Zato so bile spremembe T2 po navedbah Finske sorazmerne z njihovim namenom in doseženimi rezultati.
In addition, Finland stated that the operations of airports had special characteristics that needed to be taken into account.
Poleg tega je Finska navedla, da so imele dejavnosti letališč posebne značilnosti, ki jih je bilo treba upoštevati.
For example TMP airport helped to improve mobility at more congested airports in accordance with the Union’s objective.
Letališče TMP je v skladu s ciljem Unije na primer pomagalo izboljšati mobilnost na prezasedenih letališčih.
Operating TMP airport contributed to regionally balanced development in a sparsely populated country such as Finland.
Delovanje letališča TMP je v redko poseljeni državi, kot je Finska, prispevalo k regionalno uravnoteženemu razvoju.
In this regard, it was particularly important to safeguard traffic connections from the more remote regions in Finland to Europe, since other forms of transport were not a viable alternative.
V zvezi s tem je bilo zlasti pomembno zavarovati prometne povezave iz bolj oddaljenih finskih regij v Evropo, ker druge oblike prevoza niso bile izvedljive.
The costs incurred for the construction of the terminal were proportional to the purpose as well as necessary.
Stroški, ki so nastali pri gradnji terminala, so bili sorazmerni z namenom in tudi nujni.
On the basis of the business plans and the actual figures, the infrastructure in question had sufficient medium-term prospects for use.
Zadevna infrastruktura je imela na podlagi poslovnih načrtov in dejanskih podatkov zadostne srednjeročne možnosti za uporabo.
According to Finland the infrastructure in question did not affect trade to an extent contrary to the interests of the Union.
Po navedbah Finske zadevna infrastruktura na trgovino ni vplivala v obsegu, ki bi bil v nasprotju z interesi Unije.
TMP airport was small and therefore the impact of the measures at Union level was not significant.
Letališče TMP je majhno, zato učinek ukrepov na ravni Unije ni bil velik.
In addition, the benefits of the measures for the region outweighed any negative impact at Union level.
Poleg tega so ugodnosti, ki so jih regiji zagotovili ukrepi, odtehtale vsakršen negativen učinek na ravni Unije.
The lease agreement between Finavia and Airpro for T2 at TMP airport
Zakupna pogodba med družbama Finavia in Airpro za T2 na letališču TMP
Finland indicated that on 23 February 2003 Finavia concluded a lease agreement with Airpro concerning T2 for the period between 1 April 2003 and 31 March 2013 (referred to also as ‘the lease agreement’).
Finska je navedla, da je družba Finavia 23. februarja 2003 z družbo Airpro sklenila zakupno pogodbo v zvezi s T2 za obdobje od 1. aprila 2003 do 31. marca 2013 (v nadaljnjem besedilu tudi: zakupna pogodba).
Even though Finavia originally paid for the costs of the refurbishment, Airpro would reimburse Finavia for these costs in its rent.
Čeprav je stroške prenove prvotno krila družba Finavia, ji je družba Airpro te stroške povrnila z najemnino.
Finland also provided a copy of the lease agreement.
Finska je predložila tudi izvod zakupne pogodbe.
Pursuant to the lease agreement, Airpro pays a monthly rent amounting to […] plus […] VAT for the use of the facilities.
Glede na zakupno pogodbo plačuje družba Airpro za uporabo objektov mesečno najemnino […] in […] DDV.
Accordingly, the rent including VAT totals […] a month.
Najemnina skupaj z DDV torej znaša […] na mesec.
The agreement provides that in addition to the basic rent the rent also includes the costs incurred for turning the cargo hangar into a low-cost passenger terminal, plus the related interest.
Pogodba določa, da najemnina poleg osnovnega zneska vključuje tudi stroške, ki so nastali zaradi preoblikovanja tovornega hangarja v nizkocenovni potniški terminal, in s tem povezane obresti.
Finland indicated that at the time of concluding the lease agreement, the alterations to T2 were still ongoing and the refurbishment costs of the terminal had to be estimated in order to determine the amount of rent.
Finska je navedla, da so ob sklenitvi zakupne pogodbe še vedno potekale spremembe T2 in je bilo treba za določitev zneska najemnine oceniti stroške prenove terminala.
The costs were estimated at EUR 700000 and their monthly impact on the rent was expected to be approximately […].
Stroški so bili ocenjeni na 700000 EUR, pri čemer je njihov pričakovani mesečni učinek na najemnino znašal približno […].
In addition to the estimated refurbishment costs Finavia estimated that the costs of additional works and arrangements made after the commencement of the operations of T2 would be approximately […] and their monthly impact on the rent would be […].
Poleg ocenjenih stroškov prenove je družba Finavia ocenila, da bodo stroški dodatnih del in ureditev, izvedenih po začetku delovanja T2, znašali približno […], njihov mesečni učinek na najemnino pa bi znašal […].
In accordance with the calculations above, Airpro compensated Finavia for the costs incurred by the alterations to T2 with a monthly rent amounting to […].
V skladu z navedenimi izračuni je družba Airpro stroške za preoblikovanje T2 povrnila družbi Finavia z mesečno najemnino v znesku […].
Finland argued that the monthly rent paid by Airpro was not below the market price.
Finska je trdila, da mesečna najemnina, ki jo je plačevala družba Airpro, ni bila pod tržno ceno.
The rent paid by Airpro was actually higher than the rent paid by the previous tenant, DHL.
Najemnina, ki jo je plačevala družba Airpro, je bila pravzaprav višja od najemnine, ki jo je plačeval prejšnji najemnik, tj. družba DHL.
DHL paid a monthly rent amounting to […] excluding VAT for the use of the facilities, which corresponded to approximately […] [10].
Družba DHL je za uporabo objektov plačevala mesečno najemnino […] brez DDV, kar je približno […] [10].
The share of VAT amounted to […], so the total monthly rent including VAT was […], which corresponded to approximately […].
Delež DDV je znašal […], tako je mesečna najemnina skupaj z DDV znašala […], kar je približno […].
Finland noted further that without the implementation of the low-cost strategy and conversion of the cargo hangar into a low-cost terminal, T2 might have remained vacant, which would have encumbered the finances of TMP airport.
Finska je nadalje navedla, da se T2 brez izvajanja strategije zniževanja stroškov in preoblikovanja tovornega hangarja v nizkocenovni terminal morda ne bi več uporabljal, kar bi finančno obremenilo letališče TMP.
The implementation of the low-cost strategy by Airpro and the agreement of 3 April 2003 between Airpro and Ryanair
Izvajanje strategije zniževanja stroškov s strani družbe Airpro ter sporazum med družbama Airpro in Ryanair z dne 3. aprila 2003
As regards the implementation of the low-cost strategy by Airpro, Finland explained that discussions with airlines had started earlier.
V zvezi z izvajanjem strategije zniževanja stroškov s strani družbe Airpro je Finska pojasnila, da so se pred tem začele razprave z letalskimi družbami.
There had been ongoing discussions for example with Ryanair for a few years before the decision was taken to implement a low-cost strategy at TMP airport.
Nekaj let pred sprejetjem odločitve o izvajanju strategije zniževanja stroškov na letališču TMP so na primer potekale razprave z družbo Ryanair.
According to Finland the letter sent by Airpro to a number of airlines inviting them to consider starting up operations at the low-cost terminal was only one part of the marketing strategy for T2.
Po navedbah Finske je bil dopis, ki ga je družba Airpro poslala številnim letalskim družbam in v katerem jih je pozvala, naj razmislijo o možnosti, da bi začele delovati na nizkocenovnem terminalu, le en del tržne strategije za T2.
Finland provided a copy of the marketing letter.
Finska je predložila izvod omenjenega dopisa.
The letter indicates the charges applicable at T2, such as the charge for ground handling and terminal use, the amount of which depends on the aircraft type used.
V dopisu so navedene veljavne pristojbine za T2, na primer pristojbina za zemeljsko oskrbo in uporabo terminala, katere znesek je odvisen od uporabljene vrste letala.
In addition to the charges applicable at T2, the airlines are to pay the normal landing, terminal navigation and security charges.
Poleg veljavnih pristojbin za T2 morajo letalske družbe plačati običajne pristajalne pristojbine ter pristojbine za navigacijske storitve na terminalu in varovanje.
Finland provided a copy of the agreement with a period of validity of […] concluded between Airpro and Ryanair on 3 April 2003 (‘the agreement’).
Finska je predložila izvod sporazuma z obdobjem veljavnosti […], ki sta ga družbi Airpro in Ryanair sklenili 3. aprila 2003 (v nadaljnjem besedilu: sporazum).
The agreement sets out the operational and financial conditions under which Ryanair is to establish and operate commercial flights to and from T2 at TMP airport.
V sporazumu so določeni operativni in finančni pogoji, pod katerimi družba Ryanair vzpostavlja in upravlja komercialne lete na T2 na letališču TMP in z njega.
The agreement took effect on the day after the signature of that agreement (i.e. 4 April 2003) and will end on […].
Sporazum je začel veljati dan potem, ko je bil podpisan (tj. 4. aprila 2003), in preneha veljati dne […].
As summarised in the tables below the all-inclusive charge depends on the daily frequencies of Ryanair at the airport and on the year of the agreement: […]
Kot je povzeto v spodnjih preglednicah, je pavšalna pristojbina odvisna od dnevne frekvence družbe Ryanair na letališču in od leta sporazuma: […].
In the agreement, Ryanair commits itself to commencing operations at TMP airport with […] daily turnarounds.
Družba Ryanair se v sporazumu zavezuje, da bo dejavnosti na letališču TMP začela z […] obračanji letal na dan.
Furthermore Ryanair agrees to give […] notice of any reduction in the number of daily turnarounds at the airport.
Poleg tega se družba Ryanair strinja, da bo […] prej obvestila o kakršnem koli zmanjšanju dnevnega števila obračanj letal na letališču.
Pursuant to the agreement Ryanair expected to generate approximately […] departing passengers at TMP airport during the first 12 months and approximately […] departing passengers during the following 12 months.
Glede na sporazum je družba Ryanair predvidevala, da bo v prvih 12 mesecih doseženo število potnikov, ki bodo odleteli z letališča TMP, približno […], v naslednjih 12 mesecih pa približno […].
Airpro will operate a passenger service desk in a prime location in the main airport terminal (T1) and will provide reservations facility for Ryanair’s passengers.
Družba Airpro bo na najboljši lokaciji glavnega letališkega terminala (T1) upravljala pisarno za potniške storitve, zagotavljala pa bo tudi storitve rezervacije letov za potnike družbe Ryanair.
Pursuant to the agreement Ryanair pays a commission to Airpro at the rate of […] for all Ryanair flights (excluding taxes, fees and other charges) sold by Airpro and paid by debit/credit card.
V skladu s sporazumom družba Ryanair za vse svoje lete (brez davkov in pristojbin), ki jih je prodala družba Airpro in ki so bili plačani z debetno/kreditno kartico, plačuje družbi Airpro provizijo v višini […].
The agreement also provides for arrangements during the necessary maintenance of the runway at TMP airport during summer 2003, when the airport will be closed to all traffic.
V sporazumu so predvidene tudi ureditve med nujnimi vzdrževalnimi deli na vzletno-pristajalni stezi na letališču TMP poleti 2003, ko je bilo letališče zaprto za ves promet.
During this period the traffic of TMP airport will be diverted to Pori airport and Airpro will arrange bus transportation for Ryanair’s passengers.
V tem obdobju je bil promet letališča TMP preusmerjen na letališče Pori, družba Airpro pa je za potnike družbe Ryanair organizirala avtobusni prevoz.
According to Finland the agreement between Airpro and Ryanair was on commercial terms and did not involve State aid.
Po navedbah Finske je sporazum med družbama Airpro in Ryanair temeljil na komercialnih pogojih in ni vključeval državne pomoči.
Other airlines had also had the possibility to agree with Airpro on similar contractual terms and conditions to those obtained by Ryanair.
Tudi druge letalske družbe so imele možnost, da z družbo Airpro sklenejo sporazum pod podobnimi pogodbenimi pogoji, kot so veljali za družbo Ryanair.
For example the marketing brochure The Case for Tampere-Pirkkala Airport, which had been prepared for the 2004 trade fair, highlighted the fact that T2 was open to all operators, as at that time the terminal still had capacity available for two more airlines.
Reklamna brošura o letališču Tampere-Pirkkala The Case for Tampere-Pirkkala Airport, ki je bila oblikovana za trgovinski sejem leta 2004, je na primer poudarila dejstvo, da je T2 odprt za vse prevoznike, saj je terminal takrat še vedno imel na voljo zmogljivost za dve dodatni letalski družbi.
Finland considered further that the charges paid by Ryanair at TMP airport were cost-based and generated an economic profit for Airpro’s and Finavia’s operations at TMP airport.
Finska tudi meni, da pristojbine, ki jih družba Ryanair plačuje na letališču TMP, temeljijo na stroških in ustvarjajo gospodarski dobiček za dejavnosti družb Airpro in Finavia na letališču TMP.
Airpro collected charges from Ryanair for services it provided and also for services provided by Finavia.
Družba Airpro je družbi Ryanair zaračunala pristojbine za storitve, ki ji jih je zagotovila, in tudi za storitve, ki jih je zagotovila družba Finavia.
Airpro subsequently disbursed to Finavia the charges resulting from Ryanair’s operations at the airport pursuant to Finavia’s Aeronautical Information Publication (‘AIP’) [13].
Družba Airpro je družbi Finavia naknadno izplačala pristojbine, ki so izhajale iz dejavnosti družbe Ryanair na letališču, v skladu z zbornikom letalskih informacij (v nadaljnjem besedilu: AIP) družbe Finavia [13].
Any differences in charges were based on the nature and scale of the services concerned.
Vse razlike v pristojbinah so temeljile na naravi in obsegu zadevnih storitev.
Finland indicated that all airlines using TMP airport paid the same charges for services of the same quality.
Finska je navedla, da so vse letalske družbe, ki so uporabljale letališče TMP, za storitve enake kakovosti plačevale enake pristojbine.
For instance, the passenger charge collected for the services provided at T2 depended on the quality of the services provided at the terminal.
Potniška taksa, zaračunana za storitve na T2, je bila na primer odvisna od kakovosti storitev, ki so se zagotavljale na terminalu.
Neither Finavia nor Airpro played any role in the collection of the passenger service charge marked on Ryanair’s air ticket, which was collected by Ryanair from its passengers.
Pri zaračunavanju pristojbine za potniške storitve, ki je označena na vozovnici družbe Ryanair in ki jo ta družba zaračunava svojim potnikom, družbi Finavia in Airpro nista imeli nobene vloge.
Contrary to the allegations of Blue1, Ryanair was not exempted from paying the passenger charge.
V nasprotju z navedbami družbe Blue1 družba Ryanair ni bila izvzeta iz plačevanja potniške pristojbine.
The fact that Airpro’s operations at T2 were profitable was evidence that Ryanair had to pay a charge for the services provided by Airpro.
Dejstvo, da so bile dejavnosti družbe Airpro na T2 dobičkonosne, dokazuje, da je morala družba Ryanair plačevati pristojbino za storitve, ki jih je opravljala družba Airpro.
Finavia collected the following charges from Ryanair through Airpro at TMP airport, amounting to […] in total:
Družba Finavia je družbi Ryanair prek družbe Airpro na letališču TMP zaračunala naslednje pristojbine, ki skupaj znašajo […]:
landing charge [14]: […]air navigation services charge: […]
pristajalna pristojbina [14]: […]pristojbina za navigacijske službe zračnega prometa: […]
As regards the air traffic navigation charges, Finland stated that they depended on the weight of the aircraft, the length of the flight and the content of the services used.
V zvezi s pristojbinami za navigacijske službe zračnega prometa je Finska navedla, da so bile odvisne od teže letala, dolžine leta in vsebine uporabljenih storitev.
Finavia’s profits also included an annual route charge [15], which amounted to approximately […] in 2006 and would increase with the additional frequencies operated by Ryanair.
Dobiček družbe Finavia je vključeval tudi letno pristojbino za progo [15], ki je leta 2006 znašala približno […] in ki se bo povečala z dodatnimi leti družbe Ryanair.
Finland explained further that in 2005 the operating benefit from Ryanair’s operations at TMP airport totalled […].
Finska je nadalje pojasnila, da je operativni dobiček od dejavnosti družbe Ryanair na letališču TMP leta 2005 skupaj znašal […].
Finally, Finland argued that pursuant to the agreement, Ryanair had also committed itself to increasing traffic and to meeting the passenger targets indicated in the agreement.
Nazadnje je Finska navedla, da se je družba Ryanair v skladu s sporazumom tudi zavezala, da bo povečala promet in dosegla cilje v zvezi s številom potnikom, navedene v sporazumu.
OBSERVATIONS FROM THIRD PARTIES
PRIPOMBE TRETJIH STRANI
The Commission has received observations from four interested parties.
Komisija je prejela pripombe štirih zainteresiranih strani.
Ryanair began its observations dated 16 November 2007 by stating that in its opinion the initiation of a formal investigation procedure was unfair and unnecessary.
Družba Ryanair je na začetku svojih pripomb z dne 16. novembra 2007 navedla mnenje, da je bil začetek formalnega postopka preiskave nepošten in nepotreben.
It also stated that it regretted that the Commission had not given Ryanair the possibility to participate in the preliminary examination.
Navedla je tudi, da obžaluje, da ji Komisija ni dala možnosti sodelovanja pri predhodni preiskavi.
On the substance of the case Ryanair was of the opinion that the Commission should have based itself on standard commercial arrangements and decided that the agreement complied with the market economy operator principle and hence did not involve State aid.
V zvezi z vsebino zadeve je družba Ryanair menila, da bi morala Komisija upoštevati standardne poslovne dogovore in sprejeti odločitev, da je sporazum skladen z načelom nosilca dejavnosti v tržnem gospodarstvu in zato ne vključuje državne pomoči.
As in Ryanair’s opinion both Finavia and Airpro benefitted from its presence at TMP airport, both were acting as market economy operators and the financing of T2 was void of any aid.
Po mnenju družbe Ryanair je njena prisotnost na letališču TMP koristila tako družbi Finavia kot tudi družbi Airpro, zato sta obe ravnali kot nosilca dejavnosti v tržnem gospodarstvu in financiranje T2 ni vključevalo nikakršne pomoči.
As regards the development of the low-cost terminal at TMP airport, Ryanair explained that there were ongoing projects to differentiate services provided by airports in the Union in order to serve the needs of low-cost airlines and their passengers.
V zvezi z razvojem nizkocenovnega terminala na letališču TMP je družba Ryanair pojasnila, da so potekali projekti za spremembo storitev, ki jih zagotavljajo letališča v Uniji, tako da bi se izpolnile potrebe nizkocenovnih letalskih družb in njihovih potnikov.
The differentiated level of services provided by airports resulted in differentiated charges paid by airlines.
Zaradi različnih ravni storitev, ki so jih zagotavljala letališča, so se razlikovale tudi pristojbine, ki so jih plačevale letalske družbe.
TMP airport was among the first to follow the model of differentiated service levels at the same airport.
Letališče TMP je bilo med prvimi, ki so uvedla model različnih ravni storitev na istem letališču.
Ryanair confirmed that the airport operator Finavia had decided on the development of T2 on the basis of a sound business plan that was swiftly implemented and resulted in an increase in Finavia’s revenue.
Družba Ryanair je potrdila, da je družba Finavia, ki upravlja letališče, sprejela odločitev o razvoju T2 na podlagi dobrega poslovnega načrta, ki je bil hitro izveden in je povečal prihodke družbe Finavia.
Therefore, Ryanair was of the opinion that the development of the low-cost terminal did not contain any elements of State aid towards Finavia’s activity at TMP airport.
Zato družba Ryanair meni, da razvoj nizkocenovnega terminala ni vključeval nobenih elementov državne pomoči za dejavnosti družbe Finavia na letališču TMP.
With regard to the management of T2, Ryanair explained that competition between terminals at the same airport resulted in improved efficiency and reduced costs.
V zvezi z upravljanjem T2 je družba Ryanair pojasnila, da se je zaradi konkurence med terminaloma na istem letališču povečala učinkovitost, stroški pa so se zmanjšali.
