Expected Nominal Result
Letališka infrastruktura je v lasti organa ENAC, ki z njo upravlja neposredno ali pa upravljanje prek koncesij prenese na tretje strani.
In contrast, the agreements with Volare and Alitalia could have been expected to lead to a positive discounted result.
V Italiji so se običajno uporabljali štirje modeli upravljanja letališč: (i) letališča, s katerimi je neposredno upravljala država, ki je bila odgovorna za izgradnjo in vzdrževanje vse letališke infrastrukture, je nosila vse stroške in zadržala ves prihodek; (ii) letališča, s katerimi se je upravljalo na podlagi začasne koncesije; v tem primeru je lahko upravljavec letališča na podlagi začasnega dovoljenja upravljal z letališko infrastrukturo in zadržal ves prihodek od poslovnih dejavnosti; (iii) letališča, s katerimi se je upravljalo na podlagi delne koncesije; v tem primeru je upravljavec letališča zadržal vse prihodke od uporabe potniških in tovornih terminalov in glavnih letaliških storitev (npr. oskrbe), država pa je prek organa ENAC zadržala ves prihodek od letaliških pristojbin (pristojbine za pristanek in vzlet, pristojbine za parkiranje letala in pristojbine za vkrcanje potnikov); (iv) letališča, s katerimi se je upravljalo na podlagi celovite koncesije; v tem primeru je bil upravljavec letališča do 40 let odgovoren za upravljanje vse infrastrukture (vključno z nadzorovanim delom letališča) in zagotavljanje vseh letaliških storitev, pobral pa je tudi ves prihodek od letaliških dejavnosti.
Therefore, in concluding those agreements, So.Ge.A.AL did not grant an economic advantage to those carriers.
Organ ENAC lahko od leta 2007 imetnike delne koncesije (vključno s tistimi, ki so le začasno pooblaščeni za upravljanje infrastrukture) pooblasti za upravljanje letališča na podlagi celovitega upravljanja, pri čemer omeji pravico do uporabe prihodkov od pravic uporabnikov na nujne ukrepe, ki so potrebni, da lahko upravljavec letališča opravlja svojo dejavnost, kot je določeno v akcijskem načrtu (Piano di interventi).
Based on the profitability analysis submitted by Italy of the agreements concluded by So.Ge.A.AL with Alitalia and Volare, the Commission is satisfied that it would have been rational for a MEO guided by profitability prospects to accept the terms of those agreements at the date at which they were signed.
Medministrski odlok št. 125 T za dodelitev koncesije družbi So.Ge.A.AL je bil objavljen 3. avgusta 2007.
Therefore those agreements do not involve aid to the air carriers.
V zvezi s tem Komisija opozarja, da v skladu s sodbo Sodišča dejavnosti, ki običajno spadajo v pristojnost države pri izvrševanju njenih uradnih pooblastil kot javnega organa, niso gospodarske narave in na splošno ne spadajo na področje uporabe pravil o državni pomoči.
However, based on the assessment in recitals 525 to 536, the Commission concludes that it was not rational for So.Ge.A.AL to conclude the agreements with Meridiana and Germanwings.
Glej v tem smislu sodbo v zadevi C-118/85, Komisija proti Italiji, Recueil 1987, str. 2599, točki 7 in 8, sodbo v zadevi C-30/87, Bodson/Pompes funèbres des régions libérées, Recueil 1988, str.

The methodology followed by Italy to examine the incremental profitability of the agreements concluded between So.Ge.A.AL and Air Italy, Air Vallée and bmibaby is detailed in recitals 542 to 545.
Direktiva Sveta 96/67/ES z dne 15. oktobra 1996 o dostopu do trga storitev zemeljske oskrbe na letališčih Skupnosti (UL L 272, 25.10.1996, str.
Incremental aeronautical revenues include revenues from landing charges, baggage handling fees, passenger fees, aircraft handling and ticketing.

All charges, other than handling, were based on the airport's published scheme of charges.
Glej zlasti člen 3 ministrskega odloka št. 521/1997.
Incremental non-aeronautical revenues have been estimated in line with the approach described in recital 502.
Dopis Italije z dne 31. avgusta 2011, prilogi 7 in 23.
Expected incremental costs include costs relating to staffing [127], handling, goods, services and materials, as well as an allocation of So.Ge.A.AL's concession costs.

As the relevant agreements signed between So.Ge.A.AL with Air Vallée and bmibaby did not concern marketing services, the analysis does not consider payments for marketing.
Dopis Italije z dne 22. oktobra 2012.
A regression analysis was carried out on passenger numbers and costs at the airport-level based on ex ante data which would have been available to So.Ge.A.AL at the moment the agreements in question were entered into, namely 1998–2007 for the agreement with Air Italy and 1998–2009 for the agreements with Air Vallée and bmibaby.
Ta opredelitev je bila prenesena z odstavkom 8 člena 3 zakonske uredbe št. 163 z dne 12. aprila 2006 („Codice dei contratti pubblici relativi ai lavori, servizi e furniture“).
Table 21 summarises the incremental profits expected to accrue to So.Ge.A.AL from the agreement with Air Italy.
Dopis Italije z dne 8. maja 2014.
The NPV of the incremental profits that So.Ge.A.AL could have expected from the agreement with Air Italy amounts to EUR 99330 [128].

The NPVs of the incremental profits that So.Ge.A.AL could have expected from the agreements with Air Vallée and bmibaby amount to EUR 3399 and EUR 25330 respectively [130].
Glej sklep Komisije z dne 21. marca 2012 v zadevi C 76/2002, Ugodnosti, ki jih je regija Valonija dodelila letališču Charleroi Bruxelles Sud in letalski družbi Ryanair, in sklep Komisije z dne 25. aprila 2012 v zadevi SA.33961, Plainte Air France – Aéroport de Nîmes.
According to Italy the estimates of the NPV are relatively low because the agreements concluded between So.Ge.A.AL, Air Vallée and bmibaby were expected to cover a period of one year (or less than one year) only.

The Commission notes that the approach taken by Italy in estimating the passenger numbers, and calculating the expected incremental aeronautical and non-aeronautical revenues, and incremental costs of the agreements concluded by So.Ge.A.AL with Air Italy, Air Vallée and bmibaby is the same as the one employed for the agreements with the other carriers.
Družbi So.Ge.A.AL je bila 10. maja 1995 dodeljena prva „delna“ koncesija za zagotavljanje storitev oskrbe na podlagi pogodb, ki bi jih podpisala z letalskimi prevozniki.
Consequently, the Commission concludes that those agreements were expected to be profitable for So.Ge.A.AL at the time they were signed.

The economic advantage identified in recital 534 was granted on a selective basis, as only Meridiana and Germanwings benefited from it.
I-7747.
The advantage derives from airport services and marketing agreements negotiated individually by the two carriers which have not been concluded with the other carriers operating at the airport under the same terms.

Indeed the Commission notes that all agreements subject to the investigation in this case are substantially different and result in different cash flows between So.Ge.A.A.AL and the carriers operating from Alghero airport.

Distortion of competition and effect on trade
Dopis družbe Ryanair z dne 22. julija 2011.
A measure granted by a State is considered to distort or to threaten to distort competition when it is liable to improve the competitive position of the recipient compared to other undertakings with which it competes [131].
Dopis družbe Ryanair z dne 20. decembra 2013.
For all practical purposes, a distortion of competition can thus be assumed as soon as a State grants a financial advantage to an undertaking in a liberalised sector where there is (at least potential) competition.
Dopis družbe Ryanair z dne 15. septembra 2009.
The case law of the European Courts has established that any grant of aid to an undertaking exercising its activities in the internal market can be liable to affect trade between Member States [132].
Dopis družbe Ryanair z dne 15. decembra 2009.
Since the entry into force of the third package on the liberalisation of air transport on 1 January 1993 [133], air carriers can freely operate flights on intra-European connections.
Dopisa družbe Ryanair z dne 12. marca 2013 in 15. decembra 2009.
As the Court of Justice observed,
Assessing State aid to low cost carriers (Ocena državne pomoči nizkocenovnim prevoznikom), 26. oktober 2011, za družbo Ryanair pripravil Simon Pilsbury, izvršni svetovalec družbe Oxera.
‘where an undertaking operates in a sector in which […] producers from various Member States compete, any aid which it may receive from the public authorities is liable to affect trade between the Member States and impair competition, inasmuch as its continuing presence on the market prevents competitors from increasing their market share and reduces their chances of increasing exports.’ [134].(550) The Commission has found that So.Ge.A.AL granted a selective advantage to Germanwings and Meridiana.
Poročilo družbe Oxera, „Kako naj bi se sporazumi z družbo AMS obravnavali v okviru analize donosnosti pri preskusu udeleženca v tržnem gospodarstvu?“, pripravljeno za družbo Ryanair, 17. januar 2014.
Those airlines are active on a liberalised, competitive market and the advantage they received was liable to improve their competitive position on the market for air transport services to/from Alghero airport to the detriment of other Union air carriers.
Poročilo družbe Oxera, „Kako naj bi se sporazumi z družbo AMS obravnavali v okviru analize donosnosti pri preskusu udeleženca v tržnem gospodarstvu? – Praktična uporaba“, pripravljeno za družbo Ryanair, 31. januar 2014.
In this light, the Commission finds that the advantage granted to Germanwings and Meridiana is liable to distort competition and affect trade between Member States.
Poročilo družbe Oxera, „Gospodarska presoja načela udeleženca v tržnem gospodarstvu, letališče Alghero“, pripravljeno za družbo Ryanair, 22. julij 2011.
Conclusion on the agreements with the airlines
Poročilo družbe Oxera, „Gospodarska presoja načela udeleženca v tržnem gospodarstvu: posodobljena analiza donosnosti – letališče Alghero“, pripravljeno za družbo Ryanair, 12. marec 2013.
Therefore, the Commission concludes that the measures adopted by So.Ge.A.AL pursuant to the 2010 agreement with Meridiana and the 2007 agreement with Germanwings involved State aid to those airlines, amounting to approximately EUR 175174 and EUR 140482, respectively.
Sodba v zadevi C-41/90, Höfner in Elser, Recueil 1991, str.
Since the aid involved in each of these agreements was put into effect without being authorised by the Commission, it constitutes unlawful State aid.
I-1979, točka 21, sodba v zadevi C-160/91, Poucet in Pistre proti AGF in Cancava, Recueil 1993, str.
Compatibility of aid to the airlines
I-637, točka 17, sodba v zadevi C-35/96, Komisija proti Italiji, Recueil 1998, str.
As regards start-up aid, the 2014 Aviation Guidelines state that:
I-3851, točka 36.
‘the Commission will apply the principles set out in these guidelines to all notified start-up aid measure in respect of which it is called upon to take a decision from 4 April 2014, even where the measures were notified prior that date.
Sodba v zadevi C-288/11 P, Mitteldeutsche Flughafen in Flughafen Leipzig-Halle proti Komisiji, ZOdl.
In accordance with the Commission notice on the determination of the applicable rules for the assessment of unlawful State aid, the Commission will apply to unlawful start-up aid to airlines the rules in force at the time when the aid was granted.
2012, še ni objavljeno, glej tudi sodbo v zadevi T-128/89, Aéroports de Paris proti Komisiji, Recueil 2000, str.
Accordingly, it will not apply the principles set out in these guidelines in the case of unlawful start-up aid to airlines granted before 4 April 2014.’
II-3929, potrjena s sodbo v zadevi C-82/01P, Aéroports de Paris proti Komisiji, Recueil 2002, str.
The 2005 Aviation Guidelines, in turn, stipulate that:
I-9297, in sodbo v zadevi T-196/04, Ryanair proti Komisiji, ZOdl.
‘the Commission will assess the compatibility of […] start-up aid granted without its authorisation and which therefore infringes Article 88(3) of the Treaty [now Article 108(3) of the Treaty], on the basis of these guidelines if payment of the aid started after the guidelines were published in the Official Journal of the European Union.’
2008, str.
As the agreements with Meridiana and Germanwings were concluded after the publication of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines in the Official Journal on 9 December 2005, those guidelines constitute the applicable legal basis for the assessment of their compatibility with the internal market.
II-3643.
Compatibility assessment pursuant to 2005 Aviation Guidelines
Sodba v združenih zadevah C-159/91 in C-160/91, Poucet proti AGV in Pistre proti Cancave, Recueil 1993, str.
The 2005 Aviation Guidelines set out in point 79 several conditions to be complied with in order for start-up aid to be found compatible with the internal market under Article 107(3)(c) of the Treaty.
I-637.
The aid is paid to air carriers with a valid operating licence issued by a Member State pursuant to Regulation (EEC) No 2407/92
Smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 29.
In this case the beneficiaries are air carriers as defined by Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008 [135].
Sodba v zadevi C-364/92, SAT Flugelgesellschaft proti Eurocontrol, Recueil 1994, str.
The first condition set forth by the 2005 Aviation Guidelines is therefore fulfilled.
I-43, smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 34.
The aid is paid for routes linking a regional airport in category C or D to another EU airport
Odločba Komisije z dne 19. marca 2003 v zadevi N 309/2002, že navedena.
As of 2005 Alghero airport qualified as a category C regional airport pursuant to the 2005 Aviation Guidelines.
Glej zlasti sodbo v zadevi C-364/92, SAT Fluggesellschaft proti Eurocontrol, Recueil 1994, str.
The aid was granted to airlines opening new routes from Alghero airport to other airports located in the Union.
I-43, točka 30, in sodbo v zadevi C-113/07 P, Selex Sistemi Integrati proti Komisiji, ZOdl.
The second condition is thus observed.
2009, str.
The aid will apply only to the opening of new routes or new schedules, which will lead to an increase in the net volume of passengers.
I-2207, točka 71, smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 35.
This aid must not encourage traffic simply to be transferred from one airline or company to another.
Glej sodbo v zadevi C-172/03, Wolfgang Heiser proti Finanzamt Innsbruck, ZOdl.
In particular, it must not lead to a relocation of traffic which is unjustified with regard to the frequency and viability of existing services leaving from another airport in the same city, the same conurbation [136] or the same airport system [137], which serve the same or a similar destination under the same criteria
2005, str.
The aid was granted to encourage airlines to launch new routes from Alghero airport to one or more Union destinations, thereby leading to an increase in the net volume of passengers.
I-01627, točka 36 in navedena sodna praksa.
There is no other airport in the same city or conurbation.
Smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 37.
In addition, none of the routes in question was served by a high-speed rail service.
Dopis Italije z dne 10. junija 2014, Priloga 22.
The third condition set forth by the 2005 Aviation Guidelines is thus fulfilled.
Glej smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 37.
The route receiving the aid must ultimately prove profitable, namely it must at least cover its costs, without public funding.
Sodba v zadevi C-482/99, Francija proti Komisiji (Stardust Marine), Recueil 2002, str.
For this reason start-up aid must be degressive and of limited duration
I-4397.
Aid to Germanwings and Meridiana was limited to the duration of the agreements concluded with So.Ge.A.AL, namely one and three years respectively However, no condition was imposed in the agreements by which the routes operated by the carriers from Alghero airport had to be ultimately profitable on a stand-alone basis.
Sodba v združenih zadevah T-267/08 in T-279/08, Nord-Pas-de-Calais, ZOdl.
The Commission further notes that, while the amount of aid received by Germanwings as listed in Table 19 was degressive, Germanwings ceased operations at Alghero airport in 2007 and therefore never operated without public funding.
2011, še ni objavljena, točka 108.
The amount of aid must be strictly linked to eligible costs
Sodba Sodišča z dne 6. marca 2002 v združenih zadevah T-127/99, T-129/99 in T-140/99, Diputación Foral de Álava in drugi proti Komisiji, Recueil 2002, str.
Eligible costs are defined in the 2005 Aviation Guidelines as the ‘additional start-up costs incurred in launching the new route or frequency […] which the air operator will not have to bear once it is up and running’.
II-1330, točka 142.
Italy has not claimed that the financing to Germanwings and Meridiana was limited to cover eligible costs and that regular operating costs would not be subsidised.
Sodba v zadevi Stardust Marine, že navedena.
This condition is therefore not complied with.
Dopis Italije z dne 18. februarja 2014, Priloga 17.
The degressive aid may be granted for a maximum period of three years.
Sodba v zadevi C-39/94, Syndicat français de l'Express international (SFEI) in drugi proti La Poste in drugim, Recueil 1996, str.
The amount of aid in any one year may not exceed 50 % of total eligible costs for that year and total aid may not exceed an average of 30 % of eligible costs
I-3547, točka 60, in sodba v zadevi C-342/96, Kraljevina Španija proti Komisiji Evropskih skupnosti, Recueil 1999, str.
The agreements with the airlines in question make no reference to the costs of the airlines and do not lay down that the aid must be limited to a certain percentage of the eligible costs.
I-2459, točka 41.
The Commission therefore finds that this condition is not fulfilled.
Sodba v zadevi Altmark, že navedena.
The period during which start-up aid is granted to an airline must be substantially less than the period during which the airline undertakes to operate from the airport in question
Sodba v zadevi 173/73, Italijanska republika proti Komisiji Evropskih skupnosti, Recueil 1974, str. 709, točka 13.
The Commission notes that no condition was imposed that the routes opened by the carriers be viable after the period when their operation is subsidised.
Sodba v zadevi Stardust Marine, že navedena, točka 69.
The aid payments must be linked to the net development of the number of passengers transported
Sodba v zadevi C-305/89, Italija proti Komisiji („Alfa Romeo“), Recueil 1991, str.
The Commission notes that there is a clear link between the number of passengers carried and the amount of aid.
I-1603, točka 23, sodba v zadevi T-296/97, Alitalia proti Komisiji, Recueil 2000, str.
In particular, the agreements with Germanwings and Meridiana set out success fees to be paid by So.Ge.A.AL if the airlines met the stipulated traffic targets.
II-03871, točka 84.
Any public body which plans to grant start-up aid to an airline for a new route, whether or not via an airport, must make its plans public in good time and with adequate publicity to enable all interested airlines to offer their services.
Sodba v zadevi C-40/85, Belgija proti Komisiji, Recueil 1986, str.
The notification must in particular include the description of the route as well as the objective criteria in terms of the amount and the duration of the aid
I-2321.
In the course of the investigation Italy claimed that the airport's intention to conclude agreements with airlines interested in opening new routes departing from Alghero airport had been sufficiently advertised among the potential interested carriers.
Sodba v zadevi Stardust Marine, že navedena, točka 71.
However, no evidence was provided in that respect.
Sodba v zadevi C-124/10P, Evropska Komisija proti Électricité de France („EDF“), ZOdl.
In particular, no indication exists that Alghero airport made its intention to grant aid to the airlines, and the conditions of the granting of such aid, known in good time and with adequate publicity.
2012, še ni objavljena, točka 85.
The procedure for selection of the air carriers was therefore not sufficiently clear to ensure the non-discriminatory treatment of applicants of interested carriers.
Komisija v tem sklepu ne zavzema dokončnega stališča o tej točki.
