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.’
dokumente, ki dokazujejo, da se je od upravičencev zahtevalo vračilo pomoči.
The 2005 Aviation Guidelines, in turn, stipulate that:
Avstrija obvešča Komisijo o napredku glede sprejetih nacionalnih ukrepov za izvajanje tega sklepa, dokler se vračanje pomoči iz členov 5 do 8 ne konča.
‘the Commission will assess the compatibility of […] start-up aid granted without its authorisation and which therefore infringes Article 88(3) EC [now Article 108(3) TFEU], 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.’
Komisiji nemudoma na njeno zahtevo pošlje vse informacije o že sprejetih in načrtovanih ukrepih za izvajanje tega sklepa.
As the agreements of 2006 with Ryanair 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.
Zagotovi tudi podrobne informacije o zneskih pomoči in obrestih, ki so jih upravičenci že povrnili.
The 2003 agreement with HLX was signed before the 2005 Guidelines were published on 9 December 2005.
Člen 12
With regard to the compatibility of aid granted before this date, the Commission refers to recitals 523 to 530.
Ta sklep je naslovljen na Republiko Avstrijo.
In conclusion, the Commission takes the view that, in this case, the compatibility of the 2003 agreement with HLX should be assessed in the light of the aforementioned general principles directly on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
V Bruslju, 11. novembra 2016
Regarding the applicable legal framework reference is made to recitals 531-533.
Za Komisijo
As the agreement of 2008 with Tuifly was 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.

Compatibility assessment pursuant to Article 107(3)(c) TFEU: the aid must be limited in time and involve a route likely to become profitable
UL C 233, 3.8.2012, str. 28.
The Commission notes that, despite its invitation in this respect, Austria did not provide any viability study for the Klagenfurt-London route covered by the 2002 agreements to prove that the aid granted through the agreements in question was justified.
Sklep Komisije o državni pomoči SA.24221 (ex CP 281/2007) – Avstrija – Letališče Celovec – Ryanair in drugi letalski prevozniki, ki to letališče uporabljajo (UL C 233, 3.8.2012, str. 28).
Accordingly, based on the facts on record, it seems that, for the authorities that granted the aid in question, there was no clear prospect of the Klagenfurt-London route becoming viable without aid in the short term.
Sporočilo Komisije – Smernice o državni pomoči letališčem in letalskim prevoznikom (UL C 99, 4.4.2014, str. 3).
The Commission stresses in this respect that the explanations submitted by the Austrian authorities on the economic benefits of the route operated by Ryanair analyse the impact that they might have on the region's development, but do not include projections of the future viability of these routes or other routes likely to be operated by Ryanair in the future.
Sporočilo Komisije – Smernice Skupnosti o financiranju letališč in zagonski državni pomoči letalskim družbam z odhodi z regionalnih letališč (UL C 312, 9.12.2005, str. 1).
Moreover, the Commission notes that, although these measures were limited in time, the 5-year term of each agreement was not necessary for or proportional to the costs incurred in launching a new route given that, in the aviation sector, a contractual term of less than 3 years is usually sufficient.
Sklep Komisije o državni pomoči SA.24221 (ex CP 281/2007) – Avstrija – Letališče Celovec – Ryanair in drugi letalski prevozniki (UL C 348, 3.10.2014, str. 36).
The Commission therefore considers that the 2002 agreements do not meet the condition that the measures must be limited in time and involve routes likely to become profitable.
Vlada zvezne dežele Koroške se je 28. aprila 2016 odločila za prenehanje družbe KLH brez likvidacije.
As this condition is not fulfilled, there is no necessity for the Commission to assess the other conditions mentioned above.
Sredstva družbe KLH so se prenesla na nov subjekt za posebne namene Kärntner Beteiligungsverwaltung (v nadaljnjem besedilu: K-BVG).
The aid must be proportional, i.e. the amount must be linked to the net development of traffic.
Ker ta sklep opisuje in obravnava obdobje, v katerem je družba KLH še obstajala, se v njem uporablja ime „KLH“.
Austria has not submitted any information as to how the aid involved in the agreements at issue would relate to the net development of traffic.
Velja obveznost varovanja poslovne skrivnosti.
In particular, no indication has been provided as to the start-up costs incurred by Ryanair for launching the Klagenfurt-London route and there is no provision in the 2002 agreements ensuring that the aid granted to Ryanair will be limited to a reasonable fraction of those costs.
Zneski v oklepajih so zneski spodbud, plačanih družbi AUA naknadno na podlagi sporazuma o poravnavi, predstavljenega v oddelku 2.9.
The Commission therefore considers that the 2002 agreements do not meet the requirement that the aid must be proportional, i.e. the amount must be linked to the net development of traffic.
Uporaba spodbud za družbo AUA pred letom 2005 je temeljila na sporazumu o poravnavi, predstavljenem v oddelku 2.9.
The Commission considers that the 2002 agreements with Ryanair and its subsidiaries constitute unlawful aid incompatible with the internal market.
Kot pa je navedeno v uvodnih izjavah 65 in 71, povračilo pristojbin za obračanje iz obeh javnih razpisov ni enako.
The 2006 agreements with Ryanair and AMS — Compatibility assessment pursuant to 2005 Aviation Guidelines
Družba Ryanair je kot primer navedla letališča […].
Given that the compatibility conditions for start-up aid enshrined in point 79 of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines are cumulative, the Commission considers that it is only necessary to demonstrate that one of those conditions is not fulfilled in order to find that the aid to the airlines is not compatible.
Kratica pomeni „načelo vlagatelja v tržnem gospodarstvu“.
The Commission starts its analysis with the condition set out in point 79(d) of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines.
V okviru pristopa enojnega obračunavanja se pri določanju višine letaliških pristojbin upoštevajo prihodki, ki jih upravljavec letališča zbere iz vseh dejavnosti letališča, vključno s komercialnimi neletalskimi dejavnostmi, kot je upravljanje trgovin, restavracij in parkirišč.
Point 79(d) of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines requires, inter alia, that the amount of aid granted in any one year does not exceed 50 % of total eligible costs for that year and total aid does not exceed an average of 30 % of eligible costs.
To je v nasprotju z načelom dvojnega obračunavanja, kjer se pri določanju letaliških pristojbin upoštevajo le prihodki iz letalskih dejavnosti (zlasti letališke pristojbine in pristojbine za zemeljsko oskrbo).
Eligible costs are defined 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’.
„Cenik oglaševanja“ je standarden izraz v oglaševanju.
In the opening decision the Commission observed that the agreements of 2006 with Ryanair did not provide for any connection between the aid granted and the eligible costs.
Gre za natisnjen seznam cen oglaševanja, ki jih zaračunajo tiskani, radijski in televizijski mediji ali podjetja, ki na svojih spletnih mestih ponujajo oglaševalski prostor.
Austria was therefore asked to provide details on the relationship between the aid and the eligible costs.
Obvestilo Komisije o pojmu državne pomoči po členu 107(1) Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije (UL C 262, 19.7.2016, str. 1).
Neither Austria nor the third parties commenting on the opening decision provided any such information.
Ko je družba Oxera januarja 2015 predložila svojo zabeležko, je bil ta dokument objavljen kot osnutek za javno posvetovanje.
In this light, and considering that the agreements with the airlines in question make no reference to the costs of the airlines, let alone the eligible costs, the Commission finds that the compatibility condition enshrined in point 79(d) of the 2005 Aviation Guidelines is not fulfilled.
Družba Oxera se je sklicevala na pristop, ki ga je Komisija uporabila v sklepih o letališčih Pau in Nîmes, v katerih je pričakovane prihodke iz neletalskih dejavnosti na odhajajočega potnika izračunala na podlagi podatkov o letališčih pred podpisom sporazumov, ki jih je prilagodila glede na inflacijo.Sklep Komisije (EU) 2015/1227 z dne 23. julija 2014 o državni pomoči SA.22614 (C 53/07), ki jo je Francija odobrila Gospodarski zbornici Pau-Béarn ter družbam Ryanair, Airport Marketing Services in Transavia (UL L 201, 30.7.2015, str. 109), točka 414.Sklep Komisije (EU) 2016/633 z dne 23. julija 2014 o državni pomoči SA.33961 (2012/C) (ex 2012/NN), ki jo je Francija izvedla za gospodarsko zbornico Nîmes-Uzès-Le Vigan ter družbe Veolia Transport Aéroport Nîmes, Ryanair Limited in Airport Marketing Services Limited (UL L 113, 27.4.2016, str. 32), točka 436.
In conclusion, the aid to Ryanair cannot be found to constitute compatible start-up aid, as at least one of the compatibility conditions is not fulfilled.
Družba Oxera je za začetek izvajanja dejavnosti družbe Ryanair štela leto, v katerem je družba Ryanair začela „intenzivno“ izvajati dejavnosti na letališču, kar je opredeljeno kot prvo leto, v katerem je število odhajajočih potnikov družbe Ryanair preseglo 50 % največjega skupnega števila odhajajočih potnikov družbe Ryanair v enem letu na istem letališču v obdobju 1994–2012.
The Commission considers that the 2006 agreements with Ryanair and its subsidiaries constitute unlawful aid incompatible with the internal market.
Sodba upravnega sodišča v Marseillu z dne 20. oktobra 2009, v kateri je sodišče ugotovilo, da je sporazum med letališčem Marseille in AMS letališču omogočal, da prejme dejansko plačilo v obliki storitev trženja.
Compatibility assessment pursuant to Article 107(3)(c) TFEU
Sklep Komisije 2011/60/EU z dne 27. januarja 2010 o državni pomoči C 12/08 (ex NN 74/07) – Slovaška – Sporazum med letališčem Bratislava in družbo Ryanair (UL L 27, 1.2.2011, str. 24), uvodna izjava 114.
The compatibility of the 2003 agreement with HLX should be assessed in the light of the abovementioned principles directly on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
Komisija je ugotovila, da tudi če letališče ne plačuje za dodatno trženje na spletnem mestu družbe Ryanair in je na njem zgolj objavljeno kot destinacija, ni mogoče izključiti, da je oglaševanju mogoče pripisati določeno vrednost (glej uvodno izjavo 114).
The aid must be limited in time and involve a route likely to become profitable
Komisija je ugotovila, da je bil sporazum, ki je bil predmet preiskave, skladen z načelom udeleženca v tržnem gospodarstvu.
The Commission notes that, despite its invitation in this respect, Austria has not provided any viability study for the new routes covered by the 2003 agreement to prove that the aid granted through the agreements in question was justified.
Objektivna merila, kot so vrsta oglaševanja (povezave, pasice, besedilni odstavki, dolžina in postavitev oglasa na zaslonu), dnevno število obiskovalcev na spletnem mestu ter število rut na letališče in z njega.
Accordingly, based on the facts on record, it seems that, for the authorities that granted the aid in question, there was no clear prospect of the new routes becoming viable without aid in the more or less short term.
Glej http://airportmarketingservices.com/pdfs/ratecard.pdf.
The Commission stresses in this respect that the explanations submitted by the Austrian authorities on the economic benefits of the routes operated by HLX analyse the impact that they might have on the region's development, but do not include projections of the future viability of these routes operated by HLX.

The 2008 agreement with Tuifly — Compatibility assessment pursuant to 2005 Aviation Guidelines
Sodba v zadevi Flughafen Leipzig-Halle GmbH in Mitteldeutsche Flughafen AG proti Komisiji ter Freistaat Sachsen in Land Sachsen-Anhalt proti Komisiji, opomba 21 zgoraj, ECLI:EU:T:2011:117, zlasti točki 84 in 158.
The Commission observed that the agreement of 2008 with TUIfly did not provide for any connection between the aid granted and the eligible costs.
Sodba v zadevi Aéroports de Paris proti Komisiji, opomba 24 zgoraj, ECLI:EU:T:2000:290, potrjena s sodbo z dne 24. oktobra 2002 v zadevi Aéroports de Paris proti Komisiji, C-82/01 P, ECLI:EU:C:2002:617.
In conclusion, the aid to Tuifly cannot be found to constitute compatible start-up aid, as at least one of the compatibility conditions is not fulfilled.
Sodba z dne 12. julija 1984 v zadevi Hydrotherm, C-170/83, ECLI:EU:C:1984:271, točka 11.
The Commission considers that the 2008 agreement with Tuifly constitutes unlawful aid incompatible with the internal market.
Glej tudi sodbo z dne 14. oktobra 2004 v zadevi Pollmeier Malchow proti Komisiji, T-137/02, ECLI:EU:T:2004:304, točka 50.
CONCLUSION
Sodba z dne 16. decembra 2010 v zadevi AceaElectrabel Produzione SpA proti Komisiji, C-480/09 P, ECLI:EU:C:2010:787, točke 47 do 55; sodba z dne 10. januarja 2006 v zadevi Ministero dell'Economia e delle Finanze proti Cassa di Risparmio di Firenze SpA in drugim, C-222/04, ECLI:EU:C:2006:8, točka 112.
The Commission finds that Austria has unlawfully granted State aid to KFBG in breach of Article 108(3) TFEU.
Sodba z dne 19. januarja 1994 v zadevi SAT Fluggesellschaft proti Eurocontrol, C-364/92, ECLI:EU:C:1994:7.
However, these subsidies are aid compatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.

Furthermore, the Commission finds that the airport and marketing services agreements signed between KFBG and Ryanair and its subsidiaries in 2002 and 2006 involve State aid, which was granted in breach of Article 108(3) TFEU and which are aid incompatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
Sodba z dne 18. marca 1997 v zadevi Diego Cali in Figli proti Servizi Ecologici Porto di Genova, C-343/95, ECLI:EU:C:1997:160; Odločba Komisije N 309/2002 z dne 19. marca 2003; Odločba Komisije N 438/2002 z dne 16. oktobra 2002, Subvencije belgijskim pristaniškim upravam za izvrševanje nalog javne oblasti (UL C 284, 21.11.2002, str. 2).
The Commission also finds that the airport and marketing services agreement signed between KFBG and HLX in 2003 involves State aid, which was granted in breach of Article 108(3) TFEU and which is aid incompatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
Odločba Komisije N 309/2002 z dne 19. marca 2003.
The Commission finally finds that the airport and marketing services agreement signed between KFBG/DMG and Tuifly in 2008 involves State aid, which was granted in breach of Article 108(3) TFEU and which is aid incompatible with the internal market on the basis of Article 107(3)(c) TFEU.
Glej zlasti sodbo z dne 19. januarja 1994 v zadevi SAT Fluggesellschaft proti Eurocontrol, C-364/92, ECLI:EU:C:1994:7, točka 30, in sodbo z dne 26. marca 2009 v zadevi Selex Sistemi Integrati proti Komisiji, C-113/07 P, ECLI:EU:C:2009:191, točka 71.
RECOVERY
Glej, med drugim, sodbo z dne 3. marca 2005 v zadevi Wolfgang Heiser proti Finanzamt Innsbruck, C-172/03, ECLI:EU:C:2005:130, točka 36 in navedena sodna praksa.
According to settled case-law of the Court of Justice, when the Commission has found that aid is incompatible with the internal market, it is competent to decide that the Member State concerned must abolish or alter it.
Sodba Sodišča z dne 16. maja 2002 v zadevi Francija proti Komisiji, C-482/99, ECLI:EU:C:2002:294.
According to Article 14 of Council Regulation (EC) No 659/1999, ‘Where negative decisions are taken in cases of unlawful aid, the Commission shall decide that the Member State concerned shall take all necessary measures to recover the aid from the beneficiary (hereinafter referred to as a ‘recovery decision’).
Sodba z dne 12. maja 2011 v združenih zadevah Région Nord-Pas-de-Calais in Communauté ď agglomération du Douaisis, T-267/08 in T-279/08, ECLI:EU:T:2011:209, točka 108.
The Commission shall not require recovery of the aid if this would be contrary to a general principle of Community law’.
Sodba z dne 16. maja 2002 v zadevi Francija proti Komisiji, C-482/99, ECLI:EU:C:2002:294, točka 51 in naslednje.
According to settled case-law of the Court of Justice, where aid is regarded by the Commission as incompatible with the internal market, the purpose of the obligation imposed on the State is to re-establish the previously existing situation.
Prav tam.
In this respect, the Court of Justice considers that the purpose is achieved when beneficiaries have repaid the amounts granted by way of unlawful aid, thus forfeiting the advantage that they enjoyed over competitors.
Sodba z dne 11. julija 1996 v zadevi Syndicat français de l'Express international (SFEI) in drugi proti La Poste in drugim, C-39/94, ECLI:EU:C:1996:285, točka 60, in sodba z dne 29. aprila 1999 v zadevi Španija proti Komisiji, C-342/96, ECLI:EU:C:1999:210, točka 41.
In this way, the situation prior to payment of the aid is restored.
Sodba z dne 2. julija 1974 v zadevi Italija proti Komisiji, C-173/73, ECLI:EU:C:1974:71, točka 13.
In this case, it appears that no general principle of Union law prevents recovery of the unlawful and incompatible aid identified in this Decision.
Sodba z dne 16. maja 2002 v zadevi Francija proti Komisiji, C-482/99, ECLI:EU:C:2002:294, točka 69.
In particular, neither Austria nor the interested third parties have presented any arguments in this respect.
Sodba z dne 21. marca 1991 v zadevi Italija proti Komisiji, C-305/89, ECLI:EU:C:1991:142, točka 23; sodba z dne 12. decembra 2000 v zadevi Alitalia proti Komisiji, T-296/97, ECLI:EU:T:2000:289, točka 84.
Austria must therefore take all necessary measures to recover from Ryanair and its subsidiaries, HLX and Tuifly the unlawful aid granted through the agreements in question.
Sodba z dne 10. julija 1986 v zadevi Belgija proti Komisiji, C-40/85, ECLI:EU:C:1986:305.
Determination of the aid amounts
Sodba z dne 24. julija 2003 v zadevi Altmark Trans in Regierungspräsidium Magdeburg, C-280/00, ECLI:EU:C:2003:415.
The aid amounts to be recovered for each agreement and amendment must be determined as follows.
Sodba z dne 30. aprila 1998 v zadevi Het Vlaamse Gewest proti Komisiji, T-214/95, ECLI:EU:T:1998:77.
Each transaction under review (consisting, where applicable, of an airport services agreement and a marketing services agreement) must be regarded as having given rise to an annual aid amount for each year that the agreements forming the transaction applied.
Glej smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 53.
Each of these amounts is calculated using the negative part of the projected incremental flow (revenues less costs) at the time when the transaction was concluded.
Glej smernice za letalski sektor iz leta 2014, točka 59.
These amounts in fact correspond to the sums that should be deducted each year from the amount for the marketing services (or that should be added to the airport charges and ground handling charges invoiced to the airlines) so that the net present value of the agreement is positive, in other words so that this complies with the MEO principle.
Glej Sklep Komisije 2011/60/EU z dne 27. januarja 2010 o državni pomoči C 12/08 (ex NN 74/07) – Slovaška – Sporazum med letališčem Bratislava in družbo Ryanair (UL L 27, 1.2.2011, str. 24), uvodni izjavi 88 in 89.
In order to take account of the effective advantage received by the airline and its subsidiaries under the agreements, the amounts referred to above recital may be adjusted, using evidence provided by Austria, according to the difference between, on the one hand, the actual marketing payments, as determined ex post, that were made to the airline or its subsidiaries under the marketing services agreement and, on the other hand, the corresponding (ex ante) projected marketing costs.
V zvezi s primerjalno analizo glede na donosnost (v nasprotju z določanjem cen) v sektorju glej sodbo z dne 3. julija 2014 v združenih zadevah Španija in Ciudad de la Luz proti Komisiji, T-319/12 in T-321/12, ECLI:EU:T:2014:604, točka 44.
Effective termination dates of certain agreements
Za druga merila, ki jih je treba oceniti, glej točko 60 smernic za letalski sektor iz leta 2014.
In addition, the Commission considers that the effective advantage received by the airline is limited to the effective term of the agreement in question.
Glej točko 59 smernic za letalski sektor iz leta 2014.
In effect, after the termination of each agreement, Ryanair and its subsidiaries did not receive any payments under these agreements and did not benefit from access to the airport infrastructure and ground handling services under these agreements.
Glej poročila 167.–173. seje nadzornega sveta družbe KFBG z dne 29. julija 2004, 8. oktobra 2004, 1. decembra 2004, 4. marca 2005, 4. maja 2005, 30. septembra 2005 in 12. decembra 2005.
Consequently, the aid amounts calculated as indicated above and associated with a given agreement are reduced to zero for the years in which the agreement ceased to apply (particularly due to early termination of the agreement by the airlines).
Glej poročila nadzornega sveta družbe KFBG z dne 4. maja 2005 (točka 5), 1. decembra 2004 (točka 3), 8. oktobra 2004 (točka 8) in 29. julija 2004 (točka 7).
