EASA is reviewing operational rules for (small-size) aeroplane operators, and your input can shape the outcome. Whether you operate small aircraft, run cost-sharing platforms, or fly larger jets, this survey is your chance to influence future regulation. Open until 30 May.

Using EUROCONTROL data, we have compiled the European Business aviation traffic figures for April 2025.

EBAA is pleased to launch its new compliance guide on the refuelling obligations set out in the ReFuelEU Aviation Regulation (EU 2023/2405). This user-friendly document is designed to support business aviation operators in navigating the complexities of the antitankering and reporting provisions introduced by the regulation.

Using EUROCONTROL data, we have compiled the European Business aviation traffic figures for March 2025.

Following the entry into force of the ReFuelEU Regulation in January 2025, several European business aviation operators have started to voice concerns over the operational issues with the implementation of the regulation’s Article 5, forbidding fuel tankering at Union airports and requiring burdensome administrative requirements. EBAA has gathered a group of expert members’ operators to help the association shape arguments in view of the ReFuelEU review in 2027 and assist other members with compliance.

Safety in business aviation isn’t about ticking boxes—it’s about trust, awareness, and human judgment. In a world of constant change, rigid compliance alone can’t prevent incidents. True safety lives in cultures where people speak up, adapt, and own responsibility. It’s time to stop managing people as risks—and start empowering them as our greatest safety asset.

As other regions intensify competition for investment and influence, the European Union must leverage every strategic asset at its disposal. Business aviation – often misunderstood as a luxury – is in fact a crucial tool for restoring and bolstering Europe’s competitiveness. It enables rapid access to international markets, facilitates foreign investments, and strengthens Europe’s strategic economic positioning on the world stage. In the context of EU policy debates, recognising the value of business aviation is more important than ever.

EBAA has responded to EASA's NPA 2024-106, advocating for realistic FTL rules tailored to business aviation. Key concerns include acclimatisation, standby duty, and preserving operational flexibility without compromising safety. EBAA continues to engage with EASA to shape fair, data-driven fatigue management regulations.
