18 March 2020 (Brussels). The European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) respects the decision by European authorities to temporarily restrict non-essential travel, but calls on the European Commission, the Member States and Switzerland to consider all recovery and relief measures available to ensure business continuity for operators, airports and others in the business aviation industry.

The European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) is closely monitoring developments related to the Coronavirus or COVID-19 outbreak.

The safety and security of the participants at the EBAA Annual Meetings is the highest priority for the EBAA. As of this time, EBAA intends to proceed with the Annual Meetings as planned, while working with government and industry experts to inform ongoing decisions.

EBAA invited CEOs of companies involved in the European Business aviation sector to participate in a brief anonymous survey to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on their companies. This online survey was conducted between 26 March and 2 April 2020.

The COVID19 crisis had effects on our society as a whole, with a considerable impact on global air transport in particular. As aircraft are by nature borderless, the closure of borders by Governments has led to a disruption of aviation as it was then known and all the industries that depend on it (tourism, hotels, etc.).

The European Commission’s “Fit for 55” package published last July includes several proposals which will significantly affect our sector and society in general in the years to come.

The US will lift travel restrictions for fully vaccinated travellers, reopening its borders for the first time after an 18 months travel ban, for vaccinated travellers from 33 countries including all EU and EFTA Member States and the UK.
