The European Commission proposed to suspend the EU rule that requires air carriers to operate slots for at least 80 percent of the time to keep the entitlement in the next equivalent season through June 30.
The draft amendment to the EU slot regulation 95/93, also proposes to retroactively waive the 80/20 use-it-or-lose-it rule to March 1 and to January 23
for slots used for flights between the EU and China/ Hong Kong.
The EU waiver lasts one month longer than the one granted by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration on 11 March 2020.
