Abstract

The intensive movement of aircraft in the airspace of our planet requires streamlining and at the present stage, safe and efficient flight operations in most cases are difficult to imagine without proper air traffic maintenance. Bilateral and regional cooperation of states is important for the organization of the air traffic service system and improving its efficiency, and the European region is one of the most interesting and positive examples in this regard. Its experience is of great value for deepening integration within the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) and therefore requires a detailed legal analysis.

The purpose of the study is a critical analysis of the experience of European states and the European Union in the field of legal regulation of air traffic services at the regional level for use in the development of interstate cooperation within the EAEU.

Research methods: dialectical and comparative legal methods, methods of analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction.

Interstate cooperation in the field of air traffic services in the European region is a complex multi—level mechanism in which institutional and contractual forms of cooperation are intertwined, the norms of various legal systems interact, including the norms of public international law, the law of the European Union and the national law of European States, and various subjects of international law (including states, the European Union as a whole and the European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation). This mechanism consists of two closely related and interacting levels: the European Organization for the Safety of Air Navigation (Eurocontrol); the European Union and its “Single European Sky” program.

Conclusion: the experience of the long-term functioning of Eurocontrol and the implementation of the “Single European Sky” program of the European Union shows the possibility of constructive interaction between the classical regional intergovernmental organization for air traffic services and the regional integration association.
