The Government of Canada is pleased to announce that it has successfully concluded negotiations on air transport he led with Azerbaijan, Burundi, Haiti and Togo, which has resulted in transport agreements new and expanded air between Canada and these countries.
The expanded agreement with Haiti, based on the bilateral agreement on air transport in 1978, allows many airlines to operate scheduled air services and introduce new pricing faster, giving them more flexibility to meet consumer demand.
New agreements with Azerbaijan, Burundi and Togo make the sharing of codes, which is much more convenient for travelers. Through code-sharing, an airline can sell seats on a flight operated by another carrier, and thereby expand its network and the range of products it offers.
These agreements, made under the Blue Sky policy in Canada, aimed at promoting a competitive air transport sector that meets the needs of Canadian travelers and businesses. Carriers may exercise these new rights based on their own commercial considerations now.
The announcement today is 26, an unprecedented number, total international air transport agreements new or expanded announced by Canada in 2013.
