Contracts in the aviation sector
Contracts in the aviation sector
The aviation sector is one in which everything converges: international regulations, financial interests and operational pressures. Contractual agreements form the backbone of cooperation between airlines, leasing companies, airports, service providers and other stakeholders. Clear and well-thought-out contracts are essential for managing risks and preventing disputes.
As aviation lawyers, we advise and assist clients in drafting, reviewing and negotiating contracts within the aviation sector. In doing so, we focus not only on legal correctness, but also on practical feasibility and strategic choices that align with the day-to-day reality of the sector. Examples of contracts include:
- Lease agreements (wet and dry leases);
- maintenance and MRO contracts;
- codeshare and interline agreements;
- ground handling and catering contracts;
- agency and distribution agreements;
- liability and insurance clauses.

IATA Travel Pass: ins and outs
International air traffic has been (partially) stopped for quite some time now. The corona crisis has had an enormous impact on the aviation industry. Restarting air traffic brings with it the necessary challenges in terms of information supply to passengers, the requirements of various governments, but also the requirements for airports and airlines.
Do airlines have to compensate passengers financially in case of a strike?
The rights of air passengers in case of delay, cancellation or denied boarding are regulated by EU Regulation 261/2004. The Regulation entitles passengers in certain cases to standardized financial compensation of €250, €400 or €600 depending on the flight distance.
