Aviation Law & Policy

A thorough examination of issues surrounding aviation law including an in-depth look at international developments in aviation law to overcome regulatory burdens and minimise risk

Introduction

Aviation is one of the most highly regulated industries in the world.  Developments are widespread, from recent developments in air passenger rights to developments in aviation claims-handling, air disaster management and accident investigation. Following an expansion of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme, a number of new regulatory obligations have also been imposed on airlines operating flights to and from the EU.

Following developments in the aviation insurance market and the rapidly changing interface between aviation regulation and competition law, it is essential that you keep up-to-date in this fast changing and increasingly regulated area.

Butterworths Aviation Law conference will provide a comprehensive insight into the most current developments, from the latest revisions to the Denied Boarding, Cancellation and Delay Regulation to leading decisions in the area of forum non conveniens. Our unparalleled speaker panel will offer practical advice to ensure you stay at the forefront of this constantly evolving and complex area of law.
