Flying safely according to EU standards - 'Flywell'

Effective aviation safety standards in Europe have rendered the safety record amongst the best in the world. Whilst the European Union and its Member States are working with safety authorities in other countries to raise safety standards across the world, there are still some airlines operating in conditions below essential safety levels.


To improve safety in Europe further, the European Commission – in consultation with Member States’ aviation safety authorities – has decided to publish a blacklist of airlines deemed unsafe. The blacklisted airlines are banned from operating in European airspace. This list can be found at the EU website.
