Look for more choices and cheaper flights to Europe when the Open Skies agreement comes into effect on March 30, 2008. This agreement makes it possible for airlines to fly across the Atlantic between any two airports, where in the past they could only fly to specific countries determined by separate agreements.
The Open Skies agreement will open the way for US airlines to fly directly to more European countries. It will also allow European airlines to set up hubs outside their own country, which will provide more competition amongst European carriers.
