Negotiators from the United States and the European Union have reached agreement on granting unlimited access to each other's airspace. At a meeting in Washington, the two sides also decided that an aircraft from Europe will have the right to land at any airport in the United States and vice versa.

The deal still has to be approved by the US government and the EU before it can be implemented, and a number of conditions have yet to be established. The EU wants the US to increase the maximum share permitted to foreign investors in US airlines. At present this is 25 percent, whereas investors from outside the EU are allowed a 49 percent stake in European airlines.
