The point is, some resolution to the fact that we'll be out of the European Court of Justice and therefore by default out of the current open skies, may well be drafted, debated and resolved one day, but there is no way on this earth it will be concluded by March 2019. The departments involved currently don't even know where to start - not a single statement has been promulgated as to how they think this will be resolved - all too bloody difficult. More than that, airlines can't plan UK-EU schedules for 2019 if they don't know what the rules will be by this time latest next year - and they won't. Old bilateral agreements which may have existed previously between the UK and the EU27 individual countries, will in the main be unworkable. Head in sand 'it will all be resolved so stop scaremongering' bull is pathetic, people genuinely don't know where to start on this, it is a very real nightmare which no doubt will be resolved one day, but there simply isn't the time. Better swat up your freedoms of the air and associated legislation - nothing in reverting to WTO rules covers these at all.
