📣 ACI EUROPE joins over 400 cross-sector organisations in a collective call on EU leaders to confirm the Green Deal as a strategic priority for the next EU mandate.   The EU Green Deal is the foundation of a competitive, secure, modern and efficient Europe. As such, it must be underpinned by EU industrial policy supporting its implementation. EU airports are bound by a number of requirements for their infrastructure to meet the ambitious goals enshrined in the Green Deal, and they now need the stability and supporting measures to deliver on the transformation. This means, the EU Green Deal needs to be reconfirmed as a key strategic priority for our bloc by the new leaders assuming their office this year and complemented by a sound EU industrial strategy to support it. Moreover, the European aviation stakeholders are ready to start a closer cooperation with the institutions shaping their sustainable and competitive future, notably the European Commission, to establish an EU Pact for Sustainable & Competitive Aviation, fully aligned with the EU Green Deal objectives.

Climate change has very much become politicised over the past months in the run up to the European elections and as we move closer to our next 5-year political cycle. That should not be. Climate change is about science first and foremost - and the Green Deal came in response to science (and international commitments under the Paris Agreement). It has positioned Europe as the leading continent on climate action and the preservation of future generations’ mere existence. So it has been a no brainer for ACI EUROPE to be part of this unprecedented coalition calling on EU leaders to preserve the Green Deal as THE way forward for Europe’s security, competitiveness and sustainable growth. In fact this is the only way. Developing and managing airports has always been about remaining as much as possible driven by and focused on the long-term. Deciding on public policies and regulating should follow the same logic - more than ever. Of course, there is a lot to do to improve the Green Deal and future-proof it - hence our call for it to be complemented by a real industrial policy. Hence also our call together with our #destination2050 partners for an EU Pact for Sustainable and Competitive Aviation. But there can be no way back from the direction set by the Green Deal. #GREENDEALFOREU | European Commission | European Parliament | Council of the European Union

#DAY3 Our CEO Selahattin Bilgen participated as a speaker in the Wrap-up Session of the Panel Discussion at ACI EUROPE Annual Congress and General Assembly. Highlights from his speech; 👉 The main challenges for our industry are not competition among ourselves, but rather the general situation, influenced by sustainability and operational complexities. We are very positive with respect to the future when it comes to demand and the state of the industry overall, despite these issues. These challenges are common across the industry, making collaboration, cooperation, and information sharing crucial as we grow larger and larger. 👉 The aviation industry must adapt to these changes on a broader scale. We face real challenges from sustainability measures and evolving customer expectations, and we must act in coordination and take timely actions to address these challenges. #ACI2024IST #IstanbulAirport
