Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of Brexit on demand in the UK airline sector.

Flights between the UK and the EU will continue whatever the outcome of EU Exit. In a deal scenario, flights will continue as now during the time-limited Implementation Period. In a no deal scenario, the EU has adopted a regulation which gives UK airlines the right to fly to and from the EU for 12 months, and the UK will reciprocate these rights for EU airlines.

The Department for Transport maintains close contact with the airline sector to ensure that their requirements are factored into EU Exit negotiations and preparations.
