Abstract

The paper reviews the progress achieved so far in terms of applying the major principles of levying infrastructure charges in air transportation by analysing the charge rates in the country for access to airports and for air navigation services. It also comments on some problems arising in result of applying the current charge rates and suggests possible solutions. The author of the paper conducts a SWOT analysis that summarises the opportunities for improving charge rates and the immediate benefits which could be obtained as a result of using those opportunities in applying infrastructure charges in air transportation.
