It will provide enabling environment for enhanced and seamless connectivity while providing commercial opportunities to the carriers of both the sides ensuring greater safety and security.\u00a0The essential features of the ASA are as follows:<\/div>\n<div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">i. Both countries shall be entitled to designate one or more airline.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">ii. The designated airlines of either country shall have the right to establish offices in the territory of the other country for the promotion end sale of air services.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">iii.

The designated Airline of each party can enter into cooperative marketing arrangements with the designated carriers of same party, other party and third country,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">v. As per the Route Schedule, the Indian carriers can operate to Athens, Thessaloniki, HerakIion and any 3 points to be specified later in Greece from points in India, whereas the carriers of Hellenic Republic can establish direct operation to 6 metros viz. New Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Chennal. Any points shall be available as intermediate and beyond point for the designated carriers of India as well as the designated carriers of Greece.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">At present there is no ASA between India and Greece.

The agreement is as per latest International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) template keeping in view the latest developments in civil aviation sector and with an objective to improve the air connectivity between the two countries.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Cabinet<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Union Cabinet chaired by the Prime Minister \u00a0has approved the signing of Air Services Agreement (ASA) between India and Greece.\u00a0The Agreement <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":91,"featured_media":28141,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-109141","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-treaties_conventions_internationalagreements"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Cabinet approves signing of Air Services Agreement between India &amp;
