To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many times the management of Heathrow Airport have used dispensations under section 78(4) of the Civil Aviation Act to allow night flights in the last five years.
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many times the management of Heathrow Airport have used dispensations under section 78(4) of the Civil Aviation Act to allow night flights in the last five years.
Heathrow Airport publishes this information in its Flight Performance Reports which are available on its website. Its latest published report (Q3 2014) includes data from Winter season 2006/07 up to and including Winter season 2013/14. Dispensations issued under section 78(4) of the Civil Aviation Act are categorised in the report as ‘not counted – delays’ or ‘not counted - emergency’. In Summer season 2014 there were a further 296 dispensations issued under section 78(4).
To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they will take a decision on including airlines within the ATOL scheme for Flight-Plus transactions in line with powers contained in the Civil Aviation Act 2012.
To ask Her Majesty’s Government when they will take a decision on including airlines within the ATOL scheme for Flight-Plus transactions in line with powers contained in the Civil Aviation Act 2012.
The European Commission’s proposal for a new Package Travel Directive expands the scope of the definitions to potentially include a range of holidays currently covered as flight-plus arrangements under the Air Travel Organisers’ Licensing (ATOL) scheme, and some holidays sold by airlines.
On 18 March 2013, the European Commission published a Communication on Passenger Protection in the Event of Airline Insolvency. The Commission committed to closely monitor the application of a range of measures, and after two years, review their performance and effectiveness and assess whether a legislative initiative is needed to guarantee the protection of passengers in the case of airline insolvency. We anticipate that the Commission’s review will commence next year.
We will carefully consider the outcome of these matters as part of our review of ATOL reform.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) is presently consulting on the charges that, from 1 April next year and in line with the ‘user pays’ principle, it proposes to levy on those aviation entities subject to security regulation, when the authority assumes responsibility for aviation security regulatory and compliance monitoring activity.
The initial impact assessment included a range of costs from £4.5 million to £6.6 million. However, after carrying out a full due diligence process on the costs involved, this resulted in a revised position of £7.9 million. As part of the CAA’s published response on 6 November to its first round of consultation on charging, full details were provided of an analysis of the differences between the cost information given prior to the passage of the Civil Aviation Act 2012, and the target cost base which now underpins the authority’s charging proposals. The CAA have further met with industry representatives to discuss not only the charges but the cost base on which the charges have been based, leading to an open and transparent dialogue.
