Description: NBAA: Privatization of U.S. Air Traffic Control Bad for Business Aviation

The National Business Aviation Association expects to see proposals soon in the House of Representatives, supported by the Trump administration, for the privatization of the air traffic control system, which may benefit major U.S. airlines while harming business aviation. NBAA president and CEO Ed Bolen explains why the association doesn’t support this proposal.

 


U.S. President Donald Trump’s “America First” doctrine has encouraged some U.S. airlines to lobby for new policies that may benefit them, including limiting market access for some foreign airlines.
