Press Release: Travelling by air? Check if your carrier is safe on the Commission’s new and user-friendly search tool for banned airlines, online today

On 10 April 2014, the European Commission launched an online tool to search the list of airlines that are subject to an operating ban or operational restrictions within the European Union, better known as "the EU Air Safety List".

With the new tool, finding information is easier, faster and more effective. Type in a country, an airline name, or an ICAO airline code and you will know whether or not an airline is on the EU Air Safety List.
