Civil Aviation Act 1990

International air services licensing - Open aviation market licences

87V: Duration of open aviation market licence

You could also call this:

“How long an open aviation market licence lasts and what happens when it's renewed”

An open aviation market licence is a type of permission for airlines. When you get this licence, it starts working from the date written on it. The person in charge, called the Secretary, decides how long the licence lasts. For airlines from other countries, the Secretary can make the licence last forever if they want to.

If you already have a licence and you ask for it to be renewed, something special happens. If the people checking your request haven’t finished by the time your old licence runs out, your licence keeps working until they make a decision. But the Secretary can say no to this if they want to.
