EU lawmakers act to address 'unfair' airline competition rules

EU lawmakers act to address 'unfair' airline competition rules:

"Non-EU carriers could see their rights to fly in the bloc revoked if they or their home countries engage in “unfair” competitive practices under rules voted on by a European Parliament committee on Tuesday.

Some EU airlines, notably Air France-KLM (AIRF.PA) and Lufthansa (LHAG.DE), have long complained about what they see as unfair competition from carriers such as those in the Gulf region - Emirates, Etihad and Qatar Airways - whom they accuse of receiving illegal state subsidies.

The three airlines have vehemently denied such claims."
