Sep 10, 2019 (newstodate): The issue of rights to ply Russian airspace on the trans-Siberian lanes remains a constant nuisance for Western airports - and a crucial topic in aviation talks.
One example is provided by the Russian/Czech rift in air services during this summer.
From the start of July 2019, Aeroflot was thus denied permits by the Czech authorities to operate flights between Moscow and Prague, and Pobeda was also forced to suspend services between the two markets.
Behind the air war was the failure of the aviation authorities to reach an agreement on Czech Airlines' flights between Prague and Seoul on the trans-Siberian routes.
The Czech authorities later lifted the ban on Russian flights to Prague after the two parties agreed to meet for a fresh round of negotiations that will take place on September 13, 2019.
The talks will comprise issues generally relating to the air services between the two countries - with the Siberian overflight rights as a pivotal point.
