De Forenede Stater har haft frit spil, for de kunne med en række medlemsstater indgå såkaldte »open sky«-aftaler for yderligere at kunne komme ind på vort marked, om jeg så må sige, oven på den kendsgerning, at de allerede havde visse fordele, som vore selskaber ikke havde på deres marked.
The United States has had carte blanche : it has been able to conclude open-sky agreements with a number of Member States which allowed it to penetrate our market further still, in addition to the fact that it already enjoyed certain advantages which our airlines did not have on the US market.
