EUROPLANE Philosophy
Challenges, questions and solutions on the development
of regional airports in Europe are very similar for the
regional authorities' and the airports’ representatives.
This ensures a high grade of exchangeability of knowhow, experiences and problem solutions among the
EUROPLANE partners.
By the development of regional airports the development
of regions can be enhanced.

airports in EU objective 1 regions
• To increase the utilisation of the regional airport's Public Transport System by
improved passenger information infrastructure
• To improve the information exchange and co-operation between regional authorities,

presentation towards the public.
Improved networking among involved cross sector
parties and facilitated exchange of condensed
information;

Interregional resolutions toward EU institutions in
case findings confirm disadvantages in regional
development (e.g.: lack of financial resources for
airport development),
Change and improvement of European and/ or
national regional development policy

airport, an important facility within the infrastructure in the
region contributing to the overall economic viability of the
area.
• increases the region’s attractiveness and accessibility of
their airport/ region by new flight connections.
• makes more effective use of European instruments for
regional development in future to bring benefits for the
region. (Objective of INTERREG III C )

EUROPLANE Benefits (2)
EUROPLANE
• opens access to EU funding for essential studies and
assessments. Most of the studies would have been
necessary sooner or later, but without EU funding they
would have to be financed 100 % by the state.
• enables access to professional air transort expertise and
using experience gained from the successfully completed
SEABIRD and SEAPLANE projects.
• improves access and new contacts to authorities of other
EU regions but also to airlines and other airports for better
co-operation opportunities.
• promotes the region’s identity and visibility within Europe.
