Guyana wraps up negotiations on air services pacts with eight countries

Guyana participated in the 12th International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Air Services Negotiation Event (ICAN2019) from December 2nd to December 6th in Aqaba, Jordan, where it concluded the negotiation of Air Services Agreements with eight countries.

In a statement issued on Friday, the Guyana Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) said Guyana was able to conclude negotiation of Air Services Agreements with Senegal, Seychelles, The Bahamas, Paraguay, Saudi Arabia, Germany, Greece and Spain.

The eight Air Services Agreements were initialed and Memoranda of Understanding were signed with the countries at the technical level, pending signature at the ministerial level. The statement noted that Air Services Agreements initialed and Memoranda of Understanding are provisionally applicable until the Air Services Agreements are signed by both parties and enter into force. “This means that the negotiated agreements are immediately applicable for traffic rights between Guyana and these countries,” it said.
