New Zealand has concluded a horizontal air service agreement with EU

EU’s horizontal agreement aims at bringing all Member States bilateral agreements with New Zealand to be in line with certain EU provisions. This means that some of the articles in the bilateral agreement between Sweden and New Zealand no longer applies, since they are replaced by the provisions in the horizontal agreement.
