At the level of this article to understand the potential economic effects of an “open skies” agreement, in particular on competition, prices and airline profits. We will try in a first part to determine if consumers will benefit from price reductions following the entry into force of an Open Sky agreement, we will also try to see the effects of “open sky” agreements on competition.
