EU–US Open Skies Agreement

Ok kiddo, there's something called the eu–us open skies agreement! It's a big deal because it's an agreement between the United States and the European Union about how airplanes can fly between those places.

Before this agreement, airplanes from the U.S. could only fly to certain places in Europe and had to stop in specific countries before going on to other destinations. The same thing happened with planes coming from Europe to the U.S. But now, this agreement lets airplanes fly from pretty much anywhere in Europe to anywhere in the U.S, and vice versa, without having to stop in a middle stop, as long as both countries agree to it.

This makes things easier for airlines and passengers because it means they don't have to stop and switch planes in another country. There are also more options for flights and cheaper prices.

So, that's what the eu–us open skies agreement is all about. It's just an agreement that lets airplanes fly directly from the U.S. to Europe and back again, without any unnecessary stopping in between.
