Henrik Hololei, the EU’s top transport civil servant, estimated that demand for flights would rise 15 per cent this summer over 2022. At the same time. Russia’s war in Ukraine has limited European airspace, adding to pressure on the region’s already overcrowded skies. Mr Hololei, head of DG Move, the EU’s transport directorate, acknowledged that the increased number of flights combined with limited airspace added to the risk of disrupted flights this summer.
