List of Air Carriers of Which All Operations are Subject to a Ban within the Community

European Commission

2010

The European Commission subjects airlines flying to and from Community airports to regular safety and maintenance standards inspections; those airlines who fail to adhere to EU standards are banned from using EU airports.  This list contains all such banned airlines, and was last updated on 30/03/2010.  It is important to note that this is not a comprehensive list of all global airlines that do not meet EU standards; only those which have sought to use EU airports.  Further, EU inspections occur at random and may not catch all airlines failing to adhere to EU standards.  Those caveats in mind, this list is a useful tool - to be cross-checked with other means of judging local airlines' safety standards and records - when seeking to compile lists of do and don't use airlines.
