ACI EUROPE, together with A4E and IATA, has published an open letter to the President of the European Commission regarding the implementation of the Schengen Entry/Exit System (EES).

The industry is therefore calling for immediate and pragmatic flexibility during peak traffic periods, especially throughout the busy summer months.
