The Government decided today in the Council of State that Norway is to conclude an air services agreement with Poland. The agreement concerns the right to operate air services between the two countries. Under the agreement, the Norwegian airlines designated to provide such services are entitled to operate routes from all international civilian airports in Norway to destinations in Poland.

Separate agreements with identical wording will be concluded between Poland and Denmark and Sweden respectively.

The agreement will replace the previous agreement of 17 January 1961.

When the agreement is signed, Norway will designate SAS Norge ASA to operate air services between Norway and Poland.
