THE HAGUE - The Council of State has given a positive advice for an aviation treaty with Mexico and Iceland. The treaties are about the performance of scheduled services between Curaçao and the countries.
In May, Minister Wopke Hoekstra of Foreign Affairs sent a letter to the Dutch House of Representatives for approval of various treaties on aviation services. This sets out the conditions under which airlines of both countries can operate air services between and via each other's territory. Furthermore, the protocols regarding safety, security and prices are also mentioned.
Hoekstra has informed the House of Representatives in writing about the approval that has been given. The treaties mean that flights will soon be allowed to fly to Hato airport from both Mexico and Iceland.
