The dilemma in the liberalization of freedoms of the air and its alleviation
The Overall Plan for the Construction of Hainan Free Trade Port has made it clear to support trial im-plementation of the seventh freedom of the air,and the concrete system and mechanism for its implementation ha-ven't yet been established though.The changing law of international air traffic freedom determines that the im-plementation of freedom of the air has the characteristics of liberalization,is mainly implemented in the mode of bilateral air transport agreements,and features the dominance of some major air transport powers.The imple-mentation of freedom of the air is mainly promoted and led by the United States,prudently joined by the Europe-an Union and actively followed up by countries in the Asia Pacific region.However,the liberalization of free-dom of the air faces the dilemmas that the implementation of freedom of the air has difficulty in its integration into the multilateral system,and its multilateral system benefiting all the countries has not yet been formed.Un-der the strategic background of building Hainan Free Trade Port,China is expected to establish its leading posi-tion in the bilateral system of the implementation of freedom of the air through compacting the mature template for negotiation.Further,the pilot implementation of the seventh freedom of the air in the overall plan should be exploited as the basis and origin to promote the regional multilateral system of implementation of freedom of the air.Meantime,Hainan Free Trade Port Law of the People's Republic of China should be treated as the legal basis to refine the design and implementation of system for freedoms of the air.
