Freedoms of the air
Freedoms of the air: aviation experts divide the right of airlines to fly through or over their domestic territories into eight categories called freedoms of the air, though only the first six are in common use. The eight are (i) the right to fly over a country, (ii) the right to land in a country to refuel or similar purposes, but not to pick up or set down passengers or cargo, (iii) the right to set down passengers or cargo in another country, (iv) the right to pick up passengers or cargo in another country and set them down in the airline’s home country, (v) the right to carry passengers or cargo between third countries using one’s own country as a hub, (vi) the ability to combine rights acquired under the third and fourth freedoms, (vii) the right to operate air services between third countries entirely outside one's home country, and (viii) the right to provide air services within a country, often called cabotage. These freedoms are usually negotiated between governments on behalf of domestic airlines. See also bilateral air services agreement, Chicago Convention and open-skies agreements.
