    This paper focuses on the economic regulation of airports in Central Europe and in the world, but also focuses in detail on the method of implementing economic regulation in the Slovak Republic, which results from the transposition of Directive 2009/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on airport charges. The introductory part of the paper explains in detail the theory needed for a comprehensive understanding of this task, such as the basic characteristics of the airport and the economics of airports. Due to need for a comprehensive solution to the topic, the airport was examined from an operational point of view, and for the purpose of determining the scope of regulation, the paper also focuses on the characteristics of aviation and non-aviation activities. Paper characterizes the various approaches to economic regulation of airports in selected countries of the world and the countries of Central Europe, where we focused on the forms and scope of regulation, as well as in the case of EU Member States on the implementation of Directive 2009/12/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on airport charges into national legislation. The most important part of the work a comprehensive summary of the approach to the economic regulation of airports in the Slovak Republic from its onset to the present with an indication of the legislation that regulates it. At the same time, the paper points out possible options of changes in the set system, which are benefits of the paper. Paper uses research methods such as analysis, comparison, and abstraction, as well as graphs, figures, and tables, which facilitate the understanding of the task and the researched issue.

    Unruly passengers on board aircraft
    (University of Zilina, 2021) Lásková, Mariana; Novák Sedláčková, Alena
    Unruly behaviour on board aircraft can cause a minor inconvenience to the other passengers, or else, it can escalate to such a degree where the passengers’ safety is jeopardised. Over the last three decades, the number of unruly passenger incidents has increased dramatically. The frequency and severity of such incidents had become a growing concern of the international community and aviation industry itself. Consequently, different preventive and countermeasures have been implemented to cope and deter such behaviour. The primary aim of this paper is to focus on the legal aspect of trying and prosecuting the offenders who have committed an offence or act that jeopardises the safety of aircraft or good order on board. This was accomplished by analysing the international legal framework governing unruly behaviour, namely the Tokyo Convention of 1963 and its amending Montreal Protocol from 2014. The main factor that was observed is the way how these legal instruments addressed the provisions for trying the alleged offenders and their effectiveness in the deterrence of unruly behaviour. In this paper, formal legal and case-study methods, along with comparative reasoning, were used to analyse the legal instruments. The findings showed that the Tokyo Convention had made a valuable contribution to establishing an international security legal framework. However, considerable deficiencies of this treaty have hindered the global legal uniformity and effective enforcement mechanism. Those shortcomings were to be eliminated by the Montreal Protocol. Nevertheless, the analysis revealed that, while it succeeded to eliminate the most triggering shortcoming of jurisdiction, it failed to address the lack of strong enforcement and has even constrained the powers of in-flight security officers. Regrettably, that proves to impede the achievement of the Montreal Protocol’s objectives, and it sees only a small added value. Hence, further improvements are needed to ensure that it is effective in the realities faced by modern aviation.

    PRÁVNA ÚPRAVA MEDZINÁRODNÉHO CIVILNÉHO LETECTVA
    (Žilinská univerzita v Žiline, 2020) Pudíková, Alžbeta; Novák Sedláčková, Alena
    Aviation is one of the most important types of transport and is one of the fastest growing sectors. Most civil flights are predominantly international in nature, which is an important factor in civil aviation legislation. Main aim of work is to analyse the legislation in civil aviation in the field of international aviation law. The work deals with the definition of the airspace as the space above the state land territory, internal and coastal waters, which is part of the state territory. Each state has complete and absolute sovereignty over the airspace above the territory of the state. The division of airspace, which is analysed in the article, is important for air traffic controllers and for providers of air navigation services. The legal norms that regulate the regime of flights over the defined territories of states are known as freedoms of the air. The authors acquaint the reader with the basic terms and definitions from the theory of law for a proper understanding of the international civil aviation law. We also analysed the most important legal aspects in the international civil aviation which are contained in bilateral conventions. At the end is a list of the most important conventions related to aviation law and protection against acts of unlawful interference. The article concludes with the Slovak Aviation Act as the most important national civil aviation law in the Slovak republic country.
