Parent company & Subsidiary relationship

English Boards General

Hello all,

I was just wondering what the rules are concerning having a Holding or parent company which now has a subsidiary (perhaps in a different country). Is it legal for the parent company and the subsidiary to have cooperation with regards to Interlining and routes?? Can a parent company have an interlining agreement with a subsidiary in another country or territory??

I read in the Wiki that cooperation between two Holdings controlled by the same person was illegal however I assume that that refers to two completely separate Holdings which have no financial or historical relationship except that they are controlled by the same entity! Is that correct or does it affect subsidiaries too??

parent companies can have IL-agreements with their subsidiarys. That is legal.

Thanks for the clarification.

I also have another question that I can’t seem to get an answer for on the wiki.

If a Holding (A) has a subsidiary ©, does the maintenance cost penalty of operating more than 3 different aircraft family types also transfer to the subsidiary??

In other words, if the subsidiary © operates aircraft family type (4) and (5) which is completely different from the family type (1), (2) and (3) operated by the

parent Holding (A); does that mean the subsidiary © will have to face a maintenance penalty for its aircraft choice??

No, maintenance is considered apart.

All of your questions are answered in the AS Wiki support . There’s a good guide over there.
