Supranational as well as international regulations and authorities shape the regulatory field in aviation. As such, national authorities have few competencies in terms of implementing aviation regulations. In this chapter, different regulations and their respective bodies are presented and explained. Beginning with the basic regulations of the Chicago Convention and the freedoms of air, the industry-wide basis is presented. Furthermore, supranational authorities regulate aviation worldwide, which is exemplified by the UNO body called ICAO. On a European level, EASA is concerned with regulating important aspects. Regulations also shape the airspace by dividing it into different classes and types, accompanied by specific rules to ensure safety. Also from a consumer perspective, supranational and European laws protect passengers by awarding them with special rights in the case of damage or delays.
