Abstract: This article examines the economic impacts on the United States east coast regions of the EU--US Open Skies Agreement that liberalized air service over the North Atlantic. It considers the link between air travel volumes before and after the Agreement and the economies of the main metropolitan areas. It finds, using a number of model specifications, that the economic impacts of air traffic increased after the enactment of the Agreement.
