The Single European Sky (SES) initiative aims to improve air traffic management and navigation services by integrating European airspace. Single European Sky (SES) initiative aims to achieve shorter flight times due to reduced delays and more efficient paths. As a result, it can lead to lower flight costs and decreased aircraft emissions. The stated advantages of SES include the potential to triple airspace capacity, halve air traffic management costs, enhance safety significantly, and reduce aviation’s environmental impact by up to 10%.
