‘Flightpath to the future’ is a strategic framework for the aviation sector that supports the Department for Transport’s vision for a modern, innovative and efficient sector over the next 10 years.

This 10-point plan focuses on how government and industry can work together to deliver a successful aviation sector of the future.

In 2018, the government published a consultation on its long-term ambitions for aviation entitled Aviation 2050. We published a response on one area of the consultation, in 2019, relating to legislation for enforcing the development of airspace change proposals.

Given the unprecedented challenges aviation has faced as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the government has decided not to publish a further formal response to the remaining parts of that consultation.

Instead, this strategic framework builds on the responses received to Aviation 2050 and establishes our ambitions and commitments for aviation over the next 10 years.
