Abstract:
The research project that is presented belongs to the Commercial law field. However, due to the special features of the topic analyzed, it can be stated that this work is a transversal job between Commercial Law, Air Law, Administrative Law, International Law and economical doctrine. The main objective of this thesis is to analyse whether the Spanish air market structure complies with the European law of the competition right, in particular Article 102 of the Treaty of Functioning of the European Union and the internal normative, namely Article 2 of Law 15/2007 from July 3rd of Defense of the Competition. Ultimately, it is analysed if the Spanish operator “Aena Aeropuertos, S.A.” holds a dominant position in the Spanish air market and if it abuses of this position in the market, contravening the existing corporate legislation. To achieve the established objective, the European and Spanish Law and Jurisprudence in the air infrastructures field is reviewed in depth, as well as the more relevant economical and juridical doctrine in this matter. It is also discussed the main airport models in Comparative Law.
