一般空域信息
巴尔干半岛是受控空域，具有空中导航服务 (ANS) 结构，其中某些空域仍由北约和/或科索沃部队 (KFOR) 负责。科索沃上空从地面到 FL205 的空域的 ANS 由北约授权的普里什蒂纳空中导航服务提供商 (ANSP) 提供。该空域由管制区 (CTR) 和管制区域 (CTAS) 组成，被归类为“D”空域。在 CTR 和 CTA 之外的空域被归类为“G”空域。GAT 打算在科索沃上空的“G”级空域中飞行，需要事先获得批准。
科索沃上空 FL205 至 FL660 的空中导航服务将由 HungaroControl 提供。该空域被确定为 KFOR 区域，仅用于 ANS 目的，被归类为“C”空域。但是，匈牙利在科索沃上空 FL205 至 FL660 的空域不行使主权，国家飞机将保持关闭状态。
国际民航组织规则的例外
巴尔干半岛的空域结构是根据国际民航组织标准与监视系统 (SARPS) 定义的，但低于平均海平面 (AMSL) 10,000 英尺的 250 节指示空速 (IAS) 限制除外，这项限制不适用于北约军事空中交通。

GENERAL AIRSPACE INFORMATION
Balkans is controlled airspace with an Air Navigation Service (ANS) structure in which certain portions of the airspace are still under NATO and/or Kosovo Forces (KFOR) responsibility. The ANS in the airspace over Kosovo from ground up to FL205 is provided by Pristina Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP), under delegation by NATO. This airspace consists of Control Zones (CTRS) and Control Areas (CTAS) classified as "D" airspace. Outside of CTRS and CTAS the airspace is classified as "G" airspace. A prior approval is required for GAT intending to operate in class "G" airspace over Kosovo.
The provision of Air Navigation Services in the airspace over Kosovo, from FL205 to FL660, will be provided by HungaroControl. In this airspace, identified as KFOR Sector for ANS purposes only, is classified as "C" airspace. However, Hungary exercises no sovereign powers in the airspace over Kosovo, FL205 to FL660, will remain closed for the overflight of State aircraft.
EXEPTION TO ICAO RULES
The airspace structure of the Balkans is defined per ICAO SARPS, except the 250kts Indicated Air Speed (IAS) restriction below 10000ft Above Mean Sea Level (AMSL) that does not apply to NATO military air traffic.
FLIGHT PLANNING AND COMMON BALKANS PROCEDURES

AIRSPACE FLOW MANAGEMENT - FLIGHT REQUEST AND SLOT ALLOCATION
General Procedures
The airports are the transportation agency controlling slot times for all fixed-wing airlift aircraft arriving in and departing from the Balkans region. Prior Permission Required (PPR)/Slot requests for intra-theatre flights to/from airports/landing sites are to be submitted. Similarly, if the user itinerary includes a mix of Kosovo and North Macedonia airports then each of the airfields must also receive the slot request application. Requests are to be typed, not hand written. Requests submitted on superseded editions, or that are unreadable or incomplete will be returned to the sender without consideration. Any request submitted without appropriate valid accompanying documentation or approval will be rejected.
Procedures for Pristina International Airport
Commercial Flights
The Schedule Facilitation Unit of Pristina International Airport is responsible for the coordination and assignment of airport slots, taking into consideration airport capacity. The Unit confirms the arrival/departure times at/from Pristina International Airport and on a permanent basis will give advice on airport capacity to commercial air carriers, and HUMRO flights for which a permit has been issued by the Department of Civil Aviation (DCA). The exchange of messages shall be done as per International Air Transport Association (IATA) Standard Schedules Information Manual (SSIM).
NOTE:
Slot requests/Schedule Movement Advice for commercial air carriers into Pristina International Airport shall be submitted as per IATA SSIM Messages.

Aircraft not adhering to airport slot times may be denied landing clearance and future user requests may be subject to conditional review. Aircraft may be up to 10 minutes early or 20 minutes late on the arrival/departure times, but a late arrival should make every effort to avoid a late departure. Late arrivals are not to exceed their scheduled time on the ground.

Carriers who fail to coordinate changes with the airport may be subject to landing and take-off clearance delays or possible denial.
Changes required on the day of flight should be addressed directly to the airfield concerned. Each airfield is authorized to approve same day slot changes and user request cancellations at its own discretion.
NOTE 1:
A change to a larger aircraft type may only be approved if a slot is available.
NOTE 2:
If departure slot window is missed any subsequent slot window on same day for same call sign at same airfield will be in jeopardy. Retention or re-assignment of subsequent slot windows will be at the airport discretion.

Aircraft must carry passenger/cargo manifests on all flights and should not depart any location without accurate passenger/cargo manifests on file. Manifests must be presented to the appropriate airport ground personnel on request. If a manifest cannot be provided, the aircraft will be given an airport slot time to depart without offloading.

Airport operations should be contacted directly by telephone for the flight coordination of Emergency and MEDEVAC situations requiring immediate action.
