"The Air Navigation Bureau says that if the control of airspace is transferred to the Somali Civil Aviation Authority, the vertical separation for planes in Somalia will be reduced from the current 1000ft to 2000ft. Some routes will be closed and other routes will be restricted. This contingency plan will significantly reduced the number of planes that can use Somali airspace.
ICAO cites safety concerns, but as some aviation experts point out, these restrictive measures included in their contingency plan are not currently in place, leading many to believe that money, not safety, is the driving factor behind this decision."
