FAQ n.137861

What are the limits of the higher airspace?

Answer

The lower and upper limits of the higher airspace are not clearly delineated. The lower limits depend on the classification of airspace and services provided today in Member States and vary between FL500 and FL660. The upper limit is linked to the issue of the delineation between airspace and space and is a larger question, not yet solved at international level. It is probably in the range between 80 and 120 km altitude.
