U.S., Macedonia reach open skies agreement    The United States and Macedonia on Thursday reached an open skies aviation agreement, which will allow airlines of both countries to select routes, destinations and prices for passenger and cargo services based on consumer demand and market conditions.
   It's the first aviation agreement between the two countries.
   Open skies agreements allow unrestricted access by the airlines of each side to fly to, from and beyond the other's territory, without restriction on how often carriers fly, the kind of aircraft they use and the prices they charge.
   The agreement makes Macedonia the 103rd U.S. open skies partner.
