Enhance Airport Operations

• All decision making and tactical operations to be
  based on most recent data available / real time
• Actual push back times
• Actual arrival times at the runway
• Relevant Operational data is shared and updated
• The network must be more responsive and reactive
  to the actual real life situation and then deal
  with traffic in a much more flexible way

5
Enhance Airport Operations

• Minimise impact of delays due to late arrival of
  inbound flights recovery
• Reduce engine time / waiting time at runway
• Optimise pre-departure sequence and departure
  queue
• Reduce late Aircraft stand and gate changes

6
Optimizing arrival flows

• Consider application of Airport CDM also in the
  arrival phase of flight
• Slots reflecting arrival times at runway
• Explore application of First Scheduled First
  Served principle in the tactical phase to improve
  arrival punctuality
• Use circular holdings at all airports and combine
  these with the use of linear holdings
• Consider arrival traffic bunching (e.g. bunch
  medium type of aircraft in the arrival stream)

7
Management of unusual situations

• Better reaction to and recovery from unusual
  situations
• Mitigate extensive delays at some airports due
  to adverse weather conditions
• Harmonise airport procedures
• e.g. separation minima upon final during bad
  weather cross wind value at airports
• Integration of the available MET expertise in
  flow management

Quality control and management of ATFM
regulations

• Integrate airports in the ATM Network
• Locate systematic inappropriate use of ATFM
  regulations
• Diminish the frequent use of ATC/aerodrome
  capacity related ATFM arrival regulations at
  coordinated airports

10
Common Objectives

• Coordinate scheduling between airports/airlines
  and ATM units at an earlier phase
• Include airports in the Eurocontrol capacity
  planning process
• Harmonized Airport CDM implementation
• Adhere to Airport Slots
• Reduce Airport ATFM Delay
• Enhance Runway Capacity through HIRO application
