capacity managment and slot allocation.ppt
- 1. There is a natural ebb and flow of economic activity that, at times, can lead to surges in air traffic during certain periods or in certain locations. These surges place an increased demand on the air traffic Capacity is the number of flights that can be handled safely and efficiently in a sector or location during a given time period. Demand is the number of flights that intend to fly in a sector or location during a given time period. If Demand exceeds Capacity, either the capacity or the demand will need to be adjusted and additionally, provide alternatives to customers However, sometimes capacity cannot be increased, so adjusting demand is needed

- 3. ICAO prepared guidance material on infrastructure capacity management and slot allocation ACI Advisor : Greater consideration of the strategies of airports and their region in the slot allocation process Enhancing airport expertise and developing knowledge on airport slot allocation IATA (ACI), (IATA) and the Worldwide Airport Coordinators Group (WWACG) provide a set of standards for the management of airport slots at coordinated airports and of planned operations at facilitated airports
- 4. CAA setting capacities system optimize the use of the available capacity Airport Balancing the Arrival and Departure Capacity for an aerodrome airport should monitor demand for airport infrastructure and develop additional capacity when required to meet that demand Aircraft Operators operating or planning to operate at a airport must submit details of their planned operations before operating at that airport or airspace
- 5. Flow Management Positions data collection allows for the early identification of major demand capacity imbalances ATFCM distribution of flight plans and associated messages ... This could result in slots being issued and/or rerouting of flights Canso offers practical advice on how ANSPs and airport operators can progress their integration initiatives and boost operational performance Air traffic flow management (ATFM) and airport collaborative decision making (A- CDM) are collaborative processes aimed at improving efficiency and optimising resources in airspace and at airports
- 6. FACILITATOR Ensure the feasibility of the plans submitted by an airline so the coordination parameters of the airport are not exceeded Make available to relevant stakeholders details of the coordination parameters and utilization of the declared capacity COORDINATOR Allocate slots to airlines and other aircraft operators in a neutral, transparent, and non-discriminatory way, on the basis of the applicable coordination Make available to relevant stakeholders details of the applicable coordination parameters, local guidelines and regulations, and any other criteria used in the allocation of slots

- 8. : Delay The cost of delay and low reliability can be significans direct costs to airlines and passengers This is an important component of passenger time lost affects the company's flight schedule Missing a connecting flight Cancellassions The cost of Cancellassions direct costs to airlines and passengers Airport and all system Missing a connecting flight consumer dissatisfaction direct impact to airlines and airport Aircraft queueing for the runway Safety hazard
- 9. : Higher fares for late bookings When booking well in advance, it can still be possible to secure cheap air fares at congested airports. However at congested airports there are less of these opportunities available, and air fares can ‘spike’ more steeply, as the date of travel approaches. More ‘premium’ tickets Airlines also respond by dedicating more of their aircraft capacity to ‘premium’ seats at congested airports – i.e. more expensive first- class and business-class seats. More passengers have to purchase premium seats if they wish to fly from these airports, and a reduced number of economy-class seats are made available IMPACTS AIR FARES
- 10. : Higher Average Frequency to Fewer Destinations At congested airports, airlines focus on high-frequency services on high-demand routes. A subset of passengers will pay extra for regular and convenient departure/arrival times. In effect the airline is enacting the equivalent of airport charges ‘peak pricing’
- 11. Strategies
- 12. Optimize the use of the available capacity : • Balancing the Arrival and Departure Capacity for an aerodrome • Changing Configuration or Sector Configuration Negotiating extra capacity : • Reviewing the Monitoring values of the sectors or aerodromes • Reducing the traffic complexity. • Implementing Holding procedure • Re-routeing In the case of aerodromes, by Advancing the traffic that is capable of departing earlier than originally flight planned

All components of the industry are directly or indirectly affected because of capacity or slot allocation : the consequences of the capacity can limit and block the professional commitments of others big impact on cargo area and goods (delivery on time, validity of the goods , penalty for late delivery,;;

- 17. DEFINITION OF A LEVEL 1 AIRPORT is one where the capacity of the airport infrastructure is generally adequate to meet the demands of airport users at all times. 4.1 DEFINITION OF A LEVEL 2 AIRPORT 4.1.2 A Level 2 airport is one where there is potential for congestion during some periods of the day, week, or season, which can be resolved by schedule adjustments mutually agreed between the airlines and facilitator.
