Abstract

In ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation) Europe Region, the ATFCM (Air Traffic Flow and Capacity Management) is managed by EUROCONTROL (European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation) for a long time. Planned ATFCM applications on nowadays and future time periods are not well enough to solve the airport congestion in an effective way. In the present case, main purpose of this study is to give alternative solution suggestions for narrow airport capacity and to ease the parking positions by making new departure time offers to the airline operators. In the scope of this study, to create free parking positions in every hour zone, air traffic flows are arranged from the imaginary airports to the target arrival airport in the MS Office Excel programme. According to the results of the study, to the target airport 10 extra flights per day and 3650 extra flights per year may be arranged. Furthermore, it is considered that only type of aircrafts B737-800 and A320 landed and departed to/from the target airport, 1.327.140 extra passengers may be transported annually, as number of A320 is 4 times more than number of B737-800. The possible advantages and disadvantages of this study are discussed in the result section.
