Airport

The increasing air traffic means a great challenge for airports. Development in terms of infrastructure, systems, processes and procedures is a must in today's changing environment. Process harmonisation and synchronising among various partners is a key for success. All of the stakeholders must be able to access the information required for the smooth operation of the "airport-machine".

The experts of Slot Consulting on the basis of their present or earlier professions can cover all four main players at an airport: ATC, aircraft operator, airport operator, handling agent. Besides some of the experts have a remarkable experience in airport capacity management, slot allocation and emergency operations.
