13. Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 200513 The Single European Sky Initiative While the new regulations on the airspace provide a more efficient system, the airports will become the real bottle-neck for aviation.

14. Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 200514 The Single European Sky Initiative In order to increase the actual ‘runway’ capacity in Europe, there are three options:  enlarge, build new airports  better use of existing ones, including regional airports  improve the efficiency and management at existing airports

15. Politecnico di Milano 20-21 Gennaio 200515 The Single European Sky Initiative While the first solution is very difficult to achieve due to costs and long-term planning, (enlarge/ build new airports) the first solution is very difficult to achieve due to costs and long-term planning, (enlarge/ build new airports) the second is certainly being exploited whenever possible, but with certain conditions (regional airports) the second is certainly being exploited whenever possible, but with certain conditions (regional airports) the third one, if properly implemented, could be applied at any airport and, comparatively will be cost-effective and time-saving (improve efficiency & management) the third one, if properly implemented, could be applied at any airport and, comparatively will be cost-effective and time-saving (improve efficiency & management) So…So…
