Efficient airport operations depend on appropriate actions and reactions to current
constraints. Local weather events and their impact on airport performance may have network …

The corona pandemic significantly changes the processes of aircraft and passenger
handling at the airport. In our contribution, we focus on the time-critical process of aircraft …

Weather events have a significant impact on airport performance and cause delayed
operations if the airport capacity is constrained. We provide quantification of the individual …

A security control system is the key element at an airport because each passenger must
undergo security check before boarding. Security control must be performed efficiently while …

This article presents some of the results on the implementation of a decentralised delay
management process that we call 4D trajectory adjustments (4DTA) obtained with Mercury …

Reliable and predictable ground operations are essential for punctual air traffic movements.
Uncertainties in the airborne phase have significantly less impact on flight punctuality than …

Efficient boarding procedures have to consider both operational constraints and the
individual passenger behavior. In contrast to the aircraft handling processes of fueling …

Passengers go through different handling processes inside airport terminal buildings. The
quality of these processes is usually measured by the time passengers require and by the …
