The Airport Company took over the patronage over the reserve and, since 1996, has invested almost 16 million Euros in scientifically monitored re- naturation and maintenance measures, which are carried out to compensate for the sealing of surfaces on the Airport grounds. Since 2016, all constructional interventions and the corresponding com- pensation measures have been documented in an “eco account”. A major project is the grazing of the heathland by herds of Glan cattle, goats, sheep, donkeys and water buffalos. These four-legged “helpers” feed on plants non-endemic to the heathland, which contributes to preserving the typical heath landscape. In addition to this, the Airport renatures moor biotopes, which form the habitat of ca. 700 endangered plant and animal species registered in the Red List. 18 Environmental protection Environmental protection 19 Publisher Staff Unit Corporate Communication Flughafen Köln/Bonn GmbH P.O.

    Translation DE -> EN Low Cost Monitor 1/2014 - A DLR-Analysis - 466 Routes LCC-Routes The current Low Cost Carrier Market in Germany Spring 2014 Current Low Cost Carrier Market in Germany in 2013/2014 The Low Cost Carrier (LCC) market has been an inherent part of the German air transport market. The Low Cost Monitor published by DLR informs twice a year on key features of low cost carrier traffic and current developments in this market segment. These are in particular the number and relative importance of low cost carriers and their supply, including air fares, and passenger demand for low cost transport services. The description of the low cost supply in the current monitor is based on a reference week in the winter timetable 2014. Passenger data refer to the year 2013. Airlines Airlines involved in the low cost business design their offer quite differently. Due to this inhomogeneity only a few distinctive criteria can be defined for the low cost market segment, such as low fares, their general availability and direct sale via the internet. Thus, in some cases, a certain scope of discretion arises when allocating an airline to the LCC segment. Furthermore, amalgamations of business models are seen in several airlines that further complicate the accurate assignment to the low cost market segment. For this issue of the Monitor the authors classify currently a number of 19 airlines (among all airlines operating on German airports) that offer entirely or predominantly low cost offers. These are in detail (s. also Tab. 1): Aer Lingus (EI)
