  • ACI World AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT NEWS
    Issue 01 – 2012 ACI World AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT NEWS A service provided by ACI World in cooperation with Momberger Airport Information www.mombergerairport.info Editor & Publisher: Martin Lamprecht [email protected] / Founding Editor & Publisher: Manfred Momberger EUROPE Great Britain: Plymouth Airport could become a GBP 25 million to 30 million ‘world-class international gateway’ under plans being worked on by a group of business people campaigning to save it. On 23 December 2011, the Viable group unveiled a vision for the Derriford site which would see the runway extended, a new terminal built, and land turned over for lucrative commercial use. Viable will discuss the plans with Plymouth City Council. The Sutton Harbour Group (SHG), which operates Plymouth on a 150-year-lease from Plymouth City Council, closed the airport on 23 December 2011 saying it is not economically sustainable. But Viable, which opposed the closure, disagrees with the suggestion that Plymouth cannot support a top-class aerodrome. Basing its design on London City Airport, Viable envisages a facility that could eventually handle up to 1 million passengers a year. The phased project would take up to ten years to fully realize, initially seeing the reopening of the airport with restricted operations and limited services. But the group said that after about three years, the operation could be expanded dramatically. Its vision is for the runway to be extended from 1160 m to its maximum 1390 m, so larger aircraft can be welcomed. A runway loop would mean aircraft can wait for take-off slots, diminishing delays. But ahead of this, a simple initial resurfacing of the runway would only cost GBP 500 000, Viable said, a quarter of the expected cost.

  • The Contribution of Global Alliances to Airlines' Environmental Performance
    sustainability Article The Contribution of Global Alliances to Airlines’ Environmental Performance Belén Payán-Sánchez , Miguel Pérez-Valls * and José Antonio Plaza-Úbeda Economics and Business Department, University of Almería, Ctra. Sacramento s/n, La Cañada de San Urbano, 04120 Almería, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 June 2019; Accepted: 22 August 2019; Published: 24 August 2019 Abstract: Global alliances have traditionally been related to improvements in the economic and operational performances of companies, particularly in the airline industry. However, we still do not know the effect of the participation in this kind of multilateral agreement on the environmental performance of airlines. The main aim of this work is to analyze whether the alliance membership of airlines has an effect upon their environmental performance, and if so, whether or not the characteristics of the global alliance, as well as the business model of the airline, may influence this relation to a greater or lesser extent. The results of regression and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) in a sample of 252 airlines (58 included in one of the three global alliances: Star Alliance, Oneworld, and SkyTeam) show a strong and inverse relationship between environmental performance and belonging to an alliance. The paper also shows empirical evidence of the influence of the business model of the airline on environmental performance. These results suggest important implications for managers facing challenges regarding sustainability. Keywords: global alliances; sustainability; environmental performance; airlines; aviation 1. Introduction The aviation sector is the fastest-growing source of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide [1]. Many authors and corporations, such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA), agree that environmental sustainability may be achieved through external pressure with the imposition and accomplishment of different policies, regulations, taxations and other fiscal instruments [2–6].

    Runway to Recovery The United States Framework for Airlines and Airports to Mitigate the Public Health Risks of Coronavirus Guidance Jointly Issued by the U.S. Departments of Transportation, Homeland Security, and Health and Human Services Version 1.1 | December 2020 CONTENTS – 03 Overview 07 Principles 09 Air Transportation Stakeholder Roles and Responsibilities 11 A Risk-Based Approach for COVID-19 Outbreak Mitigation Planning 14 Public Health Risk Mitigation in the Passenger Air Transportation System 49 Future Areas of Research and Evaluation for Public Health Risk Mitigations 51 Implementation Challenges Specific to International Travel 53 Appendix A: Key Partners and Decision-Makers OVERVIEW A safe, secure, efficient, and resilient air transportation system is essential to our Nation’s physical, economic, and social health. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) public health emergency has demonstrated that protecting public health in the air transportation system is just as critical as aviation safety and security to the confidence of the flying public. Government, aviation, and public health leaders have been working together—and must continue to do so—to meaningfully reduce the public health risk and restore passenger, aviation workforce (including aircrew), and public confidence in air travel. The U.S. Government continues to assess the evolving situation and the effectiveness of actions and recommendations implemented to date. This updated guidance reflects this continual assessment and updated information. Although there are some updates and adjustments throughout, the key additions and changes in this document include new information on: » Passenger and Aviation Workforce Education » Contact Tracing » Mask Use, specifically the need to accommodate those who cannot wear masks » Passenger Testing This document provides the U.S.
