  • 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.

  • Timefortravel: First Steps to Recovery in Ukraine As Heinemann Partnership Stores Reopen
    #TimeForTravel: First steps to recovery in Ukraine as Heinemann partnership stores reopen While “a crisis like no other” (in the words of the International Monetary Fund) rages, it is important to identify and highlight the sectors of the aviation, tourism and travel retail business that are beginning more rapidly, to recover. In this column, we bring you regular updates about how airports, airlines, travel retailers and brands are planning for and investing in the recovery; how governments are opening borders; and how various stakeholders are shaping up for the new normal. Please send your contributions to [email protected]. FOR UPDATES FROM 20 JUNE ONWARDS, CLICK HERE 20 June Ukraine Alexander Kolomytsev, Deputy Director General at the Gebr Heinemann partnership in Ukraine, BFGH Travel Retail, reports that the stores at Boryspil International, Igor Sikorsky Kyiv International and Odessa International airports have reopened. “First steps to recovery!” he writes. “The recovery path is hard and slow, but we returned stronger and prepared, proud and brand new, with an increased liquor, tobacco and confectionery Premium Taste shop in KBP (Boryspil International). We welcome all passengers of Ukraine to enjoy the modern advanced ambience of the shop, selected products and attractive price offers.” 19 June – #TimeForTravel Estonia Baltic Sea cruise-ferry company Tallink has extended the number of services on its Tallinn-Turku route this Summer due to strong demand, a move that should also boost the crucial onboard revenue shopping channel. The new temporary route, served by the Baltic Queen vessel, was only launched on Monday but a surge in bookings has led to the company adding 12 more return trips in late July and early August.
