ADVISORY CIRCULAR DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration I Washington, D.C. Subject: PLANNING AND DESIGN OF AIRPORT TERMINAL BUILDING FACILITIES AT NONHUB LOCATIONS i 1. PURPOSE. This advisory circular provides guidance material fbr t planning and design of airport terminal buildings at nonhub locations. 2. RELATED READING MATERIAL. Appendix 1 contains a listing of documents containing supplemental material relating to terminal building planning and design. Ordering information is also contained therein. 3. BACKGROUND. Advisory Circular (AC) 15015360-7, Planning and Design considerations -for Airport Terminal Building Development, provides guidance for the planning and design of airport terminals. The material contained within it is applicable to all airports serving air carriers, regardless of size. Because of this wide range of coverage, the material is necessarily very general in nature and of limited usefulness in pro- viding detailed planning guidance, particularly for less sophisticated, low activity airports. 'To remedy this, a contract was awarded to the airport facility consulting firm of Arnold Thompson Associates, Inc., to provide assistance in the development of guidance material for the planning of terminal building facilities at nonhub locations. The nonhub category of airports was chosen as it represents a range of airports with relatively unsophisticated and uniform characteristics. The results of this contractual effort are presented in this circular. I *hi% WILLIAM-V. VITALE - Director, Office of Airport Standards Initiated by: AAS-200 CONTENTS Chapter 1.

  • What Do Travelers Expect of Airport Terminals?
    2/26/2020 Airport Magazine - December 2019/January 2020 - What Do Travelers Expect Of Airport Terminals? What Do Travelers Expect Of Airport Terminals? BY JOSEPH CHANG, RA i New terminal designs not only are adding needed capacity to meet growing traveler volumes, but recent passenger surveys conclude that they are improving traveler satisfaction (J.D. Power 2018 Passenger Satisfaction Survey). https://www.airportmagazine-digital.com/airportmagazine/december_2019_january_2020/MobilePagedArticle.action?articleId=1548638&app=false#articleId1548638 1/6 2/26/2020 Airport Magazine - December 2019/January 2020 - What Do Travelers Expect Of Airport Terminals? ir travel remains a stressful experience for many travelers, but increased efforts to improve the basic drivers of passenger satisfaction — clean modern facilities, A efficient security processes, courteous staff, and better dining and shopping options — are making airports a less stressful part of the journey. Beyond meeting these practicalities, airports are undertaking new designs to create terminals where travelers enjoy spending their time. How terminal designs enrich and provide travelers a genuinely rewarding experience often depend on the trip’s purpose and individual traveler personas formed by culture, personality, gender, physical and cognitive condition. Business travelers want terminal designs and services that deliver convenience, control of their travel options, and facilities that enhance "on-the-go" productivity and promote personal well-being. As a group, they are more apt to embrace technology to speed their way through airport processes. A survey of business travelers (Egencia Business Travel and Technology Survey, July 2017) found that 50 percent of global respondents would avoid human interaction on the road unless they are having a problem.

Introduction This report looks at airport rail links in the planning stage, and is largely based on an IARO workshop held at Heathrow Airport, London, UK, in November 2014. Using examples of airport rail links in which IARO members have been involved, it seeks to answer the following questions: • Can we forecast air-rail link patronage? • Why do some plans succeed, and others fail? • Should we plan in-house or use consultants? • How do we get stakeholders involved? • Who pays and how do we negotiate between stakeholders? • What opportunities are there for IARO members? The examples discussed at the workshop were the Western Rail Access to Heathrow (WRAtH) project, the Glasgow Airport TramTrain Link, plus a number of projects in the USA.

  • 1 International Civil Aviation Organization Airport
    INTERNATIONAL CIVIL AVIATION ORGANIZATION AIRPORT PRIVATIZATION SEMINAR FOR THE NAM/CAR/SAM REGIONS (Guatemala City, 13-16 December 1999) Control and Monitoring Measures States should apply in a Privatised Airports Environment AIRPORT OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY by Michiel C L Vreedenburgh Regional Officer, Aerodromes and Ground Aids International Civil Aviation Organization North American, Central American and Caribbean Regional Office, Mexico 1 Introduction 1.1 The main ICAO objectives are to, amongst others, develop the principles and techniques of international air navigation and to foster the planning and development of international air transport so as to: · Ensure Safe and orderly growth of international civil aviation; · Ensure Safe, regular, efficient and economical air transport; and · Encourage the development of airways, airports, air navigation facilities and services. In a privatised airport environment, there is a need for States to regulate and oversee the airport management and operation to ensure the above objectives. 1.2 The principal aspects related to airport management and operation which require appropriate regulation include the following: · Operational Safety · Aviation Security · Operational Efficiency · Development Planning · Environmental Protection · Financial Efficiency 1.3 Some of the benefits of implementing airport privatization programmes are known to be related to efficiency and investment, and also the impact on the user and customer, passengers and airlines, including improved levels of service and customer orientation. Preservation of operational efficiency standards is however not guaranteed, particularly with conflicting interests between the different stakeholders. State regulation of operational efficiency is therefore considered prudent to ensure that the interests of airport users and customers in relation to operational efficiency, as well as safety, are safeguarded.

  • “The Airport Runway Is the Most Important Mainstream in Any Town.”
    CHAPTER 3 DEVELOPMENT OF AIRPORT CAPACITY “The airport runway is the most important mainstream in any town.” ~ Norm Crabtree CHAPTER 3 DEVELOPMENT OF AIRPORT CAPACITY 3 Development of Airport Capacity The FAA’s Office of Airport Planning and Programming serves as the principal organization of the FAA responsible for all Airports program matters pertaining to national airport planning, environmental and social requirements, airport grants, property transfers, passenger facility charges, and ensuring adequacy of the substantive aspects of FAA rulemaking actions relating to these programs. The Office of System Capacity participates in the planning of capacity strategies for major U.S. airports, which includes assessing the technical feasibility of new systems and equipment. This chapter summarizes capacity enhancements that are being achieved through airport development, major airport construction projects and the analyses necessary to support airport development. These analyses include airport design team studies and airport capacity benchmark- ing, as well as quantifying the benefits of potential capacity projects. Chapter 3 also summarizes other programs and activities affecting airport development, and includes a description of the resources funding these activities. 3.1 Capacity Enhancement Through Airport Construction Projects There are two main strategies for enhancing airport capacity: build new runways and maximize the efficiency of existing runways. In 2003, new runways were completed at Miami International, Denver International, George Bush Intercontinental, and Orlando International airports. Following are some highlights of these projects, which generally can take up to ten years to plan, construct and commission. Miami’s Runway 8/26 construction project, completed in September 2003, took 51 months— 15 months for design and 36 for the contract awarding process and construction.
