The fundamental changes in ownership also led to a number of major challenges. Existing structures had to be completely reorganised, a task which Unique (Flughafen Zürich AG) successfully mastered. We were able to extract all the airside functions and infrastructures that are essential for airport business from the operations previously controlled by SAirGroup and now under new ownership, and bring them under our own control.This means that we have eliminated all inter- connections with and dependencies on external providers in the area of airside operations. We can therefore look back on a period of extremely intensive activity. But we still have a very busy time ahead of us, partly due to the step-by-step hand-over of components associated with expansion stage 5, but also in view of the political uncertainties throughout the world and their impacts on international civil aviation, and the ongoing debate on the home front concerning the function, size and operation of Zurich Airport.

  • Remarks of Julie Frederick Association of Professional Flight
    Remarks of Julie Frederick Association of Professional Flight Attendants Before the Advisory Committee for Aviation Consumer Protection Meeting Space Allocated Per Passenger on Aircraft April 14, 2015 Good morning Members of the Advisory Committee. I am here as a representative of the Association of Professional Flight Attendants. The APFA represents the world’s largest air carrier and is the largest main line flight attendant union in the world, with over 25,000 flight attendants. I am pleased to appear before you today to offer a flight attendant’s perspective regarding safety and health concerns relative to the space allocated for customers on board passenger aircraft. We believe we are at a crossroads regarding passenger travel and the customer experience. Driven by the past economic realities of aviation travel, experiences for the coach economy passenger today is often a negative one that increasingly affects safety and security, as well as the overall customer traveling experience. Seat pitch – that is, as you know, the distance between a seat and the seat either in front of or behind another seat – used to be 34 inches. Since deregulation, the air carriers have steadily reduced the seating space for economy passengers as they have increased passenger density. What was once the norm – 34 inches of pitch – is now considered “comfort class or main cabin extra” and comes only at a premium. The gradual shrinking of personal seat space has been accompanied by a new discipline by management on load factors so that more and more flights are full. That is good for our companies’ bottom line but the days of the empty middle seat are a thing of the past.

Dies hatte zur Folge, dass die Flugbesatzung aufgrund des noch zur Ver- fügung stehenden Treibstoffes einen Anflug und eine Landung nach low visibility procedures durchführte, obwohl der Betrieb der Piste 16 auf CAT I beschränkt war. Zum Vorfall beigetragen hat der Umstand, dass die Information nicht übermittelt wurde, dass die Piste 14 für Anflüge und Landungen nach CAT III nicht zur Verfügung stand. Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau Page 2 of 37 Final Report BHP 902 HB-ISE General information on this report This report contains the AAIB’s conclusions on the circumstances and causes of the incident which is the subject of the investigation. In accordance with Annex 13 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation of 7 December 1944 and article 24 of the Federal Air Navigation Law, the sole purpose of the investigation of an aircraft accident or serious incident is to prevent future accidents or serious incidents.

  • S/C/W/163 3 August 2000 ORGANIZATION (00-3257)
    WORLD TRADE RESTRICTED S/C/W/163 3 August 2000 ORGANIZATION (00-3257) Council for Trade in Services DEVELOPMENTS IN THE AIR TRANSPORT SECTOR SINCE THE CONCLUSION OF THE URUGUAY ROUND PART ONE Note by the Secretariat This Note has been produced at the request of the Council for Trade in Services in the framework of the review of the Air Transport Annex which stipulates in paragraph 5 that "The Council for Trade in Services shall review periodically, and at least every five years, developments in the air transport sector and the operation of this Annex with a view to considering the possible further application of the Agreement in this sector.". The Secretariat has been asked through the Council for Trade in Services to update document S/C/W/59, dated 5 November 1998 and document S/C/W/129, dated 15 October 1999. This Note addresses both the economic and regulatory developments in the sector, in both a historical (1993) and contemporary (1999) framework. Since the Annex provides no definition of the sector, the paper tries to encompass all aspects of air transport and air transport-related services following the model of the former Secretariat document S/C/W/59 on the same subject examined during the exchange of information program in 1998. It largely draws on this document as well as on ICAO publications and in particular, the annual report "The World of Civil Aviation" (first edition, 1992). Additional professional sources such as IATA documents and press sources have also been used. As indicated during the Council session held on July 2000, the Council requested due to time constraints, that the document be in three parts.
