Executive Summary

National ATM Context

Member State of:

1(Management board Observer)

The development and modernization of Albania’s transport infrastructure, especially in the aviation sector has been and remains one of the top priorities of the Government of Albania. The aim has been i) to create the preconditions for the development of other sectors of the economy, ii) to increase the accessibility of freight and passengers in trade and service delivery, and iii) to significantly contribute to overall economic growth and development of the economy. The Civil Aviation Authority (ACAA) is a public and self-financed entity, under the Ministry of Infrastructures and Energy responsible for ATM safety regulation in Albania. The establishment of a self-financed and independent Authority has been guaranteed through Law Nr.10233 date 12.03.2010 as amended by Law No. 168/2014 date 10.12.2014 for the Civil Aviation Authority. The ACAA as a regulator is institutionally separated from the ANS service provider, Albcontrol sh.a, which is a joint stock company. Albania CAA and other aviation organizations in Albania are cooperating with EU in several Programs, which aim the full country integration into EU family including aviation community. Albanian Air Navigational Services are provided by Albcontrol Sh.a., which is certified and designated as ATS, CNS, MET and AIS Provider by ACAA. Yet, Albcontrol holds a TO Certification based on EC Reg. 340/2015 as well.

Summary of 2020 developments: The aviation sector in Europe, including in Albania, had to face severe difficulties during the year 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact due to the COVID-19 pandemic is visible in a slower progress for some of the ongoing Objectives. The traffic returns close to the 2019 traffic volume (92%)2 are only expected by the year 2024. From an organisational point of view, significant changes are expected for the year 2021, due to the need to implement cost saving measures as a response to the dramatic decrease in air traffic and to cope with the pandemic situation.. The Objective Electronic Terrain and Obstacle Data (INF07) has been implemented in 2020. The following Objectives are envisaged to be completed during the year 2021: - ASM Support Tools to Support Advanced FUA (AOM19.1), - Voice over Internet Protocol in En-Route (COM11.1), - Voice over Internet Protocol in Airport/Terminal (COM11.2), - New Pan-European Network Service (NewPENS) (COM12), - Aircraft Identification (ITY-ACID); - Ensure Quality of Aeronautical Data and Aeronautical Information (ITY-ADQ), - 8,33 kHz Air-Ground Voice Channel Spacing below FL195 (ITY-AGVCS2); - Surveillance Performance and Interoperability (ITY-SPI).

Introduction

The Local Single Sky ImPlementation (LSSIP) documents, as an integral part of the Master Plan (MP) Level 3 (L3)/LSSIP mechanism, constitute a short/medium term implementation plan containing ECAC States’ actions to achieve the Implementation Objectives as set out by the MP Level 3 and to improve the performance of their national ATM System. This LSSIP document describes the situation in the State at the end of December 2020, together with plans for the next years.

Chapter 1 provides an overview of the ATM institutional arrangements within the State, the membership of the State in various international organisations, the organisational structure of the main ATM players - civil and military - and their responsibilities under the national legislation. In addition, it gives an overview of the Airspace Organisation and Classification, the ATC Units and the ATM systems operated by the main ANSP;

Chapter 2 provides a comprehensive picture of the situation of Air Traffic, Capacity and ATFM Delay per each ACC in the State. It shows the evolution of Air Traffic and Delay in the last five years and the forecast for the next five years. It also presents the planned projects assumed to offer the required capacity, taking into account the current aviation situation caused by the COVID19 crisis;

Chapter 3 provides the main Implementation Projects (at national, FAB and multinational level) which contribute directly to the implementation of the MP Operational Improvements and/or Enablers and Implementation Objectives. The Level 1 document covers a high-level list of the projects showing the applicable links. All other details like description, timescale, progress made and expected contribution to the ATM Key Performance Areas provided by the State per each project are available in the Level 2 document;

Chapter 4 deals with other cooperation activities beyond Implementation Projects. It provides an overview of the FAB cooperation, as well as all other multinational initiatives, which are out of the FAB scope. The content of this chapter generally is developed and agreed in close cooperation between the States concerned;

Chapter 5 contains aggregated information at State level covering the overall level of implementation, implementation per SESAR Essential Operational Change and implementation of ICAO ASBUs. In addition, it provides the high-level information on progress and plans of each Implementation Objective. The information for each Implementation Objective is presented in boxes giving a summary of the progress and plans of implementation for each Stakeholder. The conventions used are presented at the beginning of the section.

The Level 1 document is completed with a separate document called LSSIP Level 2. This document consists of a set of tables organised in line with the list of Implementation Objectives. Each table contains all the actions planned by the four national stakeholders (REG, ASP, MIL and APO) to achieve their respective Stakeholder Lines of Action (SLoAs) as established in the European ATM Master Plan L3 Implementation Plan Edition 2020. In addition, it covers a detailed description of the Implementation Projects for the State as extracted from the LSSIP DataBase.

The information contained in Chapter 5 – Implementation Objectives Progress is deemed sufficient to satisfy State reporting requirements towards ICAO in relation to ASBU (Aviation System Block Upgrades) monitoring.

Within the framework of a BOOT (BOOT: Build Own Operate Transfer) concession, It has set itself the goal of steadily optimizing operations at the new airport and making it into one of Albania's most up-to-date infrastructure facilities. Situated about 17 kilometres from the country’s capital, Tirana, Tirana International Airport “Nënë Tereza” is Albania’s most important air transport hub. It connects this south-eastern European country with Europe’s major business centers and, among its many contributions, is supporting the development of tourism along Albania’s nearly 450-kilometer-long Mediterranean coastline Twelve years later, demonstrating significant growth, the Airport provides services to more than 2.6 million passengers annually and is now a modern gateway to the country, changing the image of Albania. On 1 April 2016, the Government of Albania and TIA signed an amendment to the Concession Agreement of TIA and took a major step towards the development of air transport and the liberalization of international flights in Albania. The Concession Period of TIA was immediately extended by two years, i.e. until April 2027, in exchange for the opening of Kukës Airport to international flights. In 2020, the airport handled 1,310,614passengers, 15,150Aircraft movements (departure and landing) and 1,797 tons Cargo.

Airport(s) covered by the LSSIP Referring to the List of Airports in the European ATM Master Plan Level 3 Implementation Plan Edition 2020 – Annex 2, it is up to the individual State to decide which additional airports will be reported through LSSIP for those Objectives. The airport covered by this LSSIP document is Mother Teresa Airport (LATI), which is neither part of the 28 airports identified as potentially having an effect upon the network in terms of ATFCM delays nor part of the list of 57 Airports for which Airports and Environment Objectives are to be specifically monitored.

FAB Co-ordination

The BLUE MED FAB is the European central/south-eastern FAB (Functional Airspace Block) initiative, whose partners are the States of Cyprus, Greece, , Malta and North Macedonia. Today, the BLUE MED FAB is in its Implementation Phase, a coordinated deployment initiative in which operational and technical improvements are being delivered through a solid Implementation Programme, which is at the same time a summary and a plan of all the activities deployed or to be undertaken by the BLUE MED working groups and task forces. This is bringing benefit to the Airspace Users in terms of enhanced efficiency, reduced delays and costs and lower environmental impact. Albania is an associate partner of the BLUE MED FAB Initiative and follows closely its developments.

Multinational cooperation initiatives

JSPA Initiative The Directors General of Civil Aviation Authorities as well as the Chief Executive Officers of the respective Air Navigation Service (ANS) providers of Albania, Kosovo*, The Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, Montenegro and Hungary, on 29 April 2013 signed a Letter of Intent on the Joint Service Provision Area Initiative (JSPA) in South East Europe, under the auspices of the Regional Cooperation Council (RCC). Representatives of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia took part in the Conference, strongly supporting the initiative, and expressing intention to join the signatory parties at a later stage, following internal procedure. The aim of JSPA initiative is to provide benefits for its participants and their stakeholders through agreed projects whilst creating proactive relationships between regional CAAs and ANSPs. JSPA Initiative activities shall be based on real needs and possibilities, equality and utilization of existing resources, developed towards benefiting from common ideas and interests. JSPA aim is to further promote SES concept in the region. However, after 2017 its activities were limited.

Agreement for Co-operation between ACAA and EUROCONTROL The Albanian CAA and EUROCONTROL have signed a special agreement providing support to the development and improvement of the Albanian National Supervisory Authority resources and processes. This special agreement is in line with the objectives of the EU Single European Sky legislation.

Agreement for Co-operation between Albcontrol and ENAV Albcontrol, Albania ANSP and ENAV are collaborating for the electronic obstacle terrain data and the re-evaluation of the aeronautical charts. In this scope is also the revision of flight procedures and aeronautical charts included. Albcontrol has in place Letter of Agreement (LOA) with ENAV.

LSSIP Year 2020 Albania 30 Released Issue Agreement for Harmonisation and synchronisation of FRALB with SECSIFRA

The South East Common Sky Initiative Free Route Airspace (SECSI FRA) is a specified airspace within which airspace users may freely plan a route between a defined entry point and a defined exit point, with the possibility to route via intermediate (published or unpublished) waypoints, without reference to the ATS route network, subject to airspace availability. Within this airspace, flights remain subject to air traffic services. The main objective of SECSI FRA implementation is to offer opportunities for the users to improve efficiency of plannable direct routes/trajectories within enlarged cross-border free route airspace, as well as increased efficiency between SECSI FRA and neighbouring airspaces. The overall scope of the South East Common Sky Initiative Concept of Operations is to provide an enabling framework for a harmonized implementation of Cross Border FRA within the AoRs of Austro Control, BHANSA, Croatia Control, Slovenia Control and SMATSA based on the agreed SECSI Roadmap. Albania is in the process of joining the SECSI-FRA on the AIRAC date of 02 December 2021. Approval for joining has been granted from all member states and we are in the process of preparing the Operational, Safety and Publication documents. Joining the SECSI-FRA will increase the efficiency as the main flow of traffic in Albania comes from the SECSI-FRA.
