This has been another positive year for the programme, with participation continuing to build year-on-year. At the beginning of this reporting year there were 156 airports in the programme. Since then, a further 36 airports have joined and 3 have withdrawn, bringing the total number of airports at the end of this reporting year to 189. The following developments should be highlighted: 1. Sustained programme growth in all world regions – including at Level 3+ In programme Year 8, for the first time airports outside Europe achieved the highest accreditation status: 1 airport in North America, 5 in Asia-Pacific and 1 in Africa have been recognised as carbon neutral. Carbon neutrality in Airport Carbon Accreditation means that all the emissions under direct control of these airports have been offset, on top of the reductions that have been made. This milestone shows that carbon neutrality is an objective shared by airports worldwide, and that Airport Carbon Accreditation effectively supports airports in working towards it, and reaching it. In total, 34 airports worldwide have achieved carbon neutrality in Year 8.

  • Methodology EN – Dataset – MCA – Omio
    Methodology Stress-free Travel: The Most Convenient European Capital Airports The ranking of airports in Europe that offer a stress-free and convenient travel experience was determined by examining all European capital cities. If a capital city had more than one airport, the main international airport, defined as the one with the largest number of international flights, was selected. To create the ranking of the most convenient airports in Europe, all airports were analysed according to 17 factors that were grouped into four data-clusters: connectivity​, f​ acilities​, e​ ntertainment ​and s​ tress​. These were then weighted according to the level of influence airport operators can exert on each data cluster. Since “facilities” and “entertainment” can be determined by airport operators, they were deemed important data clusters when determining the level of convenience, weighing 40 percent each of the final score. However, airport operators have less influence on “stress” and “connectivity,” so both data clusters contribute to only 10 percent of the final score, since the punctuality of airlines, the geographical location and the availability of public transit options to reach the airport, for instance, cannot be controlled by the managing body of the airport. Research factors and sources Data cluster one: Connectivity (10%) ● Distance: ​The linear distance in kilometres between the capital’s main train ​ station and the airport was determined using G​ oogle Maps​. ● Public transport: ​The number of public transit options connecting the main ​ airport to the city centre was sourced from the official information provided by airport operators. Shuttle services were not included unless there were no other public transit options available.
