A New Environmental Deal for Airport Regions About the Airport Regions Conference The Airport Regions Conference (ARC) is an association of regional and local authorities across Europe with an international airport situated within or near its territory. The ARC brings together a wide range of expertise at the interface of air transport and local and regional policies. A common concern is to balance the economic benefits generated by the airports against their environmental impact, notably the effect on the quality of life of local residents. The members exchange best practices through ARC network and reflect together on policy challenges ahead. As such the ARC also serves as a platform to express members interests to the European Institutions. We were delighted to be hosted for our annual general meeting in Oslo Akershus, and we want to share with you the knowledge harvested on that occasion. Sergi Alegre Calero – ARC president – Vice Mayor El Prat de Llobregat About Akershus County Council Oslo Airport is to further enhance its reputation as one of the world’s greenest airports by opening a hydrogen station for vehicles.

    Sustainable Airport Solutions Green Marketing at GSA Airports Green Marketing at GSA Airports Leonie Tiben Graduation Thesis Green Marketing at GSA Airports Leonie Tiben Graduation Thesis Province of Drenthe Mentor Ben van Os NHL University of Applied Sciences European Studies Tutor and first reader P.G. Scholtz Second reader M.I Volkers Groningen, June 5, 2012. 1 Preface In the last year of my study European Studies I have conducted research into the marketing and communication of sustainability within the European Green Sustainable Airports Project (GSA). I was glad to be offered the opportunity to visit several international airports. From the very beginning it was clear that this project would be a challenge. Green marketing is a rather new discipline and it was not always easy to gather information. I had to develop investigation skills and to write a well-structured report. Particularly suggesting improvements with regard to sustainability was as challenging as it was rewarding. Apart from experiences in the world of marketing, communication and airports, these experiences also contributed to my personal development. I am happy to give recognition to all those who have assisted me. I am particularly grateful to Ben van Os, my mentor at the province of Drenthe and GSA’s project manager. He introduced me to this project. At all times his advice was most valuable. The province of Drenthe and Groningen Airport Eelde (GAE) provided me with an office. I would like to thank Geertje Scholten (GAE) and Monique Clarisse (GAE) for their helpful advices and ideas. Furthermore I would like to show my gratitude to P.G.

  • Air Transport
    The History of Air Transport KOSTAS IATROU Dedicated to my wife Evgenia and my sons George and Yianni Copyright © 2020: Kostas Iatrou First Edition: July 2020 Published by: Hermes – Air Transport Organisation Graphic Design – Layout: Sophia Darviris Material (either in whole or in part) from this publication may not be published, photocopied, rewritten, transferred through any electronical or other means, without prior permission by the publisher. Preface ommercial aviation recently celebrated its first centennial. Over the more than 100 years since the first Ctake off, aviation has witnessed challenges and changes that have made it a critical component of mod- ern societies. Most importantly, air transport brings humans closer together, promoting peace and harmo- ny through connectivity and social exchange. A key role for Hermes Air Transport Organisation is to contribute to the development, progress and promo- tion of air transport at the global level. This would not be possible without knowing the history and evolu- tion of the industry. Once a luxury service, affordable to only a few, aviation has evolved to become accessible to billions of peo- ple. But how did this evolution occur? This book provides an updated timeline of the key moments of air transport. It is based on the first aviation history book Hermes published in 2014 in partnership with ICAO, ACI, CANSO & IATA. I would like to express my appreciation to Professor Martin Dresner, Chair of the Hermes Report Committee, for his important role in editing the contents of the book. I would also like to thank Hermes members and partners who have helped to make Hermes a key organisa- tion in the air transport field.
