Flight punctuality during Europe’s peak summer season improved significantly this year, according to the Civil Air Navigation Services Organization (CANSO).

European airspace design was inherited from the progressive construction of air traffic management on a multinational continent, leading to fragmentation.

CANSO has introduced the Complete Air Traffic System (CATS) concept of operations, a 2045 blueprint for air traffic management.

Technology progress such as greater flight deck automation may improve safety and, in turn, densify airspace, American Airlines EVP and COO David Seymour said.

A coalition concept for future airspace calls for integrating automation into safety-critical ATM to meet the demands of an increasingly complex environment.

Industry says new legislation aimed at turning decarbonization into a growth driver does not go far enough in supporting green transition.

Reaching net zero by 2050 will cost Europe significantly more than previously estimated, according to an updated Destination 2050 roadmap presented by industry.

European airlines, trade unions and air traffic control bodies fear that shortages of ATC capacity over the continent will continue for the foreseeable future.

Using satellites for radio communications over oceans promises air traffic management efficiencies.

Aviation players have cheered the news that sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) will be included in the Net Zero Industry Act (NZIA).

ANSPs from China, Indonesia, Japan, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and the U.S. signed the APAC TBO Pathfinder Project agreement.

The study urges European countries considering banning short-haul flights to take a wide range of factors into consideration.
