Airports Call for Globally Coordinated Slot Use Waivers
ACI World is asking airlines to implement “more realistic flight schedules” as it concedes the need for slot-use waivers.

Airports Council International (ACI) World on Tuesday called for a coordinated global alleviation of airport slot usage requirements until June 30, 2020. The call comes amid piecemeal efforts among different jurisdictions to ease the requirements, most notably in the U.S. and Europe. The airport industry group said it favors an “ongoing flexible reassessment of the situation based on data-driven evidence,” allowing airlines to adjust schedules in what ACI called a sustainable way and for airports to protect connecting traffic at hubs.
