Collectively, we have reached the point in our internal mechanisms at the world May finally ushered in spring in Montreal and and regional levels where we can truly function featured the important ICAO Air Transport as a community of airports, helping each other Symposium, at which ACI was a Gold Sponsor in more ways than ever and setting standards and ensured that airport interests were for ourselves. Moreover, we have reached advanced. ACI World Chair Rick Piccolo, Mario the point in our external standing where we Diaz, Director of Houston Airport System, and I were now seen as valued and sought-after spoke at the event to an audience of influential contributors to policy-setting mechanisms at regulators and academics about liberalization the global level. and the changing landscape of the airport business. We should be proud of this achievement, but much work remains. I’m looking forward to Liberalization is not without its challenges, and outlining the considerable advancements that ACI’s role at the ICAO Air Transport Symposium ACI has made on behalf of airports over the was largely about ensuring that attendees past year when we meet in Seoul for WAGA understand and consider the issue from an 2014, which I’m pleased to say will be our airport perspective.

Every airport—no matter its size—supports travel and tourism, and ACI-NA is proud of its members’ role in boosting this significant sector to the U.S. and Canadian economies. That’s why ACI-NA will continue to advocate for smart policies in both countries that will keep us competitive in the global travel market.” Kevin M. Burke, President and CEO, ACI North America (on the important role that airports play in interconnecting people across North America) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Access to air transport has become fundamental for social and economic development, as this year´s [Aviation: Benefits Beyond Borders] report indicates. From the airport operator’s perspective, as passenger traffic increases it is fundamental that the right economic regulatory framework is in place to offer incentives aimed at the sustainable development of airport infrastructure and capacity. Aviation is a catalyst for economic growth and all stakeholders must work collaboratively to empower every community that we serve to take full advantage of the significant benefits that aviation provides.” Javier Martinez, Director General, ACI Latin America-Caribbean (as quoted in a press release announcing the ATAG report Aviation: Benefits Beyond Borders) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Sustainability is the watchword for this era in aviation. If we take the necessary steps to improve connectivity and enhance our offering to passengers, aviation will become an ever more formidable engine for sustainable economic growth in Africa.” Ali Tounsi, Secretary General, ACI Africa (speaking at the UNWTO Regional Seminar on Tourism and Air Connectivity in Africa, Luanda, Angola, 29 April 2014) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “The Human Resource Excellence Recognition programme is a brand new initiative launched this year in ACI Asia-Pacific, with the objective of promoting professional excellence in airport HR management. A total of thirteen submissions were received where airports shared their outstanding achievements in HR management. Queensland Airports Limited (QAL) took top honours (Gold Recognition) and demonstrated its strong commitment in staff development through its People Management programme. My heartfelt congratulations go out to QAL and the participating airports for their hard work!” Patti Chau, Regional Director, ACI Asia-Pacific (on ACI Asia-Pacific’s new Human Resource Excellence Recognition programme) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “These are solid air traffic figures for Europe, which reflect improving economic conditions—especially in the EU, where consumer confidence has reached pre-crisis levels and GDP growth is set to gain further momentum. Significantly, the rebound in both domestic passenger traffic (+5.8%) and freight traffic, as well as the return of dynamic passenger growth in Greece, are all welcome signals that the European aviation market is finally becoming more balanced.” Olivier Jankovec, Director General, ACI Europe (commenting on the release of Q1 airport traffic results) 6 ACI World Report – June 2014 ACI Economics Moderate growth in passenger traffic as air freight continues revival in March Global passenger traffic grew modestly by 2.4% for the month of March, which is slightly below the 12-month average of over 4%. International passenger traffic contributed to the slowing growth since the increase in passengers was more subdued at 1.8% for the month. The only region to post strong gains was the Middle East, where growth reached 6.2% year over year. The region as a whole leads all other regions in the first quarter of 2014 in terms of growth, reaching an 8.6% increase in passenger traffic for the first three months. Dubai (DXB) is ranked as the third-busiest airport for the first quarter of 2014 with growth of 11.4% year over year. Domestic passenger markets performed a bit better than the international market, achieving growth of 2.9% overall on the month. Although the world’s largest domestic market, North America, grew only slightly for March (1.6%), European domestic passenger traffic showed a Global passenger traffic grew modestly by 2.4% for the month of March, which is slightly below the 12-month average of over 4% strong recovery with growth of 6.2%. Latin America-Caribbean also experienced robust growth of 7.1% in domestic passenger traffic brought on primarily by the Carnival season in the Brazilian market. After three sluggish years in freight traffic growth, global air freight markets resurged in the first quarter of 2014 After three sluggish years in freight traffic growth, global air freight markets resurged in the first quarter of 2014. Growth in air freight volumes rose by 3.2% in the first quarter and by 3.9% for the month of March. The resurgence is largely attributable to strong growth at many AsiaPacific airports in the first three months of 2014. Hong Kong (HKG), Shanghai (PVG) and Incheon (ICN) achieved robust growth of 5.6%, 6.9% and 6.1% respectively. European airports also contributed to the first quarter recovery, growing by 5% as compared to the first quarter in 2013. “The recent revival in the air freight market is a direct by-product of the improvements in world trade and the recovery in advanced economies,” said ACI World’s Economics Director Rafael Echevarne. “Despite CONTINUED ON THE NEXT PAGE ACI World Report – June 2014 7 CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS PAGE “The recent revival in the air freight market is a direct by-product of the improvements in world trade and the recovery in advanced economies” ~ Rafael Echevarne, Director, Economics & Programme Development, ACI World the fact that many Asian airports have performed well with respect to air freight in the first quarter, the downside risks and relative weakness in the Chinese economy continues to persist. March is also a distorted month because of the spillover effects from the Chinese New Year earlier in the year. Thus, the outlook for air freight in the short term should be viewed with cautious optimism.” continues to be upbeat with respect to the opportunities and growth in key emerging markets,” Echevarne added. “Many airports in Brazil, Russia, India and China, as well as South-East Asia, continue to post strong growth rates in the first quarter and over a twelve-month period.” For more information on ACI statistics www.aci.aero/airport-statistics “Notwithstanding the recent short run slowdown in passenger traffic, ACI SUMMARY WORLDWIDE TRAFFIC RESULTS, MARCH 2014 (% CHANGE) March 2014 over March 2013 Year to Date 2014 12-Month Rolling Year PaxFlash International Passenger 1.8 4.7 5.1 Domestic Passenger 2.9 3.8 3.2 Total Passenger 2.4 4.2 4.1 FreightFlash International Freight 5.3 4.4 2.1 Domestic Freight 0.5 0.5 0.8 Total Freight 3.9 3.2 1.7 For regional results and trend graphics of passenger and freight traffic from February 2014, please click here. 8 ACI World Report – June 2014 ACI_WATR_2014_AeroportLeMag_Excel_Offer_5-16-2014.pdf 22 5/16/14 3:28 PM AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE NOW ACI ANNUAL WORLD AIRPORT TRAFFIC REPORT A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF TRENDS AND DATA IN AIRPORT TRAFFIC Over 1,800 airports More than 150 countries C M Y CM MY CY CMY K DO NOT MISS THE OPPORTUNITY TO BENEFIT FROM THIS LIMITED TIME OFFER!

The organizers of the event invited the aviation industry to come together and take stock of the main developments in the field of aviation and sustainability. The participation of President of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Council Dr. Bernard Aliu (by video) and Jane Hupe, as well as key participants in ICAO’s work on a global market-based measure (MBMs) from the US and India, indicated that ATAG has been recognized for its achievements. The united industry position on aviation and climate change was emphasised by the 2008 Summit Declaration on the industry commitment to action on climate change. This included a four pillar strategy incorporating enhanced technology, operations, infrastructure and MBMs, as well as targets for efficiency, carbon-neutral growth and carbon reduction. The single position of the aviation industry stakeholders had a clear Paul Steele, outgoing ATAG Executive Director, at the 2014 Global Sustainable Aviation Summit benefit in helping ICAO achieve its 2010 and 2013 Assembly Resolutions and action plans. The Summit included a session on the progress and prospects of ICAO’s work on a global MBM for aviation. The Summit’s title also showed a clear shift away from a discussion of aviation and environmental impacts to a broader based debate on sustainability of the industry as a whole. The 2012 Summit declaration on sustainable aviation and the release at the Summit of the updated ATAG publication “Aviation: Benefits Beyond Borders” demonstrated the importance of widening the discussion to include the economic and social benefits of aviation. While not addressed in a specific session, the underlying theme of ATAG and its Summit was the importance of earning permission to grow. In many ways “permission” is a better word than the more widely used “licence” because the latter implies some sort of official sanction. Permission relates to a broader mandate Michael Gill, ATAG’s incoming Executive Director, at the 2014 Global Sustainable Aviation Summit CONTINUED ON THE NEXT PAGE ACI World Report – June 2014 11 CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS PAGE reflecting wider airport community interests. The 2014 Summit said farewell to Paul Steele, who had led ATAG for the past six years in the capacity of Executive Director and had steered the industry group through all the achievements mentioned and more. Michael Gill, the incoming Executive Director, would meet interesting challenges to maintain the united aviation industry position, ATAG credibility as its voice and be ready to address potential emerging issues such as impacts on health. About ATAG ACI was a founding member of the Air Transport Action Group (ATAG), a highly respected not-for-profit association established to represents all sectors of the air transport industry. It brought together all aviation industry players so that they could collectively promote aviation’s sustainable growth. ATAG focuses on areas of common interest such as the industry response to climate change and the need for recognition of the economic benefits a well-developed, lightly regulated, industry can bring. ATAG is funded by its members which, in addition to ACI, include Airbus, ATR, Boeing, Bombardier, the Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation, CFM International, Embraer, GE, Honeywell Aerospace, the International Air Transport Association, Pratt & Whitney, Rolls-Royce and Safran. ATAG’s mission is to define common positions on issues and to make expert and constructive contributions to the industry and governmental consultation process. To this end, ATAG: • advocates for coordinated action on strategic issues (such as environmental protection and infrastructure) that require cross-industry involvement and contributes to public policy debates; • mobilizes the industry towards joint statements and promotion of a joint vision; • carries out appropriate studies to develop consistent data and information; • proactively communicates aviation’s positive role and impact with respect to economic and social development; and • operates with flexibility and an openmind, thus creating the conditions for a transparent dialogue. In so doing, ATAG plays an influential role in ensuring that aviation can continue to grow according to market demands and deliver the enormous economic and social benefits it brings to the world.

It was attended by nearly 50 representatives of airports, airlines, aircraft and aero-engine manufacturers and regulators, as well as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Some 20 airport operators are members, of which 10 were present, as well as myself for ACI World and Dick Marchi for ACI North America. The IIWG was established in September 1970 under the sponsorship of ACI World’s predecessor, the Airport Associations Coordinating Council; the International Coordinating Council of Aerospace Industries Associations (ICCAIA); and the International Air Transport Association (IATA). IATA provides secretarial support, and ACI and ICCAIA alternate as Chair and Vice-Chair, with the current Chair being Mr. Koos Noordeloos of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. IIWG objectives include the following: • to promote and develop the open exchange of information between the three parties with a view to minimizing interface problems through well-informed design, development and operation of both aircraft and airports; • to study jointly possible solutions to major airport/aircraft compatibility problems which appear to impede or are likely to impede the development of the air transport system; • to share information with a view to establishing a unified industry position on matters of common interest to two or more of the three parties; and • to assist in developing and keeping up-to-date standard formats and content specifications for documents specifying aircraft characteristics, airport characteristics and future trends in aircraft and airport design. There were some 35 presentations; it is a feature of the IIWG that all parties are expected to participate actively and share their experience. The key agenda item included updates on new aircraft characteristics. Boeing presented the second and third versions of the Boeing 787 (the -9, due to enter service in late 2014, and the -10 expected in 2018); the 777X with folding wingtips (the first -9X version is expected to enter into service in 2020); and the 737 MAX (with projected entry into service dates of March 2017 for the MAX 8, April 2018 for the MAX 9 and February 2019 for the MAX 7). Airbus presented the A350 XWB (-800, -900 and -1000 versions, with the -900 to enter service in late 2014 and the -1000 in 2017) and the Airbus A320 NEO (with entry into service in the third quarter of 2015). Airbus also described the expected expansion of A380 service from today’s 42 airports to some 89 airports by 2032, still concentrated on “megacities.” Mitsubishi presented its Regional Jet (MRJ) with entry into service in 2017, with the first flight planned in 2015. There will be three variants, with the initial version having 92 seats. Orders and options total over 300. For these new aircraft, an “Aircraft Characteristics for Airport Planning” document in the IIWG-prescribed format (for convenient use by airport planners) will either be shortly available, or in some cases is already available. CONTINUED ON THE NEXT PAGE 14 ACI World Report – June 2014 CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS PAGE The cover of a presentation given at the 62nd IIWG meeting on accommodating the A380 at Washington Dulles International Airport In discussion, it was noted that the 777-9X will be code F with wingtips unfolded (72-metre wingspan) and code E with the wingtips folded (65-metre wingspan on taxiways and stands). There was considerable discussion of the challenges that airports and operators will face, as well the need for acceptance by regulators that tip extension can occur prior to lining up on the runway on departure and while turning off the runway on landing in order to minimize the impact on normal airport traffic flow, such as on parallel taxiways. More than 30 likely destination airports have already been consulted by Boeing. Although Boeing and Airbus confirmed that the 737 Max and A320 NEO, even with winglets or “sharklets,” would both stay within the code C wingspan limit of 36 metres, airport operators expressed concern that eventually, narrowbody aircraft may be developed that exceed this wingspan because this is beneficial for flight efficiency, and longer ranges amplify the benefit. However, wingspan increases create issues for airport design, including adaptation of taxiways and parking stands. Both manufacturers confirmed that they have no current plans for their narrow-body aircraft to exceed a 36-metre wingspan. Other presentations covered issues of airport compatibility with larger aircraft. ICAO’s presentation included the Aerodromes Panel’s proposal to reduce Annex 14 taxiway separations for all ICAO aerodrome reference codes, which even before it is formally approved and published (likely in 2016) could help airport operators. These reductions range up to 6.5 metres for Code F aircraft. A presentation on developing additional taxiroutes for the A380 at Heathrow exemplified how a constrained airport with expected larger numbers of A380 movements may have a strong business case to adapt its infrastructure to avoid bottlenecks in the taxiway system and operate the aircraft efficiently, while working within space constraints, avoiding demolition, loss of aircraft stands and displacement of taxiways as far as possible. A notable presentation was made on trends in wingspan and fuselage length as assumptions for airport master planning. Master plans for several airports were shown, including London Heathrow, Kansai, Tokyo Narita and Miami. Issues of ground handling, ground power, deicing, jet blast, and more were also covered, as well as airspace issues such as the introduction of time-based separation at Heathrow, and planned airspace restructuring in Europe under SESAR. A presentation was also made on Airport Collaborative Decision Making. Environmental protection was another major theme, especially noise. Presentations were given on best practice departure procedures, an airport’s “fly-quiet” programme and the status of operational towing concepts such as “Taxibot” and “e-taxi.” Pratt & Whitney gave a presentation on the Pure Power series of geared turbofan engines being fitted to the A320 NEO, Bombardier C-series, MRJ, the re-engined Embraer E-190 E2 and others, which will have a noise and fuel consumption advantage over current technology. The presentations and further information are available on request to [email protected].

The first took place at Prince Mohammed Bin Abdul Aziz International Airport in Medina, Saudi Arabia on 4–8 May 2014. This was followed by a safety review of Aéroport International Félix-Houphouët-Boigny in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, which was held from 12–16 May 2014. ACI would like to extend its appreciation to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO); ICAO Regional Offices WACAF and ESAF; Abu Dhabi International Airport; Sarasota Manatee Airport Authority; Aéroports de Montréal; Office de l’Aviation Civile et des Aéroports of Tunis; and ACI Regional Offices for their support and kind contribution to successful reviews of both of these airports. The teams assembled to review these airports performed admirably to the satisfaction of ACI and our hosts at Medina and Abidjan. The APEX teams were also impressed with the dedication of the staff and management at both airports and thoroughly enjoyed the time spent on site. “APEX in Safety continues its growth and performs its first ever review in Saudi Arabia,” says APEX in Safety Team Leader Juan Manuel Manriquez Vinas about the review of Prince Mohammed Bin Abdul Aziz International Airport. “The staff at the airport received our team into a city immersed in its culture, cuisine and beautiful infrastructure. I extend many thanks to ICAO and our Safety Partners, as well as the management of Prince Mohammed Bin Abdul Aziz International Airport, for making this another successful APEX Review.” Sofiene Abdessalem, Managing Director of TIBAH Airports Operation Co., adds: “TIBAH Airports Operation Co. is a joint venture of Al Rajhi Holding; Saudi Oger Ltd.; and TAV Airports Holding—the pioneer of innovation in the airport operations business. TIBAH Airports Operation Co. is credited for the execution of the first public-private partnership to develop and operate Medinah International Airport in Saudi Arabia. TIBAH’s overriding objective is to reach the highest level of safety, and in this regard we keenly engaged with ACI for the APEX programme to continue enhancing Medinah Airport’s level of safety. ACI World’s APEX in Safety Team with Medina Airport staff during a recent safety review which took place 4–8 May 2014 “During the peer review visit, we had opportunity to exchange experience with the APEX team in safety management and open a communication network with other airports,” Abdessalem continues. “We CONTINUED ON THE NEXT PAGE ACI World Report – June 2014 17 CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS PAGE “We appreciate the APEX team’s professionalism and constructive approach and are looking forward to further opportunities for cooperation with them.

We strongly recommend that other airport members join such a program.” “I approached the MED APEX review as a challenge and opportunity to give back from the 38 years of experience I’ve gained working at five different airports during my airport management career,” says APEX Assessor Robert John Mattingly of Sarasota Manatee Airport Authority. “Airports do indeed have that common bond of a desire to network and learn from each other. I look forward to another APEX to further the principles of safety and team friendship of airport professionals. I also appreciate the efforts of ACI World to provide the APEX programme leadership, resulting in a mutual worldwide airport safety benefit.” ACI would like to once again thank AERIA and TIBAH Airports Operation Co. for their kind reception and warm hospitality. We would also like to thank our Safety Partners for a job well done. The APEX Team will continue to make every effort to increase value for ACI members in the never-ending quest to improve airport safety worldwide.

The meeting was hosted by Mr. Gerhard Gruber on behalf of Vienna International Airport (Flughafen Wien AG) and was well attended by representatives of European aerodromes and organizations, as well as ACI World. The meeting’s agenda items focused on European operational and safety matters, policy issues and updates from the Single European Sky Steering Group, which met the day before. The Steering Group updates from Mr. Luc Laveyne included an overview of the SESAR deployment and the Pilot Common Project, which is currently under development. On the first day Mr. Gernot Kessler, Head of the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Aerodrome Rulemaking Section in Cologne, presented the revised EASA Rulemaking Programme for 2014–2017, including status and near future plans for rulemaking tasks and development and maintenance of the new Commission Regulation for aerodromes (EU) number 139/2014. This particular regulation has been discussed extensively during past meetings wherein aerodrome certification and regulation were covered, and therefore was not touched upon in any great detail at this particular meeting. On the other hand, the implementation, which is starting now in Europe, is a very interesting matter which will most certainly be under discussion for the next few years until the rules are fully implemented and the aerodromes are certified accordingly. The deadline for the implementation of the new rules is 31 December 2017. Mr. Kessler furthermore gave special updates on the Apron Management rules— presently in the process of comment response by EASA— and on the set up of a Rulemaking Group on Rescue and Firefighting Systems at Aerodromes. He also updated attendees on the development status of a regulation for aerodrome equipment. This subject has been under discussion and development for some time now, but due to the complexity of the matter a timeline for development is uncertain at this point. On day two, ACI World provided a presentation during the operational safety agenda item which introduced current projects and those planned for the coming months. ACI World also reported on the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Aerodrome Panel´s third meeting in Montreal last April 7–11; gave an overview of ACI/ICAO and organizational relations; and discussed the latest news related to Airport Collaborative Decision Making and Aviation Community Recommended Information Services. The update also covered the ACI Airport Excellence in Safety programme and safety handbook development at ACI World, including a content overview of the Runway Safety Handbook, released in February, and the soonto-be-released Emergency Preparedness and Contingency Handbook. Additional material that has been presented to ICAO on safety management, corporate safety culture and change management processes was provided within the meeting slides. In addition to the above, Mr. Olai Hjetland of AVINOR gave a presentation on safety risk assessment and the model used in Norway for safety assessments. Other items on the agenda included an update on the European Airports Punctuality Network by Anne Schmitter of Dusseldorf Airport; a discussion of the concept of the ground coordinator and a way forward; news on a recent icing incident at Vienna Airport and the need to consider the reporting of slippery CONTINUED ON THE NEXT PAGE 20 ACI World Report – June 2014 CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS PAGE conditions on the movement area; sharing of Geneva Airport’s experience after receiving a hijacked aircraft; and member reports of hot issues at their aerodromes. The meeting also covered air traffic management issues and the results of surveys on airport operations centres, runway surfaces and runway grooving. Finally, administrative issues were attended to, namely a change of chairmanship.

Mr. Andreas Eichinger remains Secretary of the committee. 2nd meeting of the ACI EUROPE Leadership and Human Resources Forum, 14 and 15 April 2014 in Reykjavik, Iceland By Danielle Michel, Director Membership Services, ACI EUROPE Over 20 passionate human resources specialists met in Iceland under the leadership of Theresa Fleidl (Munich Airport) and Heleen KuijtenKoenen (Amsterdam Schiphol Airport). After an inaugural meeting held on 23 October 2013 in Bologna, the Forum tackled a heavy agenda, including the definition of the group’s high-level objectives and mission. Four working groups subsequently presented their interim results on leadership change and internationalisation; employee engagement and recognition; succession planning and talent development; and mobility and demographic changes. The Forum is also responsible for the organisation of the annual Human Resources Study Tour, touring three member airports. Our thanks go to the Isavia team, led by Sigurdur Olafsson, who hosted the meeting. They made sure that all conditions were met to guarantee constructive work and effective exchange of know-how, not to mention introducing the participants to the natural beauty of Iceland! The 3rd meeting of the group will take place on 1 December 2014 in Munich, at the onset of the 4th Leadership and Change Management Summit to be hosted by Munich Airport. The Forum is looking forward to welcoming more dedicated members. For information, please contact Danielle Michel, ACI EUROPE Director Membership Services & Events, at danielle. [email protected].
