Day 211 March

IATA Day

Meet the Airlines - IATA, together with key representatives of a number of its major airline members, will be discussing the challenges we are facing together as we implement many of the IATA programmes that have been outlined at previous PTE conferences. The airline speakers, together with representatives from the airports where they are working on these initiatives, will talk about how they perceive the implementation process, both the opportunities and the challenges.

- The new LoS concept and its practical application in terminal simulation

Synopsis: In April 2014 IATA published the new ADRM (Airport Development Reference Manual) including an updated level of service (LoS) concept. The LoS not only drives the dimensioning of new terminal facilities, it is also used by the airport industry in capacity studies to evaluate the service quality of existing terminal facilities. The presentation gives insight into this new LoS system and briefly outlines the differences to the old one. Practical examples from simulation projects illustrate visually how to apply the rather abstract definition to real cases. These practical examples show possible pitfalls in LoS spatial interpretation and define a suitable approach to correctly apply the concept.

Audience will learn:

Comprehension of the new LoS concept and its background/rationale
Understanding the differences between the old and the new LoS concept
Practical application of the newLoS concept in capacity assessments using simulation
How to apply the rather abstract definition to real cases
Learn from examples about possible pitfalls in the interpretation of LoS space standards and the consequences of wrong interpretation
