Time slot
With the increase of air traffic, there is a continuously growing demand for capacity at congested airports. Slots, that is to say the permission to land and take-off at a specific date and time at congested airports, are essential for airlines' operations. Slots will be distributed in an equitable, non-discriminatory and transparent way by an independent coordinator. The aim of the EU framework is to ensure the fullest and most efficient use of existing capacity at congested EU airports while maximizing consumers' benefits and promoting the competition.
