4 ACI World Report – January 2015
In the midst of the season’s hustle and bustle, ACI is working harder than ever to ensure that we begin the New Year on a high note. We re-launch the Airport Service Quality (ASQ) programme, delivering features that will be even more useful for airports that desire to analyze and benchmark their customer service performance. We have retooled ASQ from the ground up, taking into account the views of our subscribers. More than ever, this is your programme to help you raise the bar on customer service.
We’re helping airports raise the bar in many other ways, too. Our Global Training department has released its 2015 Course Calendar and our Airport Excellence (APEX) in Safety team expects continued growth for the programme in 2015. The programme is developing further partnerships: the European Aviation Safety Agency, the Pacific Aviation Safety Office
and the World Bank, all of which have seen the value that the programme offers to airports wanting to improve their safety performance.
ACI’s strong collaboration with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) will likewise continue in the New Year with an early important event. The ICAO High Level Safety Conference will take place from 2–6 February. Attended by Ministers and Directors General of Civil Aviation from most of the ICAO States, the conference will cover a wide range of safety issues including developments on global tracking of aircraft and risks to aviation over conflict zones. The Conclusions and Recommendations from the conference will be submitted to the ICAO Council for their further consideration. ACI is collaborating with our partner organizations to secure the best outcomes for airports and for the industry as a whole.
Message from Angela GittensDirector General, ACI World
Dear Colleagues,
5ACI World Report – January 2015
The opening quarter of 2015 will also be busy with events within ACI. ACI-North America (ACI-NA) hosts its Risk Management Conference from 14–16 January in San Diego before heading to Reno for the ACI-NA Customer Service Seminar from 27–29 January. From 25–27 February ACI World, in partnership with ACI Europe and ACI Asia-Pacific, hosts the 7th Annual Airport Economics & Finance Conference and Exhibition in London, widely hailed as the premier event of its kind. Finally for the first quarter, ACI-NA will host its Washington Legislative Conference from 3–4 March before heading to Vancouver from 22–25 March for the ACI-NA Business Information Technology, Environmental Affairs and Public Safety & Security Conferences.
The end of one year and the beginning of a new one is a
time to both look back and look ahead. We just did this with ICAO as we convened in Chicago on 7–8 December to mark the 70th anniversary of the signing of the Chicago Convention which led to ICAO’s creation. In this issue, we look back at the events and achievements of 2014. It was a busy and productive year and 2015 will be even more so as we accelerate the demanding but rewarding work of producing a safe, secure, and sustainable airport system that benefits our communities, our customers and our business partners.
Happy New Year!
Angela Gittens Director General ACI World

2014 in MemoriamThe international aviation community lost three dear colleagues this year, each of whom contributed greatly in their own unique way to fostering the growth of the industry. Please join ACI in honouring and remembering those friends that we lost in 2014.
Anne McGinley passed away on 21 January 2014 after a courageous battle with cancer. Anne started her career in the air transport industry in 1997 as the Head of the Air Navigation Services Division in the Department of Public Enterprise in Ireland. In 2001, Anne became the Representative of Ireland on the ICAO Council. She was subsequently appointed Chairperson of the ICAO Air Transport Committee and in 2004 was named to the ABIS delegation in ICAO.
In 2005, ACI appointed Anne as Director of the ICAO Bureau in Montreal where her knowledge, diplomatic skills and tireless efforts assisted in building international consensus on issues important to airport needs. She was instrumental in obtaining Observer status at ICAO’s Air Navigation Commission and put ACI on the Montreal landscape.
Anne will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Prominent and respected civil aviation figure and Council President Emeritus of ICAO Dr. Assad Kotaite passed away on 27 February 2014 at the age of 89. The wisdom of Dr. Kotaite had a great deal to do with the creation of Airports Council International. He advised the leaders of the predecessor global airport associations that “airports would never have a voice on the global stage until they could speak with one voice.”
Dr. Kotaite, widely regarded as a visionary in the industry, devoted his life to furthering international civil aviation with an eye toward the importance that the industry could play in economic, social and cultural development.
All of us in the industry owe a great deal of gratitude to Dr. Assad Kotaite. The legacy he left will live on for many years to come.

Philippe Baril, President of ACI-Latin America-Caribbean, passed away on 29 September 2014. Philippe had a long association with ACI, serving as Manager of Training at ACI World and Managing Director of the ACI Fund before leaving for Corporaciòn Quiport, S.A. where he managed Quito Airport in Ecuador and oversaw the development of the new Quito Airport, Mariscal Sucre International, one of the busiest airports in South America. Most recently, he served as Chairman of Corporación Quiport, S.A.
Philippe was an especial champion of capacity building in developing countries, particularly in the areas of safety and security, recognizing that bringing training to the staff of these airports was fundamental to their future. In spite of his illness in the months before his passing, Philippe remained active in promoting the interests of airports in the LAC region and around the world.
Philippe will be dearly missed.

ACI North America Chairman Reis testifies before House Aviation Subcommittee on airport financing
ACI North America (ACI-NA) Board Chairman Mark Reis, Managing Director of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, made the case for modernizing U.S. airport financing during a hearing on 18 June before the Aviation Subcommittee of the U.S. House of Representatives Transportation and Infrastructure Committee—and responded to claims from airline representatives that raising the Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) cap would only be an unnecessary hit to airfare sales.
Reis said PFCs are essential to the necessary safety and structure improvements that the average 40-year-old airport facilities in the U.S. need to make the traveler experience safer and less congested—and right now, the cap established 14 years ago isn’t cutting it.

ACI/ICAO/IATA Young Aviation Professionals programme to be extended for a second year
Over the past year Airports Council International, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) have hosted two Young Aviation Professional Officers, giving them an opportunity to advance their knowledge and understanding of the global civil aviation system within a United Nations international regulatory body, as well as the airline and airport industries, and to learn about the inter-relationships between these actors.
The organizations decided in September to extend the programme for a second year. Through this collaborative programme, three Young Aviation Professionals will be offered exciting career development opportunities in Montreal. More details on the selection criteria, conditions of employment, examples of typical duties and instructions on how to apply can be found at https://careers.icao.int.

Canadian Airports Council steps up advocacy efforts on Ontario Aviation Fuel Tax
Canada’s largest province, Ontario, is home to 11 Canadian Airports Council (CAC) member airports including major aviation operations centres at Toronto Pearson, Toronto Billy Bishop and Ottawa International Airports. Like many jurisdictions, Ontario has a tax on aviation fuel but it is an anomaly in having such a tax on international flights.
The CAC stepped up advocacy efforts on the fuel tax file prior to the initial spring budget in support of air carrier efforts led by the National Airlines Council of Canada for some time. The impetus was an indication from the Minister of Economic Development, Employment and Infrastructure that there may be an opening to eliminate the portion of the fuel tax levied on international flights in line with practice in other jurisdictions.
The CAC was one of two organizations to testify on the fuel tax and one of ten organizations overall to be heard by the Ontario Standing Committee on Finance and Economic Affairs as part of the legislative consideration of the budget implementation bill.
The CAC will continue to support advocacy efforts led by the carrier community on this file. The link between cost-related concerns at the federal level is front of mind, however, and part of the narrative the CAC is employing at the provincial level is a call for the province to join with industry in working together in pursuit of federal reforms. Such a move, however, would essentially represent an about-face on the part of the provincial government.

ACI, IATA and CANSO join ICAO to discuss risks to civil aviation arising from conflict zones
Airports Council International, along with the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the Civil Air Navigation Services Organisation (CANSO), participated in a meeting at the head offices of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in Montreal, Canada to discuss appropriate actions to be pursued to mitigate potential risks to civil aviation arising from conflict zones in the wake of the MH17 incident.
“Despite the tragic events surrounding the downing of flight MH17, it is important to remember that aviation has an excellent safety record; the condemnable actions of those responsible do not change that,” said Angela Gittens, Director General of ACI World. “Nonetheless, there is always room for improvement, specifically when it comes to ensuring that robust intelligence is put in the right hands.
“ACI and other industry stakeholders will tackle this issue just as we have others in the past—collaboratively and transparently—as we continue to ensure the safety of the traveling public,” Gittens added. “Any proposed changes to flight paths necessarily affect airports where slot allocation, fuel uplifts and curfews are
concerned. ACI is ready to cooperatively explore effective solutions with ICAO, IATA and CANSO, and today’s meeting was a very positive first step in the right direction.”

ACI Director General Angela Gittens conferredwith her counterparts at the World HealthOrganization (WHO), the International CivilAviation Organization (ICAO), the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in a conference call on 13 August 2014. The purpose of the call was to coordinate action among the key stakeholders in the air transport industry with the aim of maintaining air services and confidence in air travel to and from the countries affected by the Ebola outbreak, namely Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone. It also aimed to counter the misinformation that causes fear and generalizations about the risk, which is negatively impacting tourism and trade in other parts of Africa.
ACI-NA and CBP launch mobile passport app
On 13 August 2014, Airports Council International-North America (ACI-NA) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) announced the launch of the first authorized app to expedite a traveler’s entry process into the United States. Mobile Passport Control (MPC) will allow eligible travelers to submit their passport information and customs declaration form via a smartphone or tablet prior to CBP inspection. This first-of its-kind app was developed by Airside Mobile and ACI-NA in partnership with CBP as part of a pilot program at the Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. IPhone and iPad users can download the app for free from Apple’s App Store. MPC is expected to expand to more airports later this year and to Android smartphone users in the future.
“Mobile Passport exemplifies the forward-thinking commitment CBP and airports have to improving the passenger experience when entering the United States,” said ACI-NA President and CEO Kevin M. Burke. “This partnership between CBP and ACI-NA also represents an outstanding example of industry and government working together to find smart, cost-effective solutions. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with CBP as Mobile Passport begins its roll-out at U.S. airports later this year.”
Building a bright future for India’s aviation sector
An ACI team that included ACI World Director General Angela Gittens, ACI Asia-Pacific Regional Director Patti Chau and ACI World Director of Economics Rafael Echevarne visited India earlier this year to meet with key senior aviation officials. The objective of the visit included discussing the status of the Indian airport industry and the latest economic regulatory initiatives suggested by the Indian regulator. India is full of potential, with a large population in a large country with a growing middle class. However, it still has a long way to go in view of the fact that other countries with similar or lower population bases handle relatively larger volumes of passenger traffic. India is not currently in the top ten countries in terms of airport passenger volume. India should be one of the three largest aviation markets. ACI wants to see that India takes its rightful place in the aviation world.

The ACI APEX programme built upon the success of 2013 and carried this momentum throughout 2014. The APEX team delivered a 70% increase in reviews conducted versus last year and also saw a series of firsts for the programme in general.
• First review of an American airport (SEA)• First review of a major European airport
