Non-linear Response to Capacity Reduction
Reducing the airport capacity to 50%, generates over 65,000 minutes of delay at the airport and 139,000 minutes system wide.

• Improve predictability
• Ensure that the system is fair

The most profound impact on the ability of Airline Operational Control Centers to interface with Traffic Flow Management has been the advent
of the Aircraft Situational Display.

What is a Ground Delay Program?
A ground delay program (GDP) is implemented at an airport when arrival demand exceeds capacity

CDM Approach to the Problem• Recognize that this is best addressed as a distributed
optimization problem– FAA allocates arrival slots to airlines
• equitably and efficiently
– airlines assign flights to their allocated arrival slots
• optimize their own cost function
– iterative approach
• continual re-evaluation of demand vs. capacity and adjustments as necessary
• Allocation of slots must be equitable, and reward rather than punish data exchange
Assigns flights to slots and adjusts demand based on economic objectives

Pre-CDM GDP Process
• No opportunity for the airlines to solve the problem and avoid the GDP
• No ability for the FAA to respond to changing conditions with revisions or compressions
• No smooth transition out of the GDP

Some Perceived Problems
• Airlines are over-scheduling airports
• Airlines are withholding delay and cancellation information from the passengers.

Over-scheduling?
• PHX schedules at VFR conditions for certain time frames.– 344 days without a GDP
from June 2000 to present.
– GDP delays range from 60 to 238 minutes
– 6,192 more scheduled operations, than if scheduled to IFR conditions.

Over-scheduling?
• BOS schedules at VFR conditions for certain time frames.
– 250 days without a GDP from June 2000 to present.
– GDP delays range from 50 to 130 minutes
– 12,250 more scheduled operations, than if scheduled to IFR conditions.

Collaboration is Essential to Maximizing Resources
• When Capacity is Reduced, Airlines Adjust their Schedules by Delaying, Canceling and Substituting Flights.
• These Schedule Changes are Communicated to the FAA through the CDM Network.
• The FAA Uses this Information to Maximize Capacity Usage through Revisions, Compressions, and other Delay Reducing Procedures.
• To Achieve this Efficiency, Departure Times Must Remain Flexible.
• Delays that are Communicated to the Passengers are difficult to Reduce.

Future Steps for CDM
• Improve Demand-Capacity predictions– Demand Uncertainty
– Capacity Uncertainty• Improve dynamic resource allocation
– User system dependencies
– Passenger dependencies• Integrated System Solutions
– Local versus National Traffic Management Initiatives
– Strategic versus Tactical Traffic Management Initiatives

• Airlines can assign flights to slots in whatever way best suits their business needs

Revised demand
• Original program based on known demand
• When demand changes existing program becomes invalid
• Revision of the program reassigns arrival slots to updated demand
• Balance between demand and capacity is restored
• Delays are taken on the ground rather than in the air. This is cheaper for the airlines and safer for the flying public.

Pre-CDM GDP Process
• No opportunity for the airlines to solve the problem and avoid the GDP
• No ability for the FAA to respond to changing conditions with revisions or compressions
• No smooth transition out of the GDP

Some Perceived Problems
• Airlines are over-scheduling airports
• Airlines are withholding delay and cancellation information from the passengers.

Over-scheduling?
• PHX schedules at VFR conditions for certain time frames.– 344 days without a GDP
from June 2000 to present.
– GDP delays range from 60 to 238 minutes
– 6,192 more scheduled operations, than if scheduled to IFR conditions.

Over-scheduling?
• BOS schedules at VFR conditions for certain time frames.
– 250 days without a GDP from June 2000 to present.
– GDP delays range from 50 to 130 minutes
– 12,250 more scheduled operations, than if scheduled to IFR conditions.

TFM Dependencies
Although, the capacity at an airport is reduced and ATC delay has been applied, users may cancel and delay flights as well as notify the FAA of earliest feasible departure times of flights.

Collaboration is Essential to Maximizing Resources
• When Capacity is Reduced, Airlines Adjust their Schedules by Delaying, Canceling and Substituting Flights.
• These Schedule Changes are Communicated to the FAA through the CDM Network.
• The FAA Uses this Information to Maximize Capacity Usage through Revisions, Compressions, and other Delay Reducing Procedures.
• To Achieve this Efficiency, Departure Times Must Remain Flexible.
• Delays that are Communicated to the Passengers are difficult to Reduce.

Future Steps for CDM
• Improve Demand-Capacity predictions– Demand Uncertainty
– Capacity Uncertainty• Improve dynamic resource allocation
– User system dependencies
– Passenger dependencies• Integrated System Solutions
– Local versus National Traffic Management Initiatives
– Strategic versus Tactical Traffic Management Initiatives
