Airports
Nearly 200 airports are classified as Level 3 with significant slot constraints which can hamper network growth. From capacity 'creation' to using slot policy to support the right mix of airlines, a commercially-focussed slot strategy can help deliver network strategies and commercial growth.Airport Capacity Optimisation
Even airports that are slot-constrained want to grow!
But these airports can find it challenging to find capacity to deliver their network strategy or grow passenger numbers.
Slotwise Consulting works with airports to identify opportunities to ‘create capacity’ and find the sweet spot of commercial & operational feasibility.
WASG Best Practice
The WASG outline the industry-agreed approach to the schedule planning process.
However, airport capacity declarations, airline scheduling processes and coordinator interpretations can all vary from agreed best practice.
Slotwise Consulting works with stakeholders to improve outcomes through better aligning processes with the industry benchmark or airport-specific alternative processes.
Slot Policy
Slot policy impacts the strategic aspirations of airports, often for many years into the future.
So it is important to get it right.
Slotwise Consulting works with clients to understand the regulatory challenges presented by current policy and identify opportunities to shape it for the future.
Air Service Development
Passenger numbers are not the only metric to measure an airport’s success.
A network (or air service development) strategy complements passenger growth, ensuring that growth comes from strategically-important markets.
Slotwise Consulting works with airports to develop a strategic route development plan which delivers both passenger growth as well as network depth and breadth.
Seasonal Planning Process Improvement
Many airports can benefit from optimising the seasonal and long-term planning processes, whether via the implementation of industry best practice processes or specific planning criteria.
Slotwise Consulting identifies opportunities for process improvement, leading to improved route networks, more passengers and increased revenue.
Training & Workshops
With expertise across a wide range of slot strategy and air service development, Slotwise Consulting can tailor-make training and workshops to suit a client’s needs.
