“Outplacement of Aircraft”

By Christoph Aumüller, Leandra Boudewijn, Philippe Gadet, Reinier van der Marel, Dimitris Rath, Aviation Management, Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences

A large hub-airport with a strong home carrier represents usually one of the most important economic drivers for a certain region or even for a whole country. Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AAS) is such a driver, especially for North Holland but also for the Netherlands as the fourth largest airport in Europe. Therefore it is clear that one main objective is to maintain this mainport-status also in the future. Establishing and remaining such a status of an airport is always connected to growth concerning passenger numbers and numbers of flight movements due to the worldwide growing aviation market.

Environmental concerns like noise and CO2 pollution are more and more considered nowadays by slapping restrictions on air traffic and these are especially in the Netherlands quite strict. Therefore it is mainly the environmental capacity which is a constraint at Schiphol and not really the physical one like at many other airports in Europe. The Dutch government established a set of restrictions concerning these environmental belongings and therefore today and in the future the capacity of Schiphol is and will be limited.

The World Route Development Forum

The main reasons for this dramatic increase are that carriers are having to overcome a variety of very serious challenges - a severe yield squeeze caused by the global recession, the renewed rise in oil prices; increased competition; record aircraft deliveries ordered in pre-recessionary times - and this is driving them to seek out fresh markets, opening up new opportunities for airports.
