Feature Stories
Get a Free Safety Report! ACI World has launched a program to collect and analyze airport safety data for the benefits of its members worldwide. This initiative is aimed at helping the industry as a whole as well as individual airports better understand the current state of safety. As the old truism goes “you can’t manage what you can’t measure”. The statistics will help ACI identify key safety issues and prioritize resources in the provision of training and handbooks, etc. Members contributing to the program will be rewarded with a free report on the data collected. Please complete the questionnaire and return it to safety@aci.aero by 15 December 2018. The guidelines here explain how to fill in the form.

This new methodology, commonly known as the Global Reporting Format (GRF), ensures a harmonized assessment and reporting of runway surface conditions and a correspondingly improved flight crew assessment of take-off and landing performance. GRF 2019 takes place on 26-28 March 2019 at ICAO Headquarters in Montreal, Canada. ACI members are offered two complimentary registrations per airport for the event. To take advantage of this offer, please email events@aci.aero. Information is also available on the event website.

ACI’s World Airport Traffic Forecast reveals emerging and developing economies will drive global growth
ACI World has published the latest edition of the World Airport Traffic Forecasts (WATF), which reveals that, by 2040, emerging and developing economies will account for more than 60% of all passenger traffic. Global traffic surpassed the 8.2 billion passenger mark in 2017 and the WATF projects that it is expected to double by 2034 based on a growth rate of 4.3% per annum. Over the long term, it is projected to grow at an annualized rate of 4.1%, reaching 20.9 billion by 2040. Over this timeframe, China is predicted to become the largest passenger market with just under 4 billion passengers which will represent a 19% share of the global passenger traffic market. A number of other emerging economies are projected to rise in the rankings including Indonesia, Turkey and Vietnam. To learn more about the report, please read the full press release here.
