Increased efficiency through
economies of scale
EUROCONTROL’s work is carried out at European
level, with the aim of maximising the safety and
efficiency of the air traffic management network.
The operation of pan-European functions, in close
cooperation with the national partners, generates
cost-efficiencies by way of economies of scale,
while ensuring quality throughout the system.
Two of the EUROCONTROL Agency’s key pan-
European responsibilities are the dynamic management
of air traffic flow in the short, medium and
long term, and the management of an efficient
route-charging mechanism.

EUROCONTROL provides
a unique interface between
aviation’s military and civil
sectors facilitating effective
airspace organisation and
management, meeting the
needs of both these user
communities in Europe.
Towards a more efficient central flow
management function
EUROCONTROL’s centralised flow-management
operations ensure that available capacity is efficiently
utilised by delivering a consistent, timely and
impartial service to all users of the European ATM
network.
There were a number of significant events in 2006,
including the FIFA World Cup in Germany, security
alerts at UK airports, the closure of Lebanon’s airspace
and of Beirut Airport, and unusually disruptive
weather patterns. However, the overall air traffic
flow management (ATFM) delay per flight remained
at 1.9 minutes, the same as it was in 2005, despite
the fact that 2006 was also a record year in respect
of traffic growth.
This performance was achieved through EUROCONTROL’s
ATFM capabilities, which are provided
by the Central Flow Management Unit (CFMU). As
such, the CFMU is pivotal to the overall efficiency of
air traffic operations across Europe.
Operational efficiency
The operational efficiency of all ATM stakeholders
relies on a shared awareness of the network situation,
processes for collaborative decision-making
and immediate access to efficient ATFCM scenarios
for accommodating seasonal trends and extraordinary
events. A stepping stone towards this goal was
the publication of the first summer and winter editions
of the Network Operations Plan (referred to in
the “Capacity” chapter).
Throughout the year, the CFMU also continued to
supply stakeholders with impartial and timely reports
on the ATFM situation, including, as of 2006, a slotcompliance
analysis.
In 2006, the EUROCONTROL Experimental Centre
(EEC) provided support to the CFMU by successfully
completing the Cooperative ATM Measures for
a European Single Sky (CAMES) Project, which investigated
how to improve efficiency by coordinating
the actions of flow managers at local level with
the CFMU. This more effective tactical management
has resulted in significant benefits to aircraft operators.
Live trials took place in October 2006, involving
air navigation service providers, airline operators,
the CFMU and the EEC. The trials concluded that it
was possible to prevent unforeseen sector overloads
and improve safety, reduce delays in the
CAMES area by as much as 20% and balance workload
better between sectors.
The European delay target for summer 2006 was
1 minute of en-route ATFM delay per flight. This pan-
European target takes account of the trade-offs between
the cost of providing ATC capacity and the
delay costs incurred by airspace users. For the summer
season, the average en-route ATFM delay per
flight was 1.4 minutes in 2006, compared to 1.3 minutes
in 2005, but with traffic growth higher than the
average yearly figure at 4.3%. The average airport
ATFM delay was 0.8 minute per flight.
The monetary impact of the lack of ATC capacity experienced
in 2006 was assessed by the PRC at
some €550 million for en-route delay and €500 for
airport delay. The EUROCONTROL Agency is fully
committed to further improving the use of the available
ATC capacity in a progressive manner and
following an industry-wide cooperative approach.

Ensuring the efficient
collection of route charges
EUROCONTROL collects route charges on behalf of
its Member States through its Central Route Charges
Office (CRCO), providing an efficient cost-recovery
system to fund air navigation facilities and services
and to support ATM developments.
Multilateral agreement relating to route charges
2006 was the fourth successive year of growth, with
over 9.34 million flight messages (IFR only)
