2025 Agenda

The current Air Traffic Management (ATM) charging model was designed more than five decades ago, based on traffic volume and aircraft movements. However, as the aviation landscape evolves with new technologies, automation, and changing traffic patterns, this traditional approach may no longer be sustainable.
This panel will explore:
• How existing charging mechanisms impact the economic sustainability of ANSPs and their ability to invest in modernisation and efficiency improvements.
• Alternative models for financing ATM services.
• The potential economic consequences of shifting towards new service charging mechanisms.
• Lessons from other industries on adapting pricing structures to reflect evolving service delivery models.
As ATM continues to modernise, can we develop a more adaptive, fair, and future-proof economic framework that ensures both efficiency and financial resilience? Join this session to discuss how rethinking ATM financing can unlock new opportunities for airspace users and service providers alike.
