Event details

Intelligent Approach is the world’s only Time Base Separation tool, delivering greater capacity, better on time performance and a reduction in carbon emissions at Heathrow, Toronto and Schiphol airports.

In this session you’ll learn about two world first deployments.

Pairwise Separation is a totally new way of calculating the minimum separation between individual arriving pairs of aircraft. Based on the specific characteristics of each aircraft type, this tailored way of managing the flow of arrivals further boosts capacity, reduces holding and cuts fuel burn. Now deployed for Heathrow, you’ll hear about how it was done, and the benefits being delivered so far.

Delivering an arrival spacing tool for a single runway, mixed mode airport is something that’s never been done before. Due for deployment at one of the world’s busiest single runway airports in March 2025, the panel will discuss how Intelligent Approach is able to integrate both arriving and departing traffic to further enhance operational efficiency and boost on time performance.
