The Department for Transport’s Air Navigation Guidance sets out expectations on the aviation industry to be transparent about their ongoing operations.
Airports and Air Navigation Service Providers are expected to inform and engage overflown communities about aircraft operational change and change to aircraft movements when changes could have a noise impact on communities. Airports should ensure that their local communities have sufficient information to understand the nature and causes of the change.
These expectations for airports are described in detail within CAP1618 Airspace information: transparency about airspace and aircraft movements.
We have collected information from 10 airports and one Air Navigation Service Provider across the UK. These organisations are selected based on current passenger numbers.
We apply marking to determine whether an airport/Air Navigation Service Provider is fulfilling the guidance requirements. We do not assess the effectiveness and/or efficiency of the relevant information provision or data type.
