On 20 June 2001 the European Commission adopted a proposal to modernise the current allocation system for landing and take-off slots at EU airports with a view to enhancing its efficiency. The Commission also announced a fundamental review of the slot allocation system, with an in-depth study to be launched in the coming months, followed by a broad consultation with Member States and the aviation industry. The overall objective of the changes proposed is to ensure that scarce capacity at Europe's congested airports is managed and used efficiently without radical change to the system of slot allocation built around 'grandfather' or 'historical' slots. |
