  7. Different answers on new challenges on the changing European air-traffic market Airport network: co-ordinated airport group at national and/or regional level (e.g.: AENA – Spain, LFV – Sweden, PPL – Poland, Manchester Airport Group – UK) Alliance anchor hub: hub where the major airline alliance groups connect (e.g.: London Heathrow, Paris Charles de Gaulle, Frankfurt am Main) Airport city: airport that provides all major services of a city, without leaving the site (e.g.: Munich, Zurich) Multi-modal port: airport city with strong intermodal connections (e.g.: Amsterdam – Schiphol) Airport as final destination: airport that provides a retail/service centre for their own community (e.g.: Athens) Business traffic: airport that tailors to business traffic (scheduled and/or non-scheduled) (e.g.: London City, Farnborough, Le Bourget) “Low Cost” Base: airport which focuses on low cost airlines (e.g.: Bergamo, Charleroi, London Stansted) Freight platform: airport specifically catering to the needs of freight operations (e.g.: Liege, Leipzig) How to convert a regional airport into „Airport City” in Central Europe – The „airLED” projectURBAN TRANSPORT, 2014 – Algarve, 28 – 30 May, 2014

  13. BASED ON WHAT? Transport network: accessibility not only of the airport but also of the whole catchment area multimodal ground transit Advanced Technology: if available in the area (e.g. ICT networks) makes the area more worthwhile for high tech companies Regional marketing How to convert a regional airport into „Airport City” in Central Europe – The „airLED” projectURBAN TRANSPORT, 2014 – Algarve, 28 – 30 May, 2014

  16. ACCESSIBILITY (LAND – AIR) How to convert a regional airport into „Airport City” in Central Europe – The „airLED” projectURBAN TRANSPORT, 2014 – Algarve, 28 – 30 May, 2014 Budapest Modlin Bologna Ljubljana • Road accessibility needs enhancement • Yes coach, no rail • 66 EU destination + 16 international • Weak NC • Road accessibility needs enhancement • Seldom rail connection • 38 EU destination and 2 national • Only LCC • Road accessibility can be enhanced • Yes coach, no rail • 104 destinations • Weak NC • Road accessibility needs enhancement • Yes coach, no rail • 19 destinations • Weak NC • Accessibility as crucial issue for an airport city: all airports are suitable of upgrades or in some cases need strong improvements. • Relying only on weak national carriers or only the on extremely volatile LCC market segment could be risky. For the same reason, regional airports are not likely to develop into airport cities very soon.
