Our Services

ACL provides three levels of coordination services to airports:

  • Level 1 – data collection, providing advance schedule notification (up to 5 months from season start), and automatic data feeds to airport operational databases. 
  • Level 2 – facilitation, where peak period airport capacity issues are resolved through (voluntary) schedule adjustments by airlines.
  • Level 3 – slot coordination, where imbalances between airline demand and airport capacity are resolved through a mandatory process of slot allocation, enforced by a slot monitoring regime.

Slot Trading – the slottrade.aero web portal helps airlines wishing to buy, sell, lease and swap airport slots.  Its aim is to make slot trading more open, efficient and transparent.

Data Sales and Analysis – ACL’s slot database is the definitive airport schedule information.  Customers can subscribe to this data to undertake a variety of resource planning functions.

Consultancy and Training – ACL provides a range of services that build on our core skills:

  • Forecasting and forecast scheduling
  • Capacity optimisation and enhancement
  • Airport route development
  • Special event management
  • Punctuality and performance analysis
  • Coordination system and scheduling process training

ACL’s customers benefit from our broad experience in managing issues of airline demand and airport capacity at a wide range of airports.  We have an extensive network of contacts with airlines, airports, regulators and governments, and can draw upon the expertise of our partner consultancy firms and associates to offer comprehensive solutions and advice.
