Watch our webinar recording: How scenario planning of terminal operations supports the successful management of the COVID-19 recovery

On 18th June we held a live webinar introducing an approach to scenario planning of terminal operations during the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. Our goal was to enable airport planners to react flexibly to the new and dynamically changing operating conditions at their airport.

Together with Rakesh Krishnan, Senior Executive for Airport Planning at Bangalore International Airport Ltd, we discussed possible solutions and by combining theory and practice, the group examined how airports can

  • Adjust their planning methodology to manage the recovery
  • Deal with the uncertainty via scenario planning
  • Keep a high confidence in their terminal capacity plans

How scenario planning of terminal operations supports the successful management of the COVID-19 recovery

How scenario planning of terminal operations supports the successful management of the COVID-19 recovery

As most countries are slowly recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic, air traffic is expected to resume and pick up momentum. While restarting operations is good news for all airports, new rules and regulations to protect passengers’ and airport staff’s safety are in full effect and require special planning by airport capacity planners. This important planning aims to lay out possible future scenarios for planners to help be ready for any sort of recovery.

Join our webinar in which we will discuss an approach to scenario planning of terminal operations to successfully manage the recovery from COVID-19:

  • Finding the right balance between safety and efficiency
  • Being flexible and prepared for any kind of operating scenario
  • Keeping passenger confidence high

Make sure that airport operations are viable with the new health and safety measures in place!

Watch our webinar recording: How to tackle air service development under COVID-19 – a practical approach

Due to the impact of the current pandemic, retaining and recovering the route network has become the dominant challenge for literally every airport.On 14th May we have held a live webinar discussing not only the impact of COVID-19, but also a practical approach to air service development during the crisis.

Our team was joined by two aviation experts, Alexander Schroll (Munich Airport International) and Robert Keysselitz (CircleSolution), as well as a large audience that actively participated in the discussion with their comments, questions and input.

A brief poll conducted during the webinar revealed that most of the audience expects the full recovery of the aviation business to take more than two years. Given this context, our experts discussed:

  • Beyond the current lockdown, what could be long-term effects on route development?
  • Which consequences result from the airlines’ adoption to demand changes?
  • Who could be winners and losers of the crisis?

Furthermore, a practical approach helping airports understand their markets was introduced. Using the new BEONTRA Route Portfolio Management feature, the group discussed how airports can

  • Undertake a health check of their network
  • Use RASK and other KPIs to understand which routes are strong or endangered
  • Utilize market data for fact-based conversations with airline partners

Take charge of recovering your airport’s routes after the pandemic!

Take charge of recovering your airport’s routes after the pandemic!

The current pandemic of the novel coronavirus has disrupted the aviation business. In a time where most airports are facing dramatic traffic drops or even a cease of operations, the immediate focus of route development has naturally shifted from developing eager opportunities to retaining and recovering existing routes.

Concentrate on the right routes for a successful restart

In this phase of uncertainty and unparalleled economic pressure…

  • Airlines will concentrate on routes which have proven to be profitable in the past
  • The discussion around incentives is likely to become more important than ever
  • Airports and regional partners need to become more selective and spend their limited budget
    in a way in which it pays off best.

New BEONTRA feature enables airports to identify their focus routes

To support the activities of airports and their airline partners around a restart under the current circumstances, BEONTRA has released a cutting-edge feature to its B Route Development solution.

  • The new Route Portfolio Management allows airports to adopt the airline’s perspective and benchmark their routes against similar airline routes using the main KPIs RASK, load factor, fare and yield.
  • The solution combines BEONTRA’s know-how of aviation best practices with industry standard data sources, such as Sabre Global Demand Data, to provide airports with the relevant route performance insights in one place.
  • The analysis results help airports identify focus routes and vulnerable spots and thus enable them to decide on which routes they should concentrate for the post-pandemic recovery.

Take charge of the recovery and start making data-driven decisions on the appropriate route development actions! Contact us today for a demo!

BEONTRA: Continued operations and support for our customers

The current pandemic of the novel coronavirus and the subsequent rapid spread of COVID-19 have disrupted the regular operations of all our businesses. We are no exception to that and have already taken steps in the past weeks to ensure the safety of our employees and continuity of our service to you, our customers.

  • Over a week ago we already cancelled all customer events, meetings and trade-shows to minimize contact possibilities.
  • All travel is restricted. We will be following any additional guidance on freedom of movement or isolation from the authorities as they change.
  • To minimize contagion spread, all employees have been instructed to work from home until further notice and to actively practice social distancing, both among colleagues and the general public.
  • Prior to the COVID-19 outbreak, we had already begun with the implementation of the newest generation of collaboration tools. This process was accelerated and completed last week so that all employees are able to effectively work from home.
  • All employees are being asked to report any symptoms resembling COVID-19 to both the local health authorities as well as the company. In addition, all employees are asked to maintain elevated levels of personal hygiene.

We understand that this is an utmost exceptional time for both you as our customers and for us as a team. We are continuing to look at ways we can help you with the rapidly changing situation within the aviation industry.

Our operations are continuing and, at this time, we see no significant impact in our ability to support our customers during this critical time. We are available as you are used to and will be just as responsive as always to your needs.

Is COVID-19 disrupting your airport? This is how we support your planning

Is COVID-19 disrupting your airport? This is how we support your planning

IATA recently revealed its “Impact Assessment of the Novel Coronavirus” where they analysed the potential impact of the health epidemic on the global and regional aviation markets through multiple what-if scenarios. The sharp decline in flight ticket bookings and the quick spreading the virus forced airlines to start cancelling flights in vast numbers that in turn significantly reduces the number of passengers and aircraft arriving to airports.

This in turn is expected to have a negative economic impact between $63 and $113 billion. As the virus is still spreading, we are yet to see its overall effect on the airports’ flight schedules and predicted passenger numbers. Therefore, just like IATA, airports also need to prepare multiple what-if scenarios to understand how much they would be disrupted.

As many of BEONTRA’s airport customers are affected by this situation, BEONTRA has activated its Cancellation Rate feature free of charge for the duration of this health epidemic. All community members using B Tactical for their Flight Schedule Management or Budget Forecasting tasks will benefit automatically. Hopefully, the feature will be of help to prepare for the highly unexpected and severe effects of the Coronavirus on their operations.

With this feature, the user can select for which set of flights which absolute number or percentage of flights need to be cancelled and for what period of time. Use it in combination with the standard bulk changes on expected aircraft types and seat load factors to create multiple scenarios within minutes and allow for aligned decision making.

BEONTRA hopes that even in these difficult times, airports can plan their business processes in a way that is efficient and will make most of the situation. We would like to encourage you to contact us at support@beontra.com in case you need further assistance with your planning tasks as we are here to help you wherever we can.
