PRB monitoring
▪ FABEC stated that half of the Union-wide RAD simplifications applied in 2020 were within FABEC airspace and that eNM measures were not needed. This helped improve the shortest constrained routes within FABEC, but was not sufficient in helping to reach the FAB-level KEA reference value (2.90%) in 2020. At a national level, Belgium and Luxembourg achieved a KEA performance of 3.37% and the FABEC reference value is 2.90%.
▪ FABEC mentioned that KEA is proportional to delays and stated that this impacted performance. The PRB does not agree with this as FABEC did not experience significant delays in 2020 and Belgium achieved its capacity breakdown value.
▪ While the share of flights operating CCO/CDO at Brussels airport improved in 2020 compared to 2019, the CDO performance is below the level achieved in 2016 when there was more congestion. The additional time airspace users spent taxiing or holding in terminal airspace reduced by 30% compared to 2019.
