PRB monitoring

▪ Union-wide horizontal flight efficiency (KEA) performance targets were not achieved in 2022 and performance was at the worst levels since 2016. 25 Member States did not achieve their national/FAB targets.

▪ Horizontal flight efficiency deteriorated due to considerable capacity constraints, route extensions due to the closure of Ukrainian and Russian airspaces to European carriers following the Russian war of aggression against the Ukraine, and the continued avoidance of Belarus-ian airspace (since May 2021).

▪ For terminal airspace, both additional ASMA (holding) time and additional taxi-out time in-creased. Combined this shows a +28.9% increase compared to 2021, mainly driven by taxi-out performance. However, it is worth noting that performance remains better than 2019 levels.

En route performance

Horizontal flight efficiency of the actual trajectory (KEA) (KPI#1), of the last filed flight plan (KEP) (PI#1) & shortest constrained route (SCR) (PI#2)
