PRB monitoring

▪ The Union-wide horizontal flight efficiency (KEA) performance target was not achieved in 2023 (2.99% compared to the target of 2.40%) and performance was at the worst level since 2016. 25 Member States did not achieve their national targets.

▪ 2023 marked the first full year of the effects of Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine on environmental performance, which is reflected in the KEA score being 2.99% in 2023 compared to 2.96% in 2022.

▪ For terminal airspace, both additional ASMA (arrival sequencing and metering area) time and additional taxi-out time increased. Combined, this shows a +5% increase compared to 2022, mainly driven by taxi-out performance. However, it is worth noting that performance remains better than 2019 levels.
