Abstract

Airport charges that make up airports’ aeronautical revenue generate more than fifty per cent of total airport revenue. At most airports runway charges are the second largest source of aeronautical revenue making them an important tool for airport managers. Although there are some general rules in force that set out the principles according to which these charges should be set airport managers are given a lot of freedom in terms of particular solutions. In this paper we present various potential applications of runway charges as means of achieving operational and strategic management goals. By analyzing charging schemes of more than 50 airports in EEA countries conclusions were drawn regarding the extent to which this type of airport charge is used as an operations and strategic management tool.
