Midland Airport Authority
Midland Airport Authority (MAA)

Improve of the service at the airport

Executive Summary
The Midland Airport Authority (MAA) is a very successful airport in the UK, because it has a good local position and an excellent rail link from the major cities in the UK to the station under the airport. But the increase oft the passenger numbers has brought problems, because the service lost the quality. And therefore we are engaged from the British airport to solve these problems.

Introduction
This report will look at: • the total number of passengers using the terminal per year • results of a passengers survey • an action plan for the coming year

Findings 1. For five years 1.8 million people used the terminal of the MAA. For three years there 2.6 million passengers and last year there were 4.8 million customers. 2. The survey shows that passengers are very satisfied with the good transport link, but they also think that there isn’t enough space for the cars. Passengers are very satisfied with the security, but at the same time they are dissatisfied with the baggage service. 3. The airport hasn’t enough money to invest it in expensive equipment and they want to improve the communication.

Conclusion
The MAA has some big problems and not enough resources to solve this.

Recommendation
The MAA should focus on the improvement of the baggage service and the car park, because this isn’t expensive and these parts of service are very important for the

    Logan Airport: Case Study

    In the case, we learned that adverse weather conditions are primary cause of delays at Logan Airport. When weather conditions deteriorate, or when winds from the northwest become moderately strong, Logan's capacity drops from three runways (where one runway handles both arrivals and departures, one runway only departures, and one runway only arrivals) to two (where two runways handle both arrivals and departures.) Arrival capacity in the former case averages around 60 planes an hour, and in the latter case (a situation that occurs on average 30 days a year), 45 planes an hour. When weather conditions are particularly severe (a situation that occurs on average 10 days a year), only one runway for both arrivals and departures is in operation at Logan, and total arrival capacity drops to 30 operations an hour.…

    What was to be the world’s largest automated airport baggage handling system, became a classic story in how technology projects can go wrong. Faced with the need for greater airport capacity, the city of Denver elected to construct a new state of the art airport that would cement Denver’s position as an air transportation hub. Covering a land area of 140 Km2, the airport was to be the largest in the United States and have the capacity to handle more than 50m passengers annually [1,2]. The airport's baggage handling system was a critical component in the plan. By automating baggage handling, aircraft turnaround time was to be reduced to as little as 30 minutes [1]. Faster turnaround meant more efficient operations and was a cornerstone of the airports competitive advantage. Despite the good intentions the plan rapidly dissolved as underestimation of the project’s complexity resulted in snowballing problems and public humiliation for everyone involved. Thanks mainly to problems with the baggage system, the airport’s opening was delayed by a full 16 months. Expenditure to maintain the empty airport and interest charges on construction loans cost the city of Denver $1.1M per day throughout the delay [3].…
