Aerolíneas advierten riesgos para la aviación en Colombia por cambios en norma para asignar despegues y aterrizajes

TL;DR

  • Iata expressed concern to the Ministry of Transport about proposed changes to slot allocation and monitoring rules at El Dorado Airport.
  • The proposed changes would deviate from international standards (Worldwide Airport Slot Guidelines - WASG).
  • Iata warns of potential operational, commercial, and passenger impacts from these changes.
  • The WASG have been in place in Colombia for over a decade and are credited with El Dorado's growth.
  • The proposed modifications could affect historical rights of operators who have invested in Colombia.
  • Iata suggests that infrastructure capacity increases, not regulatory changes, are needed to address congestion at El Dorado.
  • The association also noted that the current monitoring system for slots has not been fully implemented.
  • Iata is concerned about the public consultation process for the proposed changes, requesting an urgent meeting.
