Major commercial airports rely on multiple parties for safe and efficient operations. Air traffic controllers coordinate approaches to the airport, aircraft movements on the ground, and departures from the airport. Airline personnel coordinate activities on the parking ramps and at passenger gates. Third parties may service aircraft at gates or at designated stations (e.g., for de-icing). In recent years, major airlines in the US have altered their route structures and schedules to concentrate their flight activity at a few mega-hubs. Consolidation of this sort and hub operations of express freight carriers strain some airports while other airports now have excess capacity. System performance is affected by the concentration of airline flight schedules, activities of air express carriers, taxiway and ramp layouts, resources allocated for gate operations, air traffic control (ATC) procedures, adverse weather conditions, and traffic backups at major connecting hubs.
