Heathrow Tells Airlines to Stop Selling Summer Tickets - BBC

Excerpt from BBC

The UK's biggest airport is struggling to cope with the rebound in air travel and has told airlines to stop selling summer tickets.

Over the summer months, the airport will limit the number of passengers who can leave each day to 100,000, 4,000 less than currently scheduled.

There will be a cap on the number of passengers from now on.

Thousands of UK travellers have been disrupted recently.

Demand for holidays has caused airlines and airports to struggle to find staff. The summer holiday season in the UK begins in a few weeks.

The May chaos was caused by a shortage of airline and airport staff.

The temporary government "amnesty" to the rules on airport slots was put in place to allow airlines to change their summer schedules.

airlines are still planning to operate flights with more passengers than can be processed in an acceptable manner

The response to the European Commission's public consultation on international freight and passenger transport focused on the importance of rail as an alternative to air transport and reduced emissions from business travel. Rail is the first choice for European travel in the year 2030. The relationship with the voice of the European Railway was improved. A4E; EU Travel Tech and ECTAA were some of the associations that took part in the European Tourism Manifesto working group. A meeting was held with Jan-Christoph Oetjen to discuss business travel and sustainable travel. To find out more about the actions in the EU during June, please contact clogsan@gbta.org.

There are key points.

This is the first thing. The recovery of covid-19.

The EU Covid certificate is updated.

The validity of the certificate will be extended for another year. If this is still needed after the first six months, a review clause has been added.

There is a European scenario hub.

The EU launched a new online modelling hub called the European COVID-19 Scenario Hub, which will present modelling projections on how the COVID-19 epidemic may evolve in terms of cases, hospitalisations, and deaths. Pandemic planning will be made easier by it. Here, you can view more information.

There are two Legislations relevant to achieving the EU's climate targets are developed.

There is an alternative fuels infrastructure.

The EU adopted its position on the AFIR regulation on June 2nd. The main points of the position are shown here.

• The main objective is to ensure that the public has access to a sufficient infrastructure network for recharging or refuelling road vehicles or ships with alternative fuels.
• The proposal also aims to provide alternative solutions so that ships moored at the quayside and stationary aircraft do not need to keep their engines running.

Refuel EU aviation.

On the 2nd of June, the Council adopted its position on the RefuelEU Aviation proposal to increase demand for and supply of sustainable aviation fuels. Here you can view more details on the Council position.

• The position includes the obligation for aviation fuel suppliers to ensure that all fuel made available to aircraft operators at EU airports contains a minimum share of SAF from 2025 and, from 2030, a minimum share of synthetic fuels, with both shares increasing progressively until 2050 (blending mandate and sub-mandate).

The EU Emission Trading System can be extended to roads and buildings.

The EU Emissions Trading System is a carbon market based on a system of cap-and-trade of emission allowances for energy-intensive industries. On the 22nd of June, the European Parliament agreed on a more ambitious emissions trading scheme. Commercial buildings and road transport will be covered by the new ETS from 2024. There is more information on the position here.

The buildings and road transport sectors will be included in the new system. Information on the Council position can be found here.

The EU emissions trading system is related to aviation.

Free emission allowances will be phased out gradually by the Council. Extra-European flights to and from third countries that are part of CORSIA will be applied to by EU operators. 20 million of the phased-out free allowances will be set aside to cover the additional costs associated with sustainable aviation fuels. Here, you can view more information.

The Renewable Energy Directive is also known as the Energy Efficiency Directive.

On the 27th of June, the Council adopted its negotiating positions.

• On the renewable energy directive, the Council agreed to set a binding EU-level target of 40% of energy from renewable sources in the overall energy mix by 2030.
• On the energy efficiency directive, the Council agreed to reducing energy consumption at EU level by 36 % for final energy consumption and 39 % for primary energy consumption by 2030. The key target of 36% reduction at EU level for final energy consumption would be binding.

There are three. There are other updates.

IATA CO2 Connect is an online tool to calculate CO2 emission for any given flight. Here, you can view more information.

The Commission has launched an alliance to make hydrogen-powered and electric aircraft a reality. You can join the alliance here and see more information on it.

Heathrow Airport Experiences 40 Years of Passenger Growth in Last 4 Months

In the first six months of the year, 25 million passengers have traveled through the UK's flagship airport. Over the last 40 years, passenger numbers have grown at an unprecedented rate. By the end of July, we will have as many people working in security as we had before the outbreak, because we started recruiting back in November. Terminal 4 has been reopened to give passengers more space to disembark. As a result of delays at other airports and airspace congestion across Europe, arrivals punctuality is very low and this has compounded the challenge of resource constraints for the airport. We have been able to give a good level of service to the majority of passengers. Despite our best efforts there have been periods in recent weeks where service levels have not been acceptable, with long queue times, bags not travelling with passengers or arriving late, and we want to apologize to any passengers who have been affected by this. In June, the DfT asked the aviation sector to review summer schedules, including implementing a slot amnesty to encourage airlines to remove flights without penalty. Passengers are our number one priority at the airport. We will look at the schedule changes to see if they help. People won't have traveled in a while. Passengers can help prepare for their journeys by ensuring they arrive at Heathrow no earlier than 3 hours before their flights, that they have their liquids less than 100ml packed in a clear,sealable 1lt bag, and that they remove their large electronic items from their bags prior to security checkpoint. We will make a comment on the latest analysis of the H7 regulatory period.

The equivalent of 40 years of growth in just four months was seen last month as nearly six million people left for other countries. Our team is rising to the challenge of growth and giving excellent service to the majority of passengers. We have already seen times when demand surpasses the capacity of the airport.

If necessary, we will ask airlines to take further action after reviewing the schedule changes they have submitted. Everyone who is travelling through the airport should be confident in their journey.
