Amongst the most efficient in Europe
7 June 2012: Eurocontrol's Annual Cost Benchmarking (ACE) Report published on 1st June 2012 confirms the competitiveness of the IAA Air Navigation Service.
With the advent of European Regulation for En Route Services from 1st January 2012 and ongoing Terminal Cost regulation, the IAA has performed very well in a European Context. This report presents factual data and analysis on cost-effectiveness and productivity for 37 Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) in Europe. The analysis focuses primarily on costs that are under ANSPs' direct control and responsibility, namely ATM/CNS provision costs.
Our overall cost efficiency remains strong with a cost per composite (total) flight hour of €366 against a European average of €419 (e.g. Belgium €725, Germany €464 , UK €412, France €441, Sweden €387). Our en route costs were €363 per flight hour against a European average of €415 and terminal costs per movement were €101 with the European average being €115.
IAA charges to customers have reduced for airport approaches by 21% in 2012 and en route overflights by 8.9%. Delays to flights were also amongst the lowest in Europe. This continues a trend of improving efficiency and competitiveness in an increasingly challenging Aviation Environment.
