Johannesburg International Airport (JNB) AbstractThis research analyses the impact of the new Airbus A380 on the air transportation market. It describes the A380 programme, the A380 aircraft specifications, market response to the implementation of the aircraft, airlines that have ordered the airplane and the impact of the A380 on airports and worldwide air traffic. It also provides a detailed analysis of chosen airports around the world that are preparing to accommodate the jet and the investments they require relating to the future operations of the super jumbo.Research Overview This Frost & Sullivan research service entitled World Airports Markets - Impact of the A380 provides a detailed analysis of potential future destination airports for A380 air traffic and their capacity to accommodate the jet, along with the investment levels allotted to prepare these airports to future operations of the jet. The study also introduces the A380 programme, evaluates market response to the jet and its impact on international air traffic and provides coverage of its key customers. Market Sectors Expert Frost & Sullivan analysts thoroughly examine the following market sectors in this research: By Application
The following technologies are covered in this research:
Airbus A380 Set for Smooth Take-off The Airbus A380 has made a dramatic entry in the air transportation industry, generating great interest and capturing the attention of all industry participants. This super jumbo jet has already had a significant impact on the industry, with airports making substantial investments to accommodate it. The number of A380-related projects is steadily increasing as airports and airlines work on planning future air traffic based on the hub-and-spoke system and accordingly managing their aircraft fleets. "The A380 will be beneficial in the hub-and-spoke air traffic system between major connecting hubs, enabling increased service of passengers even between major congested hubs," notes the analyst of this research service. "Such a large airplane will allow the air transportation industry to achieve the desired market growth despite constraints at destination or departure airports." The A380 is expected to impact the industry in two ways. On the one hand, the immense capacity of the aircraft opens up opportunities to increase passenger flow through airports without increasing the number of aircrafts. This is likely to enhance efficiency of airports as well as minimise unit costs, an important advantage considering the limited number of slots at airports. The flip side of this is that airports will need to restructure their facilities and invest heavily in infrastructure to enable future operations of the A380. However, it appears that many airports are more than prepared for the projected expenditure since they expect to gain multiple advantages from the future operations of the jet. Large Size of A380 Brings Large Challenges The sheer size of the Airbus A380 brings with it immense potential but equally big challenges. Currently, the greatest challenge facing the industry is the need to adjust their facilities to accommodate an airplane code F, when most of the major international airports have the required infrastructure for aircraft code E. Although Airbus initially developed the A380 to operate on runways of code E standard, subsequent rulings by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) stated that it belonged to code F category and called for airports to expand their facilities to accommodate it. "Hence, airports are spending millions of dollars for investment in this infrastructure," says the analyst. "However, regulators and the aviation industry representatives have now struck a compromise that allows airports to be certified for A380 operations while minimising capital expenditure and operational disruption." Overall, airports are divided in their attitude towards the A380 and the modifications it demands depending on their current position in international air traffic. While some airports feel they have no choice but to embrace the changes, some others are deciding on the feasibility of preparing their facilities and handling the jet after carrying out a cost-benefit analysis. The remaining airports fall into the category of those that voluntarily make the required adjustments in an attempt to increase the airport’s appeal in the international arena and thereby, attract new airlines operating the A380.
