8. Capacity

This is an estimation of the airport capacity as a percentage of the nominal capacity and not as the expected demand. We consider the airport nominal capacity as reported in the Airport Corner Current Capacity section.

We acknowledge that the airport infrastructure, ground services and staff will only be enabled when demand is confirmed. This information has been provided to the best of the airport knowledge (the best guess), even when it is not 100% certain. Keep in mind that this information is not an obligation but serves as a reference for all the ATM stakeholders and to NMOC to make an assessment of the upcoming network situation.

Start date	End date	Capacity
Start date	End date	Expected Global Capacity (%) See current capabilities (normal conditions)	Influencing factors (e.g. ATC staff, ground handling, aircraft parking issues, landside issues, …)
13-05-2020	31-05-2020	15 %	We expect until end of May to operate at 15% of the nominal capacity for pax flights in terms of aircraft parking capacity & handling capacity. Demand for this period is continuously monitorred in the APOC and capacity is planned accordingly. All partners are ready to increase capacity as soon as demand resumes. Capacity for cargo flights has been increased to follow increase in demand. Night ops restrictions have been lifted by the government.
01-06-2020	31-08-2020	25 %	Between 1st of June and 1st of September, we expect to be able to increase capacity again to 25% for pax flights in terms of aircraft parking capacity, handling capacity and all required airport facilities to follow increasing demand. All partners are ready to increase capacity as soon as demand resumes. Capacity for cargo flights will remain increased to follow the increase in demand.
01-09-2020	31-12-2020	45 %	As of 1st of September we expect to operate at 40% of the nominal capacity. All partners will remain ready to increase capacity as soon as demand resumes.
