Flight Operations

Flight Operations.

To ensure efficient flight operations, numerous regulations must be adhered to, and all partners must collaborate safely and reliably. Safety remains the highest priority. In aviation, learning from mistakes and continuously improving operations is deeply ingrained in the culture. It is no surprise that aircraft are the safest mode of transportation globally. Punctuality and accessibility are also key aspects of flight operations.

What we do for this …

Air Traffic Control The Deutsche Flugsicherung (DFS) ensures that all flights in German airspace reach their destination safely and on time. Air traffic controllers and state-of-the-art technology support this process.

Punctuality To ensure that flights can take off and land on time worldwide, system partners and authorities work closely together. The actual punctuality of flights depends on various factors.

Accessibility To enable barrier-free travel for everyone, airports and airlines offer a range of free services.

Cabin Air Quality Onboard an aircraft, strict attention is paid to the quality of cabin air — this is ensured through legal regulations, modern technology, and an active reporting system.

Civil Drones and Air Taxis The number of commercially and privately operated civilian drones in German airspace is rapidly increasing. Air taxis are on the verge of being approved. The safe integration of these aircraft into civilian airspace remains a major challenge.
