ACI and ICAO Define Regional Safety Framework As reported in the last bulletin ACI participated in an ICAO meeting tasked with the definition of regional safety targets. The meeting reached a number of important agreements on the content of the ICAO Asia Pacific Regional Aviation Safety Plan.
The 13th ICAO Asia Pacific Regional Aviation Safety Team meeting (APRAST/13) was held at the ICAO Bangkok Regional Office from 3 to 7 December 2018. The meeting had a special session to discuss and define the framework of the Regional Aviation Safety Plan, a document that will spell out short-, mid- and long-term safety targets of the 39 States in Asia Pacific and the corresponding safety measures to achieve these targets. ACI along with other industry associations were invited to participate in the special session.
The Regional Aviation Safety Plan is a significant document because the safety targets it defines will be cascaded down to States, and through their regulators, further down to the regulated entities, such as airports and airlines. The draft plan is still in formation but airports should take note of key tentative agreements reached at the December meeting between States and the industry associations due for final approval by an ICAO supervisory body (RASG-APAC) in the last quarter of 2019. The agreements are:
• International airports will be required to have Runway Safety Teams in place;
• States, hence airports, will be pushed to improve collection and sharing of safety data, i.e. statistics of accidents and incidents; and
• There will be a campaign to prioritize aviation safety in the national planning framework on the agendas of the 39 States’ governments.
On the requirement for Runway Safety Team, ACI Asia Pacific members are reminded of the resolution adopted at the 11th ACI Asia Pacific Regional Assembly in April 2016. The resolution urged airports to create such teams as soon as possible. In response, the ACI Asia Pacific Regional Operational Safety Committee (ROSC) drafted a set of guidelines for the establishment and operations of Runway Safety Teams, planned to be published this year.

ACI Helps Airports Prepare for New Global Reporting Format (GRF) for Runway Surface Conditions When an aircraft veers off from a runway or overshoots the end of a runway while attempting to take-off or land, it is a runway excursion. A recent example of runway excursion is the skidding off to the grass from the runway of a B747 trying to land on a heavily rainy night at Bangkok Suvarnabhumi airport last October. One of the ways to help prevent such kind of mishaps is to provide accurate and timely information on the conditions of the runway surface to the pilot so that he or she can maintain a good control on the aircraft, a heavy piece of machinery hurtling at 200 mph with hundreds of lives on board, for example by applying a more appropriate braking action. Such critical information tells the pilot whether the runway is wet, simply damp, or covered with ice or slush, etc.
Providing accurate and timely information on runway surface conditions to the pilot is crucial for maintaining good control on the aircraft and ensuring safety on the runway.
After lengthy discussions between State regulators and the industry, ICAO has published a new reporting format for such purpose, called “Global Reporting Format for Runway Surface Condition” and mandated its use from 5 November 2020.
To help airports, pilots, regulators and air traffic controllers understand this new format, ACI and ICAO are jointly organizing a series of seminars and symposium. The first is a global symposium to be held at the ICAO Headquarters in Montreal from 26 to 28 March 2019. Each ACI Regular Member is entitled to two free registrations; additional delegates are chargeable at 500 USD each. For registration and details of the symposium, please click here. A series of regional seminars on the subject will be held in Asia Pacific and the Middle East. The first will be organized at the ICAO Asia Pacific Regional Office in Bangkok from 27 to 28 June 2019. The seminar program and registration procedures will be announced in due course. Save the dates first!
ACI Asia-Pacific World Business Partners are also encouraged to participate and sponsor the seminar in Bangkok. For enquiries, please contact Ms. Ruthapichairak Pornrudee, Business Development Officer, ICAO Asia Pacific at [email protected].
Online training courses on Global Reporting Format are also available via ACI Global Training. For further details please visit ACI Online Training Centre website here.

ACI Asia-Pacific Joined Regional Parties to Enhance Security for the Philippines ACI Asia-Pacific has always been committed to enhancing aviation security within the region. On 22 January, the Regional Office was invited to speak at an Aviation Security Partners Coordination Meeting in Manila, organized by ICAO Asia & Pacific Office and the Office for Transportation Security (OTS) of the Philippine government.
The meeting was called with an aim to help improve security level in the Philippines by giving the regulator, airlines and airports in the country a better understanding of the various capacity building activities on security offered by different regional parties. The regional parties in attendance included Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the US, the UK, IATA and ACI Asia-Pacific.
Among the 50+ local participants at the meeting were airport security representatives from Manila Airport, Clark Airport and Mactan-Cebu Airport. The Regional Office delivered a presentation highlighting the ACI’s security capacity building initiatives that the airports in the Philippines can make use of, such as APEX in Security, Developing Nations Airport (DNA) Assistance Programme as well as ACI’s library of guidance materials on security.
In addition, the Regional Office was also invited to an aviation security workshop on 23 January in Manila which was jointly organized by ICAO and IATA. Targeted at the local counterparts, including airports, airlines and ground handling agencies, the one-day workshop focused mostly on best practices sharing on aviation security operations. In view of the recent security incidents concerning trusted insiders, the Regional Office delivered a presentation on what airport security managers should do to address this emerging threat, based on the insider threat guidance document currently being developed by the ACI Asia-Pacific Regional Aviation Security Committee.

ICAO Welcomes ACI’s Work on Getting Airports Prepared for Disease Outbreaks Air transport at major hubs in Asia-Pacific almost ground to a halt during the outbreak of SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) in 2003. The episode was a wakeup call to public health authorities, civil aviation regulars, airports and airlines that there was a need for improvement in the response to outbreaks of communicable diseases. Since then, the consensus on the response to such disease outbreaks amongst States and industry players has been “stop the spread while trying to maintain normal airport operations”.
There were indeed a series of international regulations related to air transport on the prevention of spread of diseases. First, Article 14 of the Chicago Convention that requires States to take measures to prevent the spread of communicable diseases. The International Health Regulation (2005) of the World Health Organization (WHO) also has similar provisions to the same effect. Furthermore, Annex 14 of the Chicago Convention requires airports to have emergency response plans to handle disease outbreaks, in additional to – as one would expect - aircraft accidents.
ACI, with the support of its members, notably members of the ACI World Facilitation & Services Standing Committee has been at the forefront of providing guidance to airports and industry in the establishment of such emergency response plans. In 2009 the Committee produced the “Airport Preparedness Guidelines for Outbreaks of Communicable Diseases”. The second related document, “ACI Emergency Preparedness and Contingency Planning Handbook” was published in 2014.
In November 2018, ACI presented both documents to the tenth meeting of an ICAO group created to facilitate the cooperation between States and Industry in the implementation of plans to prevent the spread of diseases, namely the CAPSCA-AP (Asia Pacific Collaborative Arrangement for the Prevention and Management of Public Health Events in Civil Aviation). China, Sri Lanka, Tanzania and USA, who were also present at the meeting, shared their experience in disease control at airports. The WHO explained how it assessed a State’s capability in meeting the IHR (2005) requirements through the Joint External Evaluations.
The ACI delegation also presented the successful establishment and implementation of a preparedness plan for outbreaks of communicable diseases at Hamad International Airport in Doha, Qatar.
In appreciation of ACI’s work in this area, the ICAO meeting adopted a conclusion “encouraging States to implement the guidance materials of ACI on airports’ preparedness for outbreaks of communicable diseases.”
ACI would like to take this opportunity to thank Ms. Sheila Cantos, Manager Emergency Planning & Administration at Hamad International Airport, for altruistically sharing Doha’s experience in emergency response planning.
The next meeting of CASPCA-AP is tentatively scheduled for Q4 of 2019 in Bangladesh.

ACI made progress on Slots Governance discussions with IATA Since 2016, ACI has committed at the global level to work closely with airlines and the schedule facilitators/ slot coordinators to undertake Strategic Review of the IATA Worldwide Slot Guidelines (WSG) to ensure that airport operators (in addition to airlines) benefit from an equitable global process. This was a project initiated by ACI at the 39th ICAO Assembly and was a first global attempt to improve the current slot allocation process in a fully inclusive manner.
Under the Strategic Review, four Task Forces were created in 2017 to work on 4 priority areas: Airport Level, Historic Determination, Slot Performance Monitoring, and Access to Congested Airports. Currently 22 airport representatives from all ACI Regions participated in the Task Forces under the guidance of the ACI Expert Group on Slots (EGS).
ACI Asia-Pacific Technical & Industry Affairs Bulletin Page 14
Throughout 2017 and 2018, the Task Forces were able to recommend a number of changes to the WSG, with the first batch of amendments published in the 9th edition of the WSG released in January 2019. Highlights of the changes include:
• Adjusted calendar activities; and
• Schedule facilitators/ slot coordinators to inform airport operators of:
a) initial allocation of slots at their airport; b) coordination parameters used for the next season; c) full details by airline of all allocated times and outstanding requests; and d) the actual utilization by airlines of declared capacity.
The Strategic Review process is expected to complete by the end of 2019. ACI continues being engaged in negotiations with IATA to reform the governance of the WSG to ensure equal involvement of airlines and airports in the determination of slot allocation policies. In February 2019, ACI and IATA agreed on a joint proposal to reform the WSG governance with elements that include the following:
• WSG to be renamed as Worldwide Airport Slot Guidelines;
• WSG as the base document, and will include a work programme that commits to studying and considering a list of priorities items put forward by the airport community within 3 years;
• Full reform of the institutional structure of the governance; and
• Equal roles and rights of airports and airlines at advisory and decision-making levels. Schedule facilitators/ slot coordinators to be included in the newly created Worldwide Airport Slot Board with a consultative role.
ACI and IATA will proceed to consult the schedule facilitators/ slot coordinators community on this ACI-IATA joint proposal, with the objective to reach an agreement by the Summer in advance of the 40th ICAO Assembly in September 2019.

ACI provided input to Malaysia regulator in developing the economic regulation framework on Airport Charges ACI has been actively engaged with the Malaysian Aviation Commission (MAVCOM) since it was established in 2016. In particular, ACI was invited to provide input to the various consultations conducted by MAVCOM as it develops a comprehensive economic regulatory framework of airports.
After the first phase of implementing the regulatory approach to Quality of Services, MAVCOM conducted two consultations in 2018 providing details to a proposed aeronautical charges framework. In response, ACI provided comments in March and November 2018 respectively on MAVCOM’s proposed approach, emphasizing that airports operate in a competitive environment, and stressed that either the dual or hybrid till will allow airports to develop and invest in non-aeronautical activities without (or only marginal) subsidization of airline activities via commercial revenues.
MAVCOM is expected to release another consultation paper in the first quarter of 2019 to seek feedback from industry stakeholders regarding the further development of the aeronautical charges framework.
