FREQUENTIS and ENAV elevate airport efficiency and sustainability in Milan with Arrival Manager

Italian Air Navigation Service Provider (ANSP) ENAV has announced the Frequentis AMAN has transformed approach flights within the Milan Area Control Centre, responsible for the airspace over north-west Italy. By dynamically calculating Estimated Landing Times (ELDT) and updating Target Landing Times (TLDT), this innovative system assists air traffic controllers in sequencing arrivals, reducing flight time, and promoting fuel conservation at Milan Malpensa, Milan Linate, and Bergamo Orio al Serio airports.

The impact of AMAN’s implementation is substantial, with ENAV estimating an average reduction of 30 seconds per flight arriving at Malpensa Airport, resulting in fuel savings of 30 kilograms, equivalent to approximately 93 kilograms of CO2 emissions per flight.
