Missed slots due to delayed turnaround can severely impact an airline’s bottom line and may even result in fines. Furthermore, missing your departure slot leads to longer time on the ground, which can be especially painful during peak times or at slot-constrained airports.
One of the most important goals of an airline is to maximise the utilisation of their fleet by minimising the time aircraft spend on the ground. So shaving minutes off turnarounds can equate to significant annual savings across the operation.
