Contexto
All formal mechanisms for dealing with a lack of airport capacity are based on the concept of an airport slot, which is the time that an aircraft is expected to arrive at or depart from a capacity-constrained airport. For commercial operations which use airport gales, this time is calculated based on when the aircraft arrives at or leaves the gate. To take into account variations in flight times, unavoidable delays, etc., airport slots may actually be allotted in terms of a time period, such as 16:45 to 17:00.
A slot allocated under the scheme permits a specified aircraft movement at a specified time on a specified day. All commercial and private aircraft require a 'Slot' to land or take-off.
