SESAR Walking Tours 2026 - Walking Tour 9 - Wednesday 27 May
WEDNESDAY 27 MAY 13:30-15:10
Tour 9: TBO – planning and deployment
Trajectory-based operations (TBO) is a cornerstone of the future European ATM system, enabling aircraft trajectories to be shared, updated and managed collaboratively across the network. This walking tour explores how SESAR research, demonstrations and early deployment initiatives are supporting the planning and implementation of TBO capabilities across Europe.
Participants will discover solutions enabling trajectory data sharing through ADS-C, FF-ICE flight information exchange and network-level trajectory synchronisation. Through demonstrations from airlines, ANSPs and the Network Manager, the tour highlights how improved trajectory information, advanced analytics and collaborative decision-making are supporting the transition towards more predictable, efficient and environmentally sustainable flight operations.
Walking tour guide: Nil Agacdiken, SESAR Joint Undertaking, and Franck Montoya, SESAR Deployment Manager
