Destinations portfolio Aeronautical and non-aeronautical revenue Accessibility, public transport (metro, train, bus) and traffic jam free high ways User friendly A secure environment (pro s and con s) The right mix of service at the right place (Legacy Carriers, Tour Operators and LCC s) A network with combination of carriers with point-to-point and intercontinental services (LCC s do normally not fit in) In full crisis one has to plan for the future = keep cool! Who will finance this these days? Dominance of Low Cost Carriers. How to transform this challenge into an opportunity: for the first time, LCC s travel represents +50% of total worldwide passenger traffic and this is still growing! According to ACI, by 2030 European air traffic will double, do we have enough capacity? Where? Right = regional airports. The EU commission adopts new guidelines for state aid to airports and airlines. Where will this take us? 20

Wallonia developed a clear strategy for its airports Liége 24/7 (cargo) & Charleroi daytime airport (passengers) In Liège all neighboring houses had its nighttime rooms insulated including the roof.

22 Wallonia developed a clear strategy for its airports Liége 24/7 (cargo) & Charleroi daytime airport (passengers) In Liège all neighboring houses had its nighttime rooms insulated including the roof. Those complaining were bought out and had to move. The empty houses were rented to TNT personnel In Charleroi a full village was demolished and remaining houses had all daytime rooms insulated, including the roof. Not happy = move Both in Liège and Charleroi the Walloon region invested over 500 Meur(each) in new and improved infra-structure and created commercial companies to promote the airports worldwide.
