Transcription

1 Held under the patronage of H.H. Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, President of the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority, Chairman of Dubai Airports, Chairman and Chief Executive of Emirates Airline and Group 5-6 NOVEMBER 2018 RODA AL BUSTAN DUBAI Bringing together the regional & international ATC network to discuss the latest in airspace design, air traffic flow management, autonomous aviation, modality, environment & remote towers. THE MIDDLE EAST AIR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT HUB FOR A GLOBAL INDUSTRY ORGANISED BY: IN ASSOCIATION WITH:

2 WELCOME Dubai air traffic is growing between 5 to 7 per cent annually, higher than the global average of 3.5 per cent. The UAE s airspace currently handles approximately 600,000 movements a year which is expected to rise to 1.2 million by 2025, increasing to 1.62 million by This vast growth in air traffic across the region plus the airlines need to constantly streamline expenses, means air traffic management is an issue that urgently needs addressing in order to cut costs and enable airlines to expand efficiently. Global Air Traffic Management (GATM) will open the door of opportunity for innovation and new ideas by gathering leading industry experts to address air traffic management issues and offer valuable insights into future of ATC. The two-day conference will discuss and debate the key disruptors in ATC stationed alongside the innovative exhibition which will showcase new solutions to common challenges and help reinvent ATC. The event will address regional challenges such as fog, high traffic volumes coupled with runways in close proximity, along with international opportunities such as remote towers, UTM regulations, crisis recovery and collaboration. We look forward to welcoming you to Dubai this November. Jodie Fowler Conference Manager Tarsus F&E Guided by the road map set forth for the Aviation sector by HRH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, UAE Vice President, Prime minister and Ruler of Dubai, to transform Dubai to become the capital of Global Aviation, we, at Dubai Air Navigation Services have been continuously striving to cater to this larger than life vision. As the world observes closely, we look forward to sharing Dubai s story of success in managing one of the busiest airspaces, with the officials and dignitaries attending the Global Air Traffic Management conference.
