From June to August 2024, nearly 47% of all ATFM delays were weather-related — highlighting the critical need for better strategies to manage adverse weather and keep summer air traffic moving efficiently.
Join us on 22 May, between 14.30-15.10, for an engaging EUROCONTROL fireside chat, where Steven Moore, Head of ATM Network Operations, and Yolanda Portillo, Head of the Network Manager Operations Centre, will outline how we are enhancing the integration of weather data into both pre-tactical and tactical decision-making — in close collaboration with operational partners across Europe.
They will also share key takeaways from past severe weather events that heavily disrupted flight trajectories and network flows, and explain how those lessons are shaping our response this summer.
This session is essential for operational professionals looking to better understand how EUROCONTROL, as Network Manager, supports the aviation community in handling severe weather and other operational challenges.
We will also zoom out to consider the broader context: with capacity constraints expected at several control centres this summer, the discussion will reinforce the importance of network-wide coordination. This fireside chat ties into our #thinkNetwork campaign, underscoring why local decisions must account for their wider impact on the European air traffic network.
