CAPACITY PLANNING USING SUBSYSTEMS HANDLING OF AIRCRAFT, PASSENGERS AND BAGGEGE USING MS EXCEL

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to familiarise one with planning of utilisation of airport capacity. The planning is divided from the viewpoint of time, which is very important to define, so that the company would know its future plans. It also informs about the division of airports from the point of view of capacity, from which the whole administration follows. It describes the contract signed between the airport and the airline company so that the individual flights could be realised. Another topic that will be discussed in my work is Slot coordination, which is a crucial part of planning at airport. It furthermore deals with technical clearance of airplane, fuel refill and luggage check-in. Programme MS Excel is described, which, when used right, is a great asset for the company. The theoretical part is an analysis of two airports, Airport of M. R. Štefánik and Airport Praha-Ruzyně. It evaluates their planning, method of administration and flight organisation and capacity utilisation. The last part of this work consists of a proposal for a more effective flight planning mainly from the viewpoint of time. It is divided into two parts – a so-called planning from the point of view of passengers and from the point of view of airplanes.
