Why do planes keep circling before landing? UN has a plan to fix it
Reported by UN News, not nibnow. We are not the publisher of this story, only the source is.
WHY IT MATTERS
Air traffic delays are costing billions of dollars and adding emissions, turning flights into stressful ordeals for passengers, so improvements could save money and reduce environmental impact.
WHAT HAPPENED
Air traffic delays cost billions and turn journeys into ordeals. Some countries are already proving that better coordination saves thousands of flying hours and cuts emissions – and the UN’s aviation agency wants the rest of the world to follow.
WHAT TO WATCH
- •ICAO’s rollout of coordinated air traffic flow management guidelines
- •Adoption of the new coordination approach by additional countries or regions
- •Follow‑up reports on delay reductions and emission cuts after implementation
