Sustainable development as a key driver of economic and ecological growth.
Focus on the passengers’ development by attracting low-cost carriers
For selectively chosen cargo segments, orchestration of the logistics chain, so
that the flow of goods from shippers becomes more efficient, effective and
sustainable by choosing the Ostend-Bruges airport.
More ecological terminal available to the passengers
Capacity utilization improvement by making agreements with eco-conscious
partners.
Implementation of a proactive and transparent communication towards the
stakeholders and will constantly search for synergies with other (air) ports.
By 2017 Ostend-Bruges airport will be an example in sustainable
development for small and medium sized cargo- and passenger
airports in NorthWest Europe. As well for the direct users
(airlines, passengers, shippers and forwarders, …) as for indirect
users (neighbors, public stakeholders, action groups, …).
Ostend-Bruges airport will therefor be recognized on an
international scale as a driving force for development of
sustainable aviation business.

INCREASED DOMINANCE OF LOW-COST MODELS
Growing market share as we speak…
Even more pressure on airport charges expected
Development of commercial non-aeronautical activities
and revenues becomes crucial !

EUROPEAN AIRPORTS AS EMPLOYERS
On site:
jobs created by aviation industry in EU estimated at 1,9
million
Off site:
1000 on site jobs = 2100 national indirect jobs
MAGNETS FOR WIDER ECONOMIC ACTIVITY
Airport proximity = key to tourism development
= top criteria for company location
= enabler of economic diversification
From Air Traffic Hubs to ECONOMIC HUBS
“Every 18 days, a new company sets up a business at Munich
airport”

ALL AIRPORTS, big or small…
In total (direct, indirect and induced impacts), air transport supports 5,1 million
jobs and contributes over 500Meur to GDP in Europe
In addition, there are over 3,6 million jobs supported through the catalytic
impacts of travel and tourism
Worldwide, the EU region represents 15% of the total jobs and 34% of the GDP
generated by the air transport industry, including the catalytic impacts of travel
and tourism.

Airlines, niche or hub?

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?

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. Results? See slide 41….
