The CANSO Air Traffic Management Podcast - Episode 4

As Europeans plan their summer holidays, European ANSPs are preparing for a busy travel season. Overall flight numbers are predicted to grow by 7 per cent compared to last summer and, in some countries, traffic will surpass pre-COVID levels. Yet there is also continued disruption to traffic flows due to the conflict in  Ukraine, military training exercises and more adverse weather.
