TOUR 7: Flying the Green Deal: Dynamic solutions for airports and airspace

As Europe transitions towards climate neutrality, aviation must evolve to become smarter, more sustainable, and better connected. This tour showcases cutting-edge European projects that are shaping the future of air traffic management and airport operations - all in line with the ambitions of the EU Green Deal.

Join us on a journey through SESAR research and deployment projects to find out more about SESAR innovations on dynamic routing, adaptive aircraft configuration, and digital remote tower integration.

From optimised flight paths to cross-border coordination and smarter tower operations, the tour offers a first-hand look at how innovation is driving measurable environmental impact - while keeping safety, capacity, and cost-efficiency at the core.
