Abstract:Arrival metering is a method of time-based traffic management that is used by the Federal Aviation Administration to plan and manage streams of arrival traffic during periods of
high demand at busy airports. The Traffic Management Advisor is an automated scheduling and flow management tool that enables arrival metering. A study using the Federal Aviation
Administration’s Aviation Environmental Design Tool of the effects of implementing arrival metering via the Traffic Management Advisor at Newark International Airport showed a
reduction of between 6 and 11% in fuel consumption for aircraft arriving during peak periods. The greatest benefit was seen by aircraft arriving from Europe.
