UK-Irish air traffic controllers collaborate to reduce delays and airline fuel burn

Irish air traffic controllers, working with their counterparts in the UK, have implemented an advanced system which significantly reduces delays for aircraft and passengers travelling into London Heathrow, Europe’s busiest hub airport. The significant enhancement to the existing ‘XMAN’ (Cross-Border Arrival Management) initiative will reduce the length of time that aircraft hold at Heathrow, delivering significant fuel and CO2 emission savings to airlines.
