Program Professional Framework
Airport Master Planning
Program Overview
Long-term airport development requires balancing traffic growth, land, capital, environment and the needs of airlines, passengers and the surrounding community. This advanced programme covers the full planning cycle: inventory of existing facilities, demand forecasting and design-day schedules, capacity and level-of-service assessment, requirements for airside, terminal and landside facilities, alternatives development and evaluation, phasing and financial feasibility. It draws on ICAO Airport Planning Manual guidance, Annex 14 aerodrome design principles and IATA level-of-service concepts, and adds strategic, governance and stakeholder dimensions relevant to major Gulf airport expansions and national aviation strategies.
Learning Outcomes
- ✓Develop traffic forecasts and design-day schedules using appropriate methods and sensitivity scenarios.
- ✓Assess airside, terminal and landside capacity against demand and level-of-service targets.
- ✓Define facility requirements consistent with ICAO Annex 14 principles and the critical aircraft.
- ✓Generate and evaluate development alternatives using multi-criteria and cost-benefit analysis.
- ✓Prepare a phased capital programme with triggers, funding options and risk assessment.
- ✓Design a governance and stakeholder engagement framework for approving and updating the plan.
Target Audience
- Airport planning and development directors and engineers
- Civil aviation authority planning and economic regulation staff
- Airport strategy, infrastructure investment and asset managers
- Consultants and urban planners working on airport projects

Training Methodology
Applied Project & Assessment
Applied Project
Participants prepare a condensed master plan study for a real or case airport: forecasts with scenarios, capacity gap analysis, facility requirements, two or three evaluated alternatives, a phased capital programme and a governance framework for plan approval and monitoring.
Assessment
Short diagnostic at the start, practical tasks linked to each learning outcome, and evaluation of the applied project against published criteria.
