New Regulations Bring Transparency to Saturated Airport Operations
Mexico’s Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC) is set to issue new rules governing slot allocation and aircraft priority handling at saturated airports. The regulations aim to modernize the nation’s air traffic framework by aligning with recent amendments to Mexico’s Airport Law Regulations and international best practices. The new framework will establish standardized criteria for awarding slots and define mechanisms for monitoring and evaluating slot utilization. According to AFAC, the update is expected to improve air traffic efficiency and safety, and was first reported by Unknown Source.
