Impact of Slot Substitution on CTOP PerformanceThe Air Traffic Management community has made important progress in collaborative trajectory management through the introduction of an FAA traffic management initiative called a Collaborative Trajectory Options Program (CTOP). A CTOP is also collaborative in that it permits airlines to provide a set of preferred reroute options (called a Trajectory Options Set or TOS) around an FCA. Airlines also specify a Relative Trajectory Cost (RTC) for each trajectory option that specifies cost of each route relative to the most preferred option. CTOP also airlines to do slot substitution. In this report, we discussed a specific scenario where airlines can reduce their delays by specifying relative slot cost as RTC and using subbing aggressively.
