2 Colin Matthews Chief Executive, Heathrow Airport

3 Heathrow Third Runway NW Option Colin Matthews, Chief Executive

4 UK priority for trade and economic growth Top global destinations by GMP served by other European hubs but not by Heathrow Without capacity for frequent direct long-haul flights the UK is being cut off from important markets

5 Unique importance of a hub A hub airport is uniquely important to establishing long-haul flights. Transfer passengers allow airlines to fly to more destinations more frequently than could be supported by local demand alone.

6 Heathrow supporting the UK in the ‘global race’ Transfer passengers allow Heathrow to serve destinations not served by any other UK airport

7 202 of the UK’s top 300 companies have HQs within a 25 mile radius of Heathrow. Heathrow – best placed…for business and the economy

8 Best placed for passengers With only 17 miles of new railway Heathrow could be further integrated to the southern, western and High Speed 2 rail networks, opening up 2,000 miles of the rail network for passengers and increase use of public transport to Heathrow to 50%

9 Heathrow is getting quieter Even with a third runway, in 2030 there will be around 10-15% fewer people within Heathrow’s noise footprint than today. Quieter planes Phase out noisiest aircraft 90% next generation e.g. A380, 787, A350, A320NEO Only quieter aircraft get new take-off and landing slots Quieter operating procedures New flight paths to avoid populated areas Steeper approaches – 3.2 versus 3 degrees Displaced thresholds – 700m further down runway for smaller aircraft Runway location Each mile west means aircraft are ~300 feet higher over London Respite Alternate runways used for departures and arrivals Periods without over-flight for every community Noise insulation 100% insulation costs for high noise areas or significant new noise

20 Background Air travel is here to stay Heathrow is most travellers airport of choice Heathrow is well run (but full) The success of Heathrow is crucial

21 Capacity where it is most needed Simple and quick and cost effective Significantly improves the noise climate Minimises land take and impact on local communities Heathrow Hub

22 I.Northerly runway extended to approx 6,600m II.A link to the nearby mainline railway and Crossrail III.Car parking, reception area and possibly a terminal co-located with the station IV.Realignment or bridging of M25 Four Individual concepts moulded into one plan

23

24 1.Simple and quick 2.Cost effective using private capital 3.No village communities destroyed 4.Relatively small number of residences lost 5.Integrated ground transportation solution 6.Early morning noise reduction 7.Periods of respite still possible Benefits

25 1.Global - Aviation industry can grow within Government limits 2.Local – Much smaller land take and lower impact on areas of special protection – Improves air quality by spreading NOX emissions – Improves the noise climate compared to today Environment

26 Noise is a crucial consideration

27

28 Modern runway approach

29 We can improve the noise climate NOW 1.Inset thresholds of 27L & 27R 2.Measure arrival noise with penalties for poor performance 3.Lower landing gear with maximum 7 miles to touch down 4.Change continuous descents to constant rate descents with a minimum of 1000 ft/min 5.Lower take-off noise limit 6.10 mile arc on radar screens

30 1.Precise arrival paths and offset centre lines 2.Respite achieved by regular changes to arrival routings 3.Whole day alternation possible for some communities 4.Reduced noise by better approach drag management 5.Two stage steeper approaches We can improve the noise climate SOON

31 1.No new communities need to be affected 2.Deep landings possible particularly in the sensitive early morning period 3.Respite can be provided. e.g. – By alternating curved approaches – By alternating centre lines – By restricting capacity at certain times – By segregating heavy/light traffic With the Heathrow Hub

32 Modern runway approach

33 Could be used to provide further capacity Could be used to eliminate Night Flights Would permit deeper landings on both runways and reduce noise levels at certain times Could provide spare capacity to improve resilience Just a thought… A short extension to 27L

34 Capacity where it is most needed Simple and quick and cost effective Significantly improves the noise climate Minimises land take and impact on local communities Summary

36 Björn Kjos Chief Executive, Norwegian Air Shuttle

37 Europe’s best low-cost airline Low-cost longhaul will revolutionize the travel- and tourism industry Bjørn Kjos, CEO

38 From bases in NORWAY From bases in SWEDEN DENMARK FINLAND From the UK base From bases in SPAIN From bases in the USA & THAILAND

39 Europe’s best low-cost airline Norwegian a major player at London Gatwick Established crew base in 2013 90 pilots and 170 cabin crew members 4 aircraft based at LGW today/6 from summer 2014 320 weekly flights and 25 routes operating to and from LGW today 375 weekly flights to and 35 routes operating from LGW in summer 2014 Will carry more than 3 million passengers in 2014

40 Europe’s best low-cost airline Why Gatwick?

41 Europe’s best low-cost airline The start of a LCC revolution– many more carriers will follow 41

42 Europe’s best low-cost airline Norwegian becomes the first “global” airline 42

43 Europe’s best low-cost airline It (Chinese tourism) might be the biggest. phenomenon to hit the global travel industry since the invention of commercial flight – “ The competition will be global 43

44 Europe’s best low-cost airline Europe’s best low-cost airline Thank you very much for your attention!

48 Nelson Ogunshakin ACE Chief Executive & NIPSEF Industry Co-Chair

49 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: Achieving cross-party agreement and delivery Dr Nelson Ogunshakin OBE ACE Chief Executive Officer & NIPSEF – Industry Co-Chair

50 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: Introduction NIPSEF Strategic Position The need for Cross-Political Party Support NIP, Airports & Airports Commission NIPSEF Role to secure – Cross Party & Effective Delivery

51 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: NIPSEF Strategic Membership Composition NIPSEF forum Comprises of Approximately 60 key decision makers/CEOs Co-Chair – Government: Danny Alexander MP Co- Chair – Industry; Dr Nelson Ogunshakin OBE Representatives from: Infrastructure asset owners, asset managers and regulators Infrastructure investment and advisory community Infrastructure delivery supply chain Business end users of infrastructure Objective: Delivery of the National Infrastructure Plan Through dialogue with Government & Industry

52 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: The Need for cross-party agreement and delivery Two Key Strategic Reasons: Provide Confidence and Certainty in the Market Improve Efficiency

53 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: The need for cross party support Provide confidence and certainty To international investors who can help finance infrastructure improvements To reduce the risk premium (associated with political uncertainty) charged by financiers To consumers and the general public as to the action that will be taken, and how externalities will be mitigated To industry, allowing it to develop and nurture the skills required to deliver new capacity That the UK will continue to be a key strategic aviation hub

54 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: The need for cross party support Improving efficiency Allow the market to account for aviation investments within their business plans and investment profiles Allow the construction sector to design and plan whole life solutions Allow the construction sector to invest in delivery tools that reduce the long term costs of delivery Allow government to develop future policies with certainty, as international trade will develops

55 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: NIP, Airports, Airports Commission As the main document for guiding investment into UK Infrastructure, the proposed way forward for aviation will need to be built into NIP Aviation within NIP currently only covers specific investments at airports, such as terminals, runway extensions etc. but provides no context for wider aviation policy leaving a policy gap The NIP should provides all parties with a tool for planning and delivering investment Need to engage HMT / IUK and DfT etc. in the final report Publication of the Airports Commission’s final report - Summer 2015

56 @ACEImpact Join us on Twitter: NIPSEF - cross party support & Delivery Government can use resources such as NIPSEF to reinforce the need for investment, and bolster cross party support Improve the extent to which aviation stakeholders are active members within NIPSEF, to improve feedback to government Industry is happy to aid government in achieving not only cross party but also public support for investment Delivery Model options: ODA Cross Rail HS2 ?
