🤝 Stronger together – for smoother airport operations. Efficiency, punctuality and stability - this is what partners at airports strive for every single day. And with the #GroundCoordination initiative at #FrankfurtAirport, collaboration is reaching a whole new level in Germany. ✈️ Since summer 2025, DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH Lufthansa, and Fraport AG have launched the first live measures – making operations more proactive, transparent, and resilient, even in irregular situations. Ground Coordination ensures everyone is on the same page and ready to act. A major step forward in cross-company teamwork and operational excellence! 🌍 And the impact goes far beyond Frankfurt. The insights and tools developed through Ground Coordination are designed to benefit airport operations across Europe – creating a more connected and resilient #aviation network.  🪙 Co-funded by the European Union: The DFS activities at #Frankfurt, #Munich, #Stuttgart, #Hamburg, #Düsseldorf, and #Berlin are part of two projects - #BEACON & EXOPAN project - co-funded by the #EuropeanUnion under the overall coordination of the SESAR Deployment Manager, which not only support national implementation but also foster regular knowledge exchange with other European airports and ensure the synchronous market uptake of key technologies and the deployment of the #CommonProject1-functionalities such as Extended AOP and AOP/NOP integration. Together, we’re shaping the future of airport coordination as an important part of the #airtrafficmanagement system across borders. #GroundCoordination #FrankfurtAirport #AirportOperations #SingleEuropeanSky #Collaboration #SESAR #EXOPAN #CLEANATM #CLEANATM2 #SESARdelivers
