Abstract

Air Traffic Flow and Capacity Management (ATFCM) aims to balance traffic demand and sector capacity while maintaining safety and network performance. When tactical measures such as rerouting or sector reconfiguration are insufficient to meet demand, ground regulations are imposed as a last resort, generating delays. As an alternative capacity-on-demand mechanism, Clusterized Aircraft Early Handover (CAEHO) enables the early transfer of clustered aircraft near sector boundaries to adjacent sectors with available capacity.
