Since the aviation industry is booming, airports around the globe are competing for a share in this highly-profitable industry. The demand for larger, passenger-friendly airports with shorter queues is steadily increasing. Airlines are slowly gravitating away from larger capacity aircraft to smaller capacity which is proving to be more profitable and accepted by the public. Although gate occupancy times decrease with smaller fleets, the demand for and efficient airfield design, reduced runway occupancy times, and shorter queues in processors are on the rise. That means airports need to be ready to deal with the surge in demand.
