- The International Airports Council (ACI) has called on governments to incorporate airport capacity increases into their long‑term economic and infrastructure plans, stressing that growth in the sector requires more than new construction.
- ACI World highlighted that modernising slot allocation policies and market access is essential because slot management now represents a public‑interest decision, and updated regulatory frameworks can help prevent capacity crises while supporting tourism expansion and attracting investment in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Why it matters
Updated slot rules could enable airlines to access more capacity, improve flight scheduling and boost tourism‑related revenue for airports in the region.
