The world’s air transport is facing unprecedented challenges and undergoing tectonic changes. The COVID-19 pandemic has seriously affected all air transport. The closure of Russia’s vast airspace has had a significant impact on the balance of local markets. Demand for the services of South Eurasia carriers will grow, which will lead to changes in route and fleet planning and will require a revision of the technical strategy.

Our Associate Partner & Head of Solution Group Maintenance and Engineering Axel Schauenburg will be speaking  at the conference "Airbus A380 reactivation and it´s challenges". 

Lufthansa Consulting´s Head of Market CIS and Baltic States Stanislav Solomko, Permanent Representative CIS Askhat Torshin and Business Analyst Vanessa Schäfer will also attend this event.

On 4 April 2023, Lufthansa Consulting, with the support of the Civil Aviation Administration of Kazakhstan, held a seminar on "Airport Master Plan Development" in Astana, Kazakhstan.

As of March 1, 2023, master planning for international airports has become mandatory in Kazakhstan.

The seminar was aimed at airport operators in Kazakhstan and focused on the new requirements for airport development plans in the country in accordance with international standards and Lufthansa Consulting's recommended approach to airport master planning.

Through interactive discussions and knowledge sharing with industry experts, seminar participants learned about the latest trends in airport planning and design and gained insight into how to create a comprehensive airport master plan that meets international standards.

The seminar provided participants with an opportunity to acquire new skills and knowledge for developing airport master plans that promote sustainable development of Kazakhstan's aviation industry and meet international standards.

On 20 March, Lufthansa Consulting once again conducted a guest lecture at Cranfield University. In continuation of an annual tradition, the aviation experts have been invited to deliver their "Introduction to Network and Fleet Planning" to Masters students of Cranfield University's M.Sc. course in Air Transport Management.

The lecture covered numerous topics of high relevance to the students. Our Associate Partner Arvind Chandrasekhar, Senior Consultant Wasiq Khurshid and Consultant Ainesh Advani discussed with the students how network planning works within an airline organization, about data sources, passenger demand forecasting, route economics and the steps that go into developing a business case for a route. In addition, the class brought the topic to life through a detailed case study for a new intercontinental route between Asia-Pacific and Europe. With some excellent, probing questions from the class and a robust exchange of ideas, everybody thoroughly enjoyed the session.

“We greatly value our longstanding relationship with Cranfield University and thank Professor Gary Doy for inviting us to speak to his class. It’s always a pleasure to engage with future leaders of our industry,” said Arvind Chandrasekhar after the lecture session.

The postgraduate university has world-class expertise in its sector-leading specialist areas, particularly also in the field of aviation.
