This study was initiated by the Los Angeles Department of Airports and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to evaluate the impact on overall airfield delays and travel times associated with alternative commuter aircraft gate locations at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). The study examined airport delays and their causes with and without relocating/rearranging commuter aircraft gates. Since 1985, the FAA has sponsored Airport Capacity Design Teams at airports across the country affected by delay. Representatives from airport operators, air carriers, other airport users, and aviation industry groups work together with FAA representatives to identify and analyze capacity problems at each individual airport and recommend improvements that have the potential for reducing delays. The improvements recommended by the Capacity Teams have emphasized construction of new runways and taxiways, installation of enhanced facilities and equipment, and changes in air traffic control procedures. Typically, these solutions are addressed through established, long-term planning processes.
