A computer-implemented method of optimising one or more airspace blocks within an airspace. The method comprises receiving the initial spatial coordinates and the initial temporal coordinates of one or more initial airspace blocks within the airspace; receiving one or more pairs of waypoints within the airspace; and receiving or calculating an initial flight path between each pair of waypoints. The method further comprises iteratively optimising the spatial coordinates and the temporal coordinates of the one or more airspace blocks by iteratively modifying the spatial coordinates and the temporal coordinates of the one or more airspace blocks, calculating corresponding modified flight paths between each of the pairs of waypoints where the modified flight paths are in compliance with the availability of the modified airspace blocks, and for each iteration calculating the modified total objective variable.
