Improved real-time decision-making capabilities in both civil transport avionics and airline dispatcher workstations are helping to improve commercial aviation operations in many ways. One emerging capability is the automated derivation of alternate flight plans that yield both flight cost savings and smoother workflow. This emerging capability may be complemented with automated trajectory negotiation capabilities. Here we explore such automated trajectory negotiation capabilities, potential benefit mechanisms, and the required tools, procedures, and architectures.
