Quarterly & annual operations reports

Q2 2024

• In Q2 2024, flight operations were up by 1.5% compared to Q2 2023.
• Runway configurations are used that can best accommodate traffic conditions. This can change as traffic levels and operations change. In Q2 2024 we saw a decrease in Dual operations but an increase in L1D1 and Triple operations compared to Q2 2023. This could be due to efficiencies gained in the L1D1 operations where Dual/Triple operations aren’t required until traffic levels are at the highest peaks.

• Factors that influence runway selection include wind, weather and surface conditions, runway availability, time of day, traffic levels, and operational efficiency. These factors vary, and therefore, so do runway configurations. However, as wind directions in the region is predominantly from the west or the east, the majority of Pearson’s runway configurations involve the east/west runways. The north/south runways are used when the weather necessitates it or to accommodate airfield work.
• In Q2 2024, 98% of operations used the east-west runways compared to 97% east-west operations in Q2 2023.
