Flight Dispatcher Days 2025 will take place in two segments:
Flight Dispatcher Days: 18-19 March 2025
A two-day, in-person event focused on Network Manager tools and Aircraft Operator demonstrations. This event will bring together flight dispatchers to discuss key topics such as achieving operational efficiency, handling rejections, reducing delays, advanced rerouting strategies, and enhancing communication with the Network Manager Operations Centre (NMOC). The event will feature:
- Day 1 (18 March): A deep dive into NM tools and how they can be applied to improve operational efficiency
- Day 2 (19 March): A showcase of how Aircraft Operators are achieving excellence through practical demonstrations and discussions.
Throughout these days, participants can expect keynote addresses, engaging Q&A sessions and ample networking opportunities.
FF-ICE Day: 20 March 2025
FF-ICE is an ICAO concept, meaning Flight & Flow Information for a Collaborative Environment, and is mandated to replace ICAO Flight Plan 2012 for IFR flights in the EU, Norway and Switzerland, by the end of 2025. This one-day hybrid event will focus on the implementation of FF-ICE, with particular attention to the challenges and solutions associated with the new flight plan format. It is aimed at flight dispatchers as well as other operational and technical personnel from AOs. Participants will have the chance to engage in practical demonstrations and explore how Aircraft Operators are adapting to the new standards.
Exhibition
An exhibition will run in parallel to the event, showcasing the latest NM tools and projects. This is a great opportunity to see firsthand the practical applications of these technologies.
