• Capacity Enhancement before new ATC System • CDM/ATFM Operations • Initiatives after new ATC System

– AIDC Automated Aircraft Handoff with neighboring FIRs – Automatic aircraft coordination within Bangkok FIR – SSR Mode S and ADS-B Equipage requirement (TBD) – More “flexible” sector configurations

• Potential for more upper airspace sectors

– Further enhanced cross-border ATFM collaboration in accordance to Network Operations principle
