dc.description.abstractA key determinant of the airspace capacity serving a metropolitan area with multiple airports is the extent of interaction between arrival and departure flows between the airports. The airports for some "metroplexes" are geographically located such that under certain wind and weather conditions, there exist conflicts between the flows. This results in excess costs from ground holding for departures and airborne holding for arrivals.
