 In recent years, airports have increasingly charged significant fees for aviation operations. These fees are often determined based on the type of aircraft and its Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW). When these charges are high, airlines may be reluctant to operate at these airports, leading to fewer options and potentially higher travel costs. Besides these fees, airports also impose various other charges that can further burden airline operations. Concurrently, the global aviation industry has witnessed the rise of low-cost carriers (LCCs) such as Air Arabia, AirAsia, and Tiger Airways. These airlines have redefined air travel by offering the cheapest possible fares while minimizing operational costs. A key factor in their success is the development of low-cost terminals—budget-friendly facilities that are tailored to meet the specific needs of LCCs. Countries that have embraced this trend have developed low-cost terminals to support the unique requirements of budget airlines. A prim

  As frequent air travelers, we've all encountered the nuances of airline baggage policies. Whether it's the dreaded excess weight charges or the struggle to fit everything into our carry-on, managing our luggage can make or break the travel experience. In this post, we'll dive into the ins and outs of airline baggage to help you prepare for your next trip. Checked Baggage: The Cargo Hold The majority of passengers, especially those traveling to the Middle East for work, often bid emotional farewells to their loved ones as they check their bags and head to the gate. The allowance for checked baggage varies by airline, but generally, you're permitted to check one or more bags, with a typical weight limit of around 20-30 kg per bag. It's important to be mindful of the rules and regulations set by the International Aviation Organization when packing your checked luggage. Certain items may be prohibited or restricted, so be sure to familiarize yourself with the

When we think of a country's economic resources, we typically imagine traditional assets like agricultural crops, mineral deposits, and natural resources. However, one often overlooked economic resource is a country's airspace. As per the Chicago Convention on Air Transport signed in 1944, every country has sovereignty over its own airspace. This means that if an aircraft from one country wishes to cross the airspace of another, it must first obtain permission from the country that owns that airspace. In the case of Sri Lanka, the country can generate significant revenue from airlines using its airspace. The Sri Lanka Civil Aviation Authority grants permission for aircraft to traverse the country's airspace, and in return, the airlines must pay fees based on the maximum take-off weight of the plane. The fees are as follows: MTOW: 5,000 Kg to 90,000 kg - $100 MTOW: 90,000 Kg to 175,000 Kg - $150 MTOW: 175,000 Kg to 260,000 Kg - $200 MTOW:
