Abstract
Rising air travel demand, airport capacity issues, and schedule disruptions form part of the challenges that aviation stakeholders have to face in the upcoming decades. Minimizing ground times is one of their recent objectives as extended ground times induce operational, economic, and environmental risks. The flow of ground operations has a high impact on the overall air transportation system. Therefore, the impact and risks of extended ground times in passenger air transport were thoroughly compared, weighed, and compared based on pre-selected individual literature sources. Several studies deliver solution approaches to reduce ground times. The turnaround especially is a key element of any flight operation and impacts the competitive advantage of airlines and airports. Next to infrastructural changes, technological advancements, and operational performance improvements, the cooperation of stakeholders is a measure to shorten ground times. Special focus lies on the improvement of boarding procedures. They are essential for passenger air transport and reducing ground times.
