AIRPORT PLANNING MANUAL 5.2. TERMINAL OPERATIONS - TURNAROUND STATION This section presents the typical turnaround servicing time at an air terminal. The chart gives typical schedules for servicing the aircraft within a given time. The time of each service in the chart was calculated taking the following into consideration: • Load factor - 100%; • Passenger deplane - 24 pax/min; • Passenger enplane - 16 pax/min; • Baggages checked per passenger - 1,2; • Refuel (fuel quantity) - 80%; • Flow - 290 gpm; • Potable water - 70% to be refilled (56 ); • Galley service FWD and aft sequence - in parallel; • Toilet type - vacuum; • Baggages unloading/loading FWD/aft sequence - in parallel; • Only FWD passenger door to be used to deplane and enplane passengers. Servicing times could be rearranged to suit availability of personnel, aircraft configuration, and degree of servicing required. The data illustrates the general scope and tasks involving airport terminal operations. Airline particular practices and operating experience will result in different sequences and intervals.
