The development of trajectory-based operations and the rolling network plan in European air traffic management implies a move towards more collaborative, strategic flight planning. This opens up possibility for inclusion additional information collaborative decision-making process. With that mind, we define indicator economic risk elements (e.g., sectors or airports) as expected costs impose on...
