AB  - Typically major cities (London, New York, Tokyo) are served by several airports effectively creating aMulti-Airport System or Metroplex. The operations of the Metroplex airports are highly dependent on oneanother, which renders their efficient management difficult. This paper proposes a framework for theprioritization of arrival and departure routes in Multi-Airport Systems Terminal Manoeuvring Areas. Theframework consists of three components. The first component presents a new procedure for clustering arrivaland departure flights into dynamic routes based on their temporal and spatial distributions through theidentification of the important traffic flow patterns throughout the day of operations. The second componentis a novel Analytic Hierarchy Process model for the prioritization of the dynamic routes, accounting for a setof quantitative and qualitative characteristics important for Multi-Airport Systems operations. The thirdcomponent is a priority-based model for the facility location of the optimal terminal waypoints (fixes), whichaccounts for the derived priorities of each dynamic route, while meeting the required separation distances.The proposed Analytic Hierarchy Process model characteristics are validated by subject matter experts. Thedeveloped framework is applied to the London Metroplex case study.
