Airport Slot Management demo

What the demo shows

Tracks slot holdings, use against the 80/20 rule and coordinator filings, for slot teams

Every slot series is a ribbon of weeks: filled where it flew, hollow where it did not, outlined where it is still to come, with a dashed 80% line across it. Every night the Usage tracker matches each flight to its slot, finds flights that used a slot under a recovery number, and projects every series to the end of its period. On any series at risk, the Relief finder reads the cause of each unused day in the operations log, tests it against that airport's rule (the FAA's five-day standard, the 2026 staffing notice, the slot guidelines) and builds the case with the METARs, advisories and NOTAMs as evidence. The Filing drafter writes the waiver request, claim or usage report; the Filing checker re-counts it on its own and asks the slot manager about any mismatch. The Season planner checks each change in next season's plan for historic precedence, the Swap & lease analyst proposes a lease instead of a near-empty flight, and the Deadline keeper holds every date. The slot manager reviews, decides and signs; Airport Affairs co-signs waivers and the VP approves swaps and leases.
