Print Friendly, PDF & Email

After Saarbrücken and Erfurt, Dresden Airport should soon be converted to remote tower operation by German air traffic control. However, the project has been delayed until at least the end of 2025.

The project is now three years behind the original schedule. Regarding the new postponement, DFS explains, among other things, that the retraining of pilots was delayed during the corona pandemic and that they would now be faced with problems in the supply chain. Saarbrücken switched to remote tower operation in 2018 and Erfurt did so in 2022. Dresden would then be the third airport of this kind.
