Respite Periods
Respite periods are times of reduced aircraft activity and are used to provide breaks from aircraft noise and the interruptions, disturbances and reduced productivity it can cause in a person’s daily life.
The tool below shows the projected average daily jet aircraft respite periods in 2039, based on the number of whole clock hours (e.g. 9.00am to 10.00am) when there are no aircraft movements at all on a particular flight path, and reporting these as a percentage of the sum of all clock hours in the period in question. This figure shows respite during three discrete periods:
- Morning – 6.00am to 7.00am
- Daytime – 7.00am to 8.00pm
- Evening – 8.00pm to 11.00pm
Hover over each of the flight paths to see the percentage of respite periods for each of the jet aircraft flight paths.
