“Common use” is an operating philosophy that refers to using facilities, services, and infrastructure in a shared manner by multiple airport stakeholders. For instance, airlines, federal agencies, business partners, and concessionaires can incorporate the same systems beyond curbside, check-in, and gate/ramp locations. TRB will host a webinar on Thursday, August 6, 2026 from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM Eastern that will discuss how a broader, holistic perspective on common use can benefit airports and provide guidance for developing, growing, managing, and sustaining a common use program.
This webinar is based on ACRP WebResource 17: Developing a Holistic Airport Common Use Program.
This webinar is sponsored by TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program.
There is no fee to attend this webinar. Registration is required.
A recording will be sent to all registrants after the webinar.
