I've not had chance to fully go through the report but does it cover off how the current terminal capacity will be increased to cope with all the additional flights? I know, from watching movements whilst doing my enthusiast thing, that some flights have to wait a very long time to get onto a stand (up to 45 minutes is not unusual) so the potential for further delays is, surely, quite large.

Presumably additional taxy time from remote runways is built into the schedules - AMS & FRA both can have some very long taxis?
