Annual Report 2015

→ 114 | Flughafen Berlin Brandenburg GmbH C.2 Additional Non-Aviation revenues Increased passenger volume from international traffic featuring a clientele of greater spending power offers the chance to increase non-aviation revenues and to profit from the use of larger retail and restaurant facilities in the future. Moreover, the build-up of handing capacities will create additional retail trade and restaurant areas that will lead to rising revenues. The increase in the size of these areas at BER in particular will produce a significant rise in income in these segments. An increase in revenues is expected as early as 2016 in the parking segment. One point is that the parking charges will be increased for the periods of high demand; another is that additional incentives for parking (including the possibility of advance reservations) will be given for the periods when demand is low. C.3 Fiscal opportunities Favourable development in interest rates may be one of the fiscal opportunities for FBB; for instance, the low interest rates at the moment lead to a reduction in the financing costs, and these rates can be secured for the long term by the planned agreement of fixed-interest loans. C.4 Optimised organisational structure and processes The new organisational structure of FBB offers the opportunity to design procedures and processes more efficiently so that cost advantages can be exploited that airport operations as well as construction activities can be optimised. C.5 General opportunities With regard to regulatory measures, there is a chance that the German government’s new air traffic concept will have positive effects on the aviation business.
