• A range of objectives may lead a government to consider privatization as an option. As some objectives may conflict, the
government’s specific policy objectives and their relative weighting should guide the choice of privatization model.
GOVERNMENTS SHOULD ENSURE A CLEAR AND CONSISTENT LEGAL FRAMEWORK EXISTS PRIOR TO
PRIVATIZATION
• Bidding processes should be clearly defined, transparent and competitive, and allow government and private investors to exchange
information to provide certainty on the project’s planning, execution and economic sustainability. The legal framework and any
economic regulation should be defined before privatization, to ensure cost recovery and a reasonable return on investment.
• Governments should ensure an appropriate level of communication exists with key stakeholders—including aviation stakeholders,
unions and economic development and tourism authorities—about the rationale underlying the privatization process.
• Governments should ensure they comply with all relevant obligations of States specified in the Chicago Convention and its
Annexes and that ICAO’s policies and key principles are observed.
• While financial pressures on governments often make them keen to privatize, they should consider the critical role airports
and aviation play in connecting any region to the global economy. The catalytic effects of improved connectivity on a region’s
trade, tourism, foreign investment and locational decisions have significant impacts on the national economy. Governments
should consider privatizing regional networks of airports and seek a balance between short-term returns and longer-term, wider
economic benefits.
• Governments need to consider incentives to attract potential national and foreign investors and provide the clarity investors
need on the issues they face.
• Investors expect a reasonable return to incentivize future investments in airport facilities and operations. They should be able
to run an airport as a business and generate returns on investment from both its aeronautical and its commercial revenues.
• Concessionaires need flexibility regarding both the nature and the timing of capital expenditures to adapt better to market
demand and economic challenges.
• Applying the widely used dual or hybrid till regime induces cost efficiencies and innovations in the airport’s commercial business.
• The complexity of covering the high costs small airports face because of their low throughput makes it advisable when
privatizing an airport network to ensure cross-financing among airports.
• There is an appropriate lifespan for each form of privatization. A short term may be appropriate for a management concession
because the operator makes no investment. When seeking a specific investment by means of a BOT model, the span should
be sufficient to recover the investment and produce a reasonable return on capital. When the objective is for the private sector
to operate, maintain and invest over a long period, a much longer-term agreement is necessary.

subject to economic regulation following privatization.

Privatization objectives:
• Build key infrastructure at the airport;
• Innovation in design and operation of the new
terminal.
Key features:
• Scope: upgrading, operating and maintaining the
three airports in the Republic of the Congo;
• 25-year concession contract;
• Concession fee is paid every three months and is
based on a percentage of revenue;
• An additional fixed fee is paid to the government
every six months.
Privatization objectives:
• Improve operational efficiency by using
international experience;
• Improve operational standards, including security
and level of service;
• Further develop the airports, including their non-
aeronautical activities.
1) TRAFFIC
Brazzaville airport achieved strong traffic growth (12.3% compound annual growth) until 2016. That year
traffic fell by 25% and it fell by another 17% in 2017, in part because of the region’s ties to the petrochemical
industry, which slowed its activities as a result of falling oil prices. Due to this unforeseen drop in traffic,
investment in a new cargo facility was delayed, with government agreement. At Pointe Noire, traffic had
grown until 2015 but fell 22% in 2016.

Capital investments totalling approximately US$25 million were made between 2011 and 2016, mainly
towards improvements at Pointe Noire. Areas of focus included the reorganization and modernization of
the airport cargo areas, improving utilities, enhancing apron capacity and resurfacing the runway (now
complete). With the government’s approval, the operator is now holding off on investment because of the
massive loss of traffic. The investment program will resume when the economy recovers.

Traffic has grown 14% annually on average since privatization, compared with 7.4% a year in the 23 years

The operator is aggressively marketing the airport in overseas markets such as China, South Korea, Japan
and North America. In 2017, six new airlines started service to Cebu, offering domestic and international
services. The operator is also actively engaged with the tourism industry to promote Cebu as a destination.

3) AIRPORT CHARGES
The passenger terminal charge prior to the start
of the concession agreement was PHP 200
per person for domestic flights and PHP 550
for international flights. When the concession
agreement was signed, charges increased to PHP
300 and PHP 750 for domestic and international,
respectively. The increases in charges are tied to
the investments in the new terminals and other
improvements at the airport. Once Terminal 2
is completed, the domestic and international
charges can be raised by PHP 41 and PHP 63
respectively.
