Air Navigation Charge

Air Navigation Charge

Structure of Air Navigation Service Charges (ANS):

ANS Charges = En Route Charge + Terminal Charge

Description:

a) MTOW

MTOW is the Maximum Take-off Weight of aircraft in ‘metric ton’ as specified by the factory, rounding up fraction to the next whole number. The calculation of the ANS charges will be based on MTOW which is provided by AEROTHAI.

b) Distance

Distance is the great circle distance travelled within Bangkok FIR in ‘kilometer’, rounding up fraction to the next whole number. For each landing and take-off within Bangkok FIR, 50 kilometers are deducted from the great circle distance. If the great circle distance after being deducted for landing/take-off is less than 250 kilometers, it will be calculated as 250 kilometers (Distance Factor = 1). The calculation of ANS charges will be based on a distance factor which is provided by AEROTHAI.
