1 .1 .1 GENERAL PRESENTATION

1.1.1.1 Missions Groupe ADP is an airport operator whose know-how spanned a network of 27 airports at 31 December 2022 with: ◆ the three main airports in the Paris region (Paris-Charles de Gaulle, Paris-Orly and Paris-Le Bourget), owned and operated by Aéroports de Paris, are the “gateway” to France; Aéroports de Paris owns and operates 10 civil airfields for general aviation located in the Île-de-France region and operates the Issy-les-Moulineaux heliport, owned by the City of Paris; ◆ the 14 1 airports operated directly by TAV Airports, a Group held at 46.12% by Aéroports de Paris 2 ; ◆ the 4 3 airports operated directly by GMR Airports, a group 49% owned by Aéroports de Paris; ◆ the 6 4 airports across Europe, the Middle East, Africa, the Indian Ocean and South America, in which ADP International, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aéroports de Paris, has equity investments in the airport management companies. Present at all stages of the passenger and goods journey, the airport operator’s mission is to optimise the various flows that take place within the airport, namely the flows of aircraft in the aeronautical areas, of passengers in the terminals and through the various screening filters, of baggage and freight and the flows relating to supply between the city-side area and the aircraft. It must also ensure the interface between the various parties to which it provides services and facilities. For this: ◆ it designs and organises the construction of airport infrastructure and access; ◆ it provides airlines and other professional service providers with infrastructure and facilities such as check-in counters, boarding areas, baggage carousels, aircraft parking areas, offices and lounges, which are allocated to users throughout the day. Aéroports de Paris also supplies airlines with services such as telecommunications, power, utilities and waste treatment; ◆ it decides on the location and leases commercial service spaces, in particular shops, bars and restaurants. It operates a certain number of these spaces through subsidiaries; ◆ it welcomes and informs passengers, facilitates traffic and ensures that services are available to enhance their comfort such as car parks, hotels, telecom services, and personalised reception;

◆ it carries out, under the control of government authorities, air transport security measures. Groupe ADP’s assignments in Paris and in its locations abroad are carried out within an operating framework defined by the local authorities or the concession granting authorities (specifications, concession contracts). 1.1.1.2 Ecosystem players Airlines and their ground handling assistance services The airport operator’s responsibility toward passengers ends when the passenger is placed under the airline’s responsibility. In practice, this is from the beginning of the boarding procedure to the end of the passenger disembarkation procedure. Airlines are also responsible for all aircraft loading and unloading procedures. They also rely on service providers, who are known as ground handling companies. Airlines may cooperate with each other through different arrangements, such as interline agreements that enable the point-to-point handling of connecting passengers, or the sharing of codes that allow an airline to sell tickets for a flight operated by a partner. Although alliances (SkyTeam, Star Alliance and Oneworld) are the preferred framework for cooperation between intercontinental carriers, smaller scale partnerships are developing. These airlines serve different customer segments with a differentiated service offering and a portfolio of destinations that are interconnected through their own network (their hubs) or those of other airlines. Although all carriers expect an excellent quality of ground service from the airport operator, if they are members of an alliance they usually also want access to facilities, products and services that make connections easier, to be brought together under one roof (in the same terminal) and to be able to share facilities. In the medium-haul point-to-point market, the model inspired by low-cost airlines is also starting to dominate, including within traditional airlines. The main focus is on reducing operating costs in order to offer customers the lowest prices. To this end, companies mainly expect the airport manager to develop state of the art facilities that are easy to operate as well as coordination methods that guarantee flight punctuality. Charter airlines are characterised by their non-regular service offering. They are chartered by Tour Operators to whom they offer a seat allocation. They generally expect the airport operator to provide them with functional facilities and simple ground handling procedures.
