To propose operational strategies to control arrival traffic efficiently, the Gt/GI/st+GI time-varying queueing model, which enables detailed analysis of time-dependent factors, is applied to the actual arrival flow in Japan. The waiting time of entering aircraft in different arrival scenarios is calculated, focusing on the time-varying capacity of airspace and the flight time distribution.
