In this work, we split the arriving air traffic into different clusters, for which we analyse the horizontal and vertical flight efficiency and relate it to the additional fuel burn. In addition, we study the impact of different factors, such as weather and traffic intensity. We suggest that such a targeted per-flow analysis helps to understand the sources of fuel inefficiencies within TMA.
