Abstract
This paper examines the possibilities for measuring performance of current Air Navigation Services Providers (ANSPs) in Europe. ANSPs are in the process of operational integration into functional air blocks (FABs) tracking direction towards Single European Sky goals, but there are a lot of obstacles and air traffic management is still organized in a fragmented way. This is a reason for comparing national ANSPs. A Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is applied as a tool for performance measurement. Effectiveness of 36 units of ANS system is measured and the limitations and benefits of this kind of performance model are presented.
