Today, the European airspace is facing multiple capacity constraints, which are regulating the demand during busy traffic periods of the day. These capacity limits typically cause inefficiencies in flight and in airport ground handling, which are expecting to increase, because according to current market forecasts, passenger air traffic demand will continue to grow between 4.5 percent [1] and 4.8 percent annually [2]. To better manage rare airspace capacity, free routing performance based navigation and harmonized airspace structures are seen as efficient mitigation measures according to the Single European Sky ATM Research (SESAR) and the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) programs. However, a growing public awareness and a better understanding of the anthropogenic environmental impact necessitates further functions for flight planing and execution, beside today’s minimum fuel and time objectives. In this paper we present a trajectory calculation model capable of exploiting the 3D free route optimization potential while considering these divergent targets, especially the costs of condensation trails depending on the time of the day. The model was implemented in the simulation environment TOMATO for a case study, which optimized the European’s flight intentions for an entire day based on departure airport, arrival airport and departure time on July 2016. The resulting trajectories are evaluated against the number of separation infringements. The case study shows that this anticipated air traffic demand already stresses the free route capacity when considering the required airline efficiency, ecological compatibility and safety standards. keywords: Contrails, Air Traffic Simulation, Trajectory Optimization, Trajectory Assessment
