The author discussed forecasting methodology at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. She indicated that forecasts are prepared to meet two pragmatic objectives: financial planning and facility planning. She noted that the substantial modernization under way at the three major New York-New Jersey area airports attests to the need for accuracy and realism in forecasts of airport revenue, costs, and capital programs. She also noted that both airside and landside planning depend on aviation activity forecasts. She indicated that the Port Authority uses a blend of econometric and demographic approaches, and that alternative scenarios have also been helpful in understanding the influence of key assumptions more clearly. She discussed new hubbing forecast methods as well as several new short-term forecasting approaches under study. She stated that the Port Authority is required to make long term forecasts to the year 2050.
