• A dual till price cap regulation in Rome, Milan and Venice airports (i.e. airports with annual<br />

traffic higher than 8 million passengers);<br />

• A hybrid till price cap regulation in the other airports.<br />

Where a dual till approach applies (i.e. Rome, Milan and Venice), aeronautical charges are<br />

dete rmined by taking into account only costs pertaining aeronautical services. In these airports,<br />

revenues from airport's commercial activities are not considered in tariff calculation.<br />

Where a partial single till approach applies (i.e. the other airports), aeronautical charges are<br />

determined by taking into account:<br />

(i) costs pertaining aeronautical services; and<br />

(ii) 50% of commercial margin, calculated as difference between costs and revenues pertaining<br />

commercial activities included in the regulatory till.<br />

The regulatory till does not include all corrunercial activities. Currently, commercial activities<br />

that are included in the regulatory till (i.e. activities that contribute to defray aeronautical<br />

charges) are those activities in which airport may reap benefits form monopoly or locational<br />

rents .<br />

B.10.Malta<br />

The regulatory approach to set aeronautical charges in Malta International airport is a dual till<br />

price cap regulation. Hence, aeronautical charges are determined by taking into account only<br />

costs pertaining aeronautical services. Revenues from airport's commercial activities are not<br />

considered in tariff calculation.<br />

B.11. New Zealand<br />

The regulatory approach to set aeronautical charges in Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington<br />

airports is an ex post regulation (also known as light handed regulation).<br />

Monitored airports are free to set their own charges, and users have recourse to litigation where<br />

they believe charges to be unreasonable. Despite the lack of formal price controls, New Zealand<br />

airports have undergone several reviews since privatization was introduced.<br />

Furthermore, the Government reserves the right to re-introduce explicit price regulation at<br />

airports if it is deemed necessary.<br />
