CONSTRAINT #10 activeAirport
Landing Slot Allocation Scarcity
Mission feasibility is compromised when high-density or event-driven airports deny landing slots, preventing access to the primary destination.
Decision Question
Is a landing slot secured for the intended arrival window, or will the aircraft be denied entry?
