I am a versatile city planner and ready to get a start in business. I am mostly interested in airport oriented development of urban areas. I have a master's degree in urban design and I have written a thesis which mainly focuses on the design criteria of Airport City and Aerotropolis concepts. I would like to develop myself in such sectors and businesses; airport planning, airport management, airport businesses, airport oriented development, transportation planning, design of transportation modes, interconnection of different transportation modes, etc. Phone: +905416392840

In the past, coastal towns with adequate harbors grew and expanded quickly. In modern times, similar prospects apply to cities with airports which provide competitive advantages for regional and urban development. In addition to being a complex system of facilities, airports are significant stimulators for economic activities in its catchment area. In the last thirty years or so, airports have become clusters of not only transportation-related operational services but also commercial and business activities. Accordingly, airports have grown into complex and multi-faced mega structures, offering space for longer runways and larger terminals, and accommodating a growing number of functions that have nothing related with aviation. Hence, Aerotropolis defined by Prof. Dr. Kasarda is regarded as an urban cluster with similar features to the traditional metropolitan structure. In its core, Airport City is located which fu...

In the last thirty years or so, airports have become clusters of not only transportation-related operational services but also commercial and business activities (Güller Güller et al., 2003). In aerotropolis setting, an airport and its close environment are closely related, as they have strong relationships, therefore influence each other significantly. Although numerous design guidelines related to operational services in and around airports have been developed, land use planning and design guidelines are rarely discussed. This paper focuses on the principles and relationships for land use planning and design of airports and their environs. In parallel to the expansion prospects of Sabiha Gökçen Airport in Istanbul where Third Airport is under construction due to the increased traffic in the 2000s and over-capacity reached at Istanbul Atatürk Airport on the European side, we explore planning and design framework of 4 different airport city cases.

It is aimed to underline current design framework of Airport Cities which is found missing in terms of academic studies. In this context, the Airport City model clarified, and selected cases have been evaluated under certain design principles in order to have an output about design criteria of the Airport City development. The research concludes with inferences regarding existing design guidelines of certain Airport City cases.

Airports are transforming themselves into ‘Airport Cities’ and in the process they are having a significant impact on local and regional economies. Airports are seeking to maximize non-aeronautical income from a range of activities including development industry, warehousing, hospitality, office buildings, accommodation and residential. This report highlights airports around the world that are becoming ‘Airport Cities’ and aerotropolises and reflects what this means for Amsterdam Schiphol International Airport in terms of strategic spatial planning.

Airports are seeking to maximize non-aeronautical income from a range of activities including development industry, warehousing, hospitality, office buildings, accommodation, residential and in the case of Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, the refinement of natural gas.
Airport system planning is a planning effort that considers a collection of airports, either on a local, state, regional, or national level, expected to complement each other as part of a coordinated air transportation system. Through airport system planning, the objectives of individual airports are set in accordance with the needs of the community by, for example, setting the mission of each airport to serve certain segments of the demand for aviation, such as targeting one airport in a region to handle international commercial air travelers and another airport to handle primarily smaller general aviation aircraft operations. Airport system planning should be a part of an Airport City model to make entire airport work correctly.
