摘要

There's hope for O'Hare. The world's busiest airport can be fixed. It won't be easy, it won't be quick and it certainly won't be cheap, but it can be done. Because Chicago O'Hare International Airport is a major domestic and international hub for two of the planet's largest airlines, delays here impact schedules across North America and, indeed, the world. The turbulent Midwestern weather-thunderstorms in the spring and summer, snow and ice in the winter—makes a bad situation worse, but the underlying problem rests with the layout of the airport itself. All but one of the seven runways on the 7,300-acre airfield intersect, forcing controllers to close an arrivals runway during certain weather conditions—usually high winds but sometimes low visibility—because the weather could preclude use of land-and-hold-short procedures. These closures reduce the airport's capacity by a third. Every study of air traffic delays cites O'Hare as a major factor.
