The Single European Sky (SES) is an ambitious initiative launched in 2004 to modernise European air traffic management (ATM), making it safer, more cost-efficient and environmentally friendly. As the technological pillar, SESAR, is harnessing new technologies and accelerated digitalisation to contribute to making SES a reality. SESAR is composed of three phases: definition, development and deployment.

Definition

The European ATM Master Plan is the agreed roadmap that connects ATM research and development activities with deployment scenarios to achieve the performance objectives of the Single European Sky. The Master Plan is regularly updated in close collaboration with stakeholders taking into account evolutions in the aviation landscape.

Development

The SESAR 3 Joint Undertaking (SESAR 3 JU) is an institutionalised European partnership between private and public sector partners set up to accelerate through research and innovation the delivery of the Digital European Sky. It is harnessing, developing and accelerating the take-up of the most cutting-edge technological solutions to manage conventional aircraft, drones, air taxis and vehicles flying at higher altitudes.
