WELCOME TO REIVON
A Clean Sky Technology Evaluator project.
We aim to investigate to what extent the CO2 emissions of global aviation can be reduced via an optimisation of aircraft size/range and flight network through:
1) splitting long-haul flights into shorter legs;
2) reducing frequencies to the necessary minimum; and a combination of 1 and 2 with related aircraft optimization.
Objectives
– Investigate CO2 savings and possible intermediate stops
– Explore stakeholder impacts: airlines, airports, ANSPs, passengers, manufacturers, airport neighbours

REIVON Main Approach 1A:
Split long-haul flights into shorter legs (intermediate stop operations = ISO)
REIVON Main Approach 1B:
Split long-haul flights into shorter legs (intermediate stop operations = ISO)
REIVON Main Approach 2:
Fly larger & range optimised aircraft with reduced frequencies
