market positioning and strategies, understanding airlines, Route and
airline target setting and designing a target campaign plan along

Forecasting a one and a half day masterclass discussing; catchment
area elasticity and penetration, market share, frequency share
analysis, quality of service analysis, market stimulation and more
which will take place 21-22 August 2014.

Vladimir Kamynin, Director for Aviation Business Development for
Airports of Regions said: "ASM's training courses give a unique
opportunity to gain valuable knowledge on the development of the
route network, analytics and forecasting. We are delighted that
International Airport Koltsovo, Ekaterinburg, Russia, has been chosen
as this year's host for ASM's CIS based training. This follows
airport's significant experience of being a host of international
conferences and a magnet for the industry professionals."

ASM has over 15 years experience in running the industry's most
recognised and highly regarded route development training programmes
for airports and organisations interested in making route development
happen. Both courses are aimed at top and middle management route
development professionals from the region and prove to be popular
with 8 delegates registered already.

David Stroud, Managing Director, ASM commented: "Russia and CIS
overall is a very fast developing market with aviation growth
reaching double digits. However, the growth will not be a given for
everyone and as the market liberalises, airport will need to compete
hard to achieve success. We are pleased and excited to run both
unique training courses in the CIS region again this year.
Ekaterinburg Airport, as a previous Routes CIS Host and our
longstanding partner, is the ideal host for this training."
