proposed the consideration of “Economies of Scale” where “reductions in unit cost as the size of a facility and the usage levels of other inputs increase is realized.” (Sheffrin, 2003). Nevertheless, because of Diseconomies of Scale, the situation existed “where economies of scale no longer function for a firm. Rather than experiencing continued decreasing costs per increase in output, firms see an increase in marginal cost when output is increased” (Angus, 1999). In this way, the growth of the business

minimal marginal mitigation costs. For this purpose consecutively those flights trajectories options are selected which offer the highest mitigation potential taking into account five archetypical weather patterns in NAFC, and traffic samples in eastbound and westbound both direction. Using a concept of 4-dimensional climate cost functions integrated into a simulation system for operational planning (SAAM), we identified climateoptimal trajectories, by generating Pareto fronts from marginal costs
