Why Do Some Airports Have Night Flight Curfews?

Alright - we know the answer to the title of this video is pretty obvious. In fact, you’re probably already typing in the answer as a comment before you’ve watched the first five seconds of this video! But bear with us as we examine night curfews a little more closely and how they are setup at some airports.

    I grew up and now live close to Manchester Airport. I love the sound of planes landing or taking off, especially at night. It's reassuring and reminds me of my childhood when I used to be able to recognise the Viscounts, Vanguards and DC3 Dakotas passing over at night before I went to sleep.

    I wonder which came first the airport or the residences. Often the airport is placed outside of town as in the past jets were even louder. However, developers and town planners routinely allow for homes to be built ever nearer the otherwise removed airport. In that case people knew they were moving near an airport (or a steel mill or what ever) I'm not sure they have a position, but in the converse where the homes were there before the airport was constructed I feel that it should not be allowed anymore than some other disruptive industry would not be allowed in such a place.

    At LAX, between midnight and 6am (or somewhere around those times), takeoffs will still go towards the ocean/westbound but use the south runways, while landings will use the north runway but switch to an eastbound approach so they are over the ocean and don't disturb residents late at night. Of course, they can only do this if the winds are calm (but usually the sea breeze is active during the day).

    LAX, BUR, LGB, & SNA have night flight curfews. The interesting one is Long Beach Ca, curfew is from 9pm -5am I believe. When Jet Blue was still there word around the campfire was Jet Blue still had departures until midnight so they paid a fine daily. Probably why they left LGB all together. At SNA planes can't takeoff using full power until a certain height is achieved. LAX also has a clause saying that a airplane can't make a turn until over the ocean...

    Bogota's system for night ops is interesting. The airport is located on the western side of the city , with rural areas to the west and heavily populated neighborhoods to the north, south and east. between midnight and 6:00 runway 31R is used for all departures and 13R is used for all arrivals, As long as winds are below the maximum tailwind for the runways/aircraft. This is done to avoid having planes fly over the city at night A couple of villages are close to the approach path for 13R, But given the low power setting for landings, it's prefeable than having departing aircraft During the day, Runways 13L and 13R are used for landing and departures unless the tailwind limit is exceeded due to them having an ILS and a straight-in approach. Runways 31L and 31R are only used during the day if there is a lot of westerly wind

    I lived for 12 years in Hounslow, circa 3 miles from from Heathrow until my partner's death last year after which I moved to Hertfordshire. The aircraft passed directly over our house, lowering their undercarriage. Even with Heathrow funded noise insulation measures, including commercial grade (extra-thick) glazing, we were woken every night, sometimes more than once by night flights. It's not a joke; sleep deprivation, e.g. regular shift work, is recognised by the WHO as carcinogenic. Those 'old codgers', e.g. HACAN, who object to unfettered airport growth do what they do for good reason. They are not fools worthy of ridicule. On another subject, air pollution, I was diagnosed last year as asthmatic. I went back to visit the area just this weekend and again, for the first time in a year was aware of my throat and sinuses irritating in response to the pollution in the air. I used to have to live with that all the time. Please be aware that 'One man's meat is another man's poison' to use an old catchphrase.

I personally do not live near an airport but I do live near train tracks and so we often hear the sound of the horn every time a train came through. At first it was annoying but then you get used to it. I do believe that the same concept wouldd apply here as well.

    makes you wonder that the engineers behind the engines (GE, Rolls-Royce, etc.) take everything into account. not only to decrease the sound inside the cabin, but also for those airport with restrictions, residential comfort and the penalties for the noise produced. perhaps in time, those curfews will be lifted and all airports can and will be open 24/7....but that's a long way away.

    "Could you tolerate living near an airport" I do live fairly near a major international airport but one of the "noise restrictions" at that airport has the aircraft making most of their noise where humans won't hear it. Approach and climb-out are over a large river, part of which is surrounded by wetlands and other spaces that don't have any homes on them... so there aren't that many people who can easily hear the flying airliners from their homes.

    I live near a small airport and the reason there aren't any planes taking off or landing at night doesn't have anything to do with noise. I guess it is all about safety and demand: There's not need to fly in night time from or to our city, but also this isn't like an international airport with too many departures or arrivals.

    As an adult, I willingly purchased homes next to Interstates on three occasions. I like having some degree of noise, even when living in the middle of nowhere. That said, the closest I've lived to an airport was 10 miles and usually, I'm around 50 miles from one. I probably wouldn't mind being on the approach to one, but not next door.
