limit), which is then divided by the total number of terminal passenger.
The setting of the income per terminal passenger is made by airport or set of airports,
i) Lisbon Group (Lisbon, Azores, Madeira and Beja civilian terminal)
ii) Porto
iii) Faro
the concessionaire being free to set the structure and amounts of the fees owed, as along as the limits established
for the Maximum Average Income are observed.
The rates to be applied for monitored activities are not subject to being set by INAC, as they are merely monitored.
Monitored activities may be reclassified as regulated acitivies and vice-versa by decision of the regulator with

In determining the annual Maximum Average Income, mechanisms of adjustment for traffic risk, as well as the
incorporation of the results of a comparative analysis with similar airports in the European Union are projected for
the airports of the “Lisbon Group”, so they can remain competitive.
