Arrival Alert Notices
The FAA is taking several proactive steps to address wrong surface events, reduce the potential for pilot confusion and help improve safety in the National Airspace System (NAS).

Why do we need Arrival Alert Notices (AAN)?
To address wrong surface events where an aircraft lines up to or lands on the incorrect runway, taxiway, or airport, the FAA is releasing Arrival Alert Notices (AAN) at several airports with a history of misalignment risk.
Sample Arrival Alert Notice
Arrival Alert Notices (AAN) are graphics visually depicting the approach to a particular airport with a history of misalignment risk, and language describing the misalignment risk. AANs will incorporate new standardized hot spot symbology.

Standardizing Hot Spot Symbology
Additionally, the FAA is standardizing hot spot symbology. Beginning May 19, 2022, the FAA will standardize hot spot symbols to three shapes with two distinct meanings: a circle or ellipse for ground movement hot spots and a cylinder for wrong surface hot spots. AANs will incorporate the new standardized hot spot symbology. Learn more about hot spots and standardization.
