    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are disclosed for determining a holding pattern. An example method includes receiving an estimated time of clearance and holding pattern instructions for an aircraft chartered for holding, receiving flight information and aircraft state information associated with the aircraft, deriving a holding time estimate from the estimated time of clearance, the flight information and aircraft state information, and computing holding pattern parameters placing the aircraft on a holding inbound segment prior to the estimated time of clearance based at least in part on the holding time estimate. The method further includes transmitting the holding pattern parameters to a computing device.
