A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing missed approaches to runways. In one advantageous embodiment, an event requiring missing an approach to a runway by an aircraft is monitored for, while the movement of the aircraft along a route is being controlled by a flight management system. Responsive to detecting the event, a location of the aircraft is identified to form an identified location. The identified location of the aircraft is compared to a plurality of waypoints for a plurality of missed approach routes to identify an active waypoint in the plurality of waypoints closest to the aircraft to form an identified waypoint. A missed approach route from the plurality of missed approach routes associated with the identified waypoint is executed for the aircraft.
