520 8 Airlines are buffeted by fluctuating political and
economic landscapes, ever-changing competition, technology
developments, globalization, increasing deregulation and
evolving customer requirements. As a consequence all
sectors of the air transport industry are in a constant
state of flux. The principle aim of this book is to review
current trends in the airline industry and its related
suppliers, thereby providing an insight into the forces
that are changing its dynamics. The factors that are
reshaping the structure of the industry are examined with
a view to identifying the key issues whose impact will be
critical in the future. The book features two very
distinct sections. The first contains short contributions
from industry executives at CEO/VP level from airlines,
aircraft/engine manufacturers, safety and navigational
provider organisations, who have set out their take of
where the airline industry is heading. This commercial
input sets the scene for the book and provides the bridge
to the second section, which is composed of 15 chapters
written by distinguished academic authors. Each chapter
presents a valuable insight into a specific area of the
air transport industry, including: airlines, airports,
cargo, deregulation, the environment, navigation, strategy,
information technology, security and tourism. The shared
objective of the authors is to describe and explain the
core competencies that are determining the current shape
of the industry and to examine the forces that will change
its direction going forward. The book is written in a
management style and will appeal to all levels of
personnel who work for airlines across the world. It is
also written for airport authorities, aerospace
manufacturers, regulatory and government transportation
agencies, researchers and students of aviation management,
transport studies, tourism and the wider air transport
industry.
