Thesis Topic/Title:
Air Transport Policy and the Role of Air Transport in Supporting the Sustainability of Tourism, Logistics, Employment, and Regional Development

Description

Air transport is an important component of a modern economy and an essential input to many trading sectors. Higher costs of air transport add to the cost of domestic and international trade and reduce the demand for tourism and other sectors that depend on people movement. An efficient air transport system benefits the economy and improves consumer welfare. Unnecessary regulations on airfare pricing and market access in air transport impose ‘taxes’ on the movement of goods and people, which restricts the degree of economic integration. A research on the impact of air transport on tourism, logistis and other sectors of our economy is much needed to build the momentum for nex step reforms towards an open skies regime.
