The Future of European Regional Airports. Strategic Options to Improve Efficiency at European Regional Airports

Bachelorarbeit aus dem Jahr 2020 im Fachbereich BWL – Sonstiges, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The following paper will examine and elaborate possible strategic options for airports and regional airports to improve efficiency through an extended literature research. Regional airports play already an important role in the aviation industry as they absorb capacities from larger airports. With an increase in passenger in the next 20 years, their role will become even more important in order to keep the system running. However, regional airports need strategic options in order not to collapse under increasing passenger load. However, they have not only an important role in air transport but also as an economic driver in regions. Airports attract investment, create jobs and make internationalization of regional companies possible. Numerous regional airports, especially in Spain, Italy, Greece and other tourism destinations, have benefited from the appearance of low-cost carriers to welcome tourists in their region and gaining in visibility to attract tourists. .
