Over 120 years of meticulous investigation and product innovation by scores of scientists, engineers, designers, academics, and market researchers worldwide have enabled the development of a truly global commercial air transport industry that both stimulates and responds to complex patterns of trade and the mass mobility of people, goods and information. Research- whether technological, economic, customer-oriented, or academic - has been central to the formation, expansion, and evolution of commercial air transport and will be key to its future.

The Research Handbook on Air Transport Management brings together leading academic researchers from around the world to reflect on and synthesise the state of the art in their respective subject specialisms. In so doing, the Handbook demonstrates the depth and diversity of research into various facets of flight, and identifies areas requiring future work. Given the multiple challenges the air transport sector faces - including climate change, evolving consumer trends, and political uncertainty - this book not only offers a point of consolidation and reflection, but also a foundation for future activity.

Interdisciplinary in scope, this Research Handbook is an essential resource for academics and students in transport, environmental regulation and governance, tourism management, and human geography. Its insights will also benefit practitioners and government officials in the air transport sector.
