General Information

Overview

Aviation Economics will provide a broad perspective of how economic theories and financial concepts relate and apply to the air transport industry. You will develop a critical awareness of the economic principles and theories that underpin air transport management and the concepts of demand and supply, elasticity, and regulation and deregulation as they apply to airlines and airports. In this unit, you will examine the inter-related nature of air transport and other sectors of an economy, and the interactions of air transport with broader socio-economic, tourism and environmental issues.
