Airports serve an essential role in domestic and international travel, facilitating the origination, termination, and connections of air flights. Airport services enhance regional, national, and global connections, increasing the mobility of people worldwide and enhancing local and regional economies. Although there is a large amount of literature that examines airline costs and productivity, consumer welfare from air travel, and the influence of economic regulation of airline services, there is much less literature that examines airports. This is important, as airport operations play a critical role in influencing airline travel. This volume examines the role that airports play in economic development and land values, the regulation and economic efficiency of airports, airport pricing and competition, and the role played by airports in influencing airline operations and networks.

Economics, business scholars, architects, and others examine the role that airports play in economic development and land values, the regulation and economic efficiency of airports, airport pricing and competition, and the role played by airports in influencing airline operations and networks. They also discuss the crucial role of airports in the scope of airline services. Their topics include two-sidedness and welfare neutrality in airport concessions, airport-airline arrangements an interpretive review of industry practices and recent studies, the cost structure of the airport industry: methodological issues and empirical evidence, the heterogeneous impact of airports on populations and employment growth in cities, and low-cost carriers and airports: a complex relationship.
