The Future Development of Airports: A Multidimensional Examination

Milan Janic

Transportation Planning and Technology, 2007, vol. 31, issue 1, 113-134

Abstract: The development of airports as the main component of air transport system infrastructure is influenced by direct external developments (such as the globalisation and privatisation of the airline industry, deregulation of domestic and liberalisation of international markets, increased airline competition and volatile prices of the major airlines) and indirect external developments (such as socio-economic forces and political events influencing the growth of air transport demand). This paper examines the past, current and future development of airports through four dimensions: (i) operational, sizing, and design of the airside and landside infrastructure; (ii) economic; (iii) environmental; and (iv) social. The prospective future development of airports through these dimensions is synthesised using cases from the European and the US air transport systems.
