Airports and Aviation Regulation
- Governments control international aviation markets through the allocation of traffic rights
- The 1944 Chicago Convention regulated international aviation, assigning access to national rights requiring ownership and control within a state.
- This regulation also governs airfares, handed over to IATA.
Phases of Regulatory Focus in Aviation
- Regulation Era:
- 1910-1918: Military importance.
- 1920s: National integration (mail services).
- 1930s: Internationalism (BA/KL).
- 1940s: Military Development.
- Late 1940s-1970s: Economic regulation.
- Deregulating and New Regulating Era:
- 1970s-1970s: Domestic deregulation in US.
- 1980s: International deregulation (open skies, EU packages).
- 1980s-2000s: Private infrastructure (airports).
- 2000s: Airline partnerships and mergers
- 2020s: Environmental regulations.
