Economics of Airline and Airport Management
Introduction
The continuity of business becomes a major concern when a company
experiences a downturn due to the fierce competition , natural disaster ,
and industrial events including ones caused by terrorism . In early 21st
century , when there was a terrorist attack on the famous building in the
world , World Trade Center and Pentagon , we witness that such attack has
cost the country 's economy in major reform both operational and
fundamental aspects not to mention severe impact on the air travel
industry .
The 9 /11 attacks have significant impact on the continuity of air
traveling . This is because such attacks will decrease travelers ' trusts
to going by airplanes . When it happens , Boeing and Airbus , as the
leading manufacturers of airplanes , faced declining demands for new

this paper will discuss several issues that influence it .

declined about 12 .6 equals to 1 .32 a share , to 9 .16 . This condition

Jones industrial experienced a rise about 60 points . The condition

Northwest share from previously 3 .1 billion into about 2 .7 billion (Reed and Adams 2008 .
