Airline Finance

"Air transport industry finance, with its complexity and special needs such as route rights, airport slots, aircraft leasing options and frequent flyer programmes, requires specific knowledge. While there are numerous financial management and corporate finance texts available, few of these provide explanations for the singularities of the airline industry with worked examples drawn directly from the industry itself." "Revised and updated in its second edition, this book provides the essentials to understanding all areas of airline finance. Designed to address each of the distinct areas of financial management in an air transport industry context, it also shows how these fit together, while each chapter and topic provides a detailed resource which can also be consulted separately." The book is a key resource for students of airline management, and a sophisticated and authoritative guide for analysts in financial institutions and consultancies; executives in airlines and related industries, and civil aviation departments.
