Airports and tourism in Mozambique
Tourism Management, 2014Abstract This paper analyses airport efficiency in Mozambique from 2000 to 2012, estimating a cost function with random and fixed effects stochastic frontier models. A robustness test is undertaken with a Bayesian stochastic frontier model. The airports are ranked according to their technical efficiency (TE). The policy implication is that Mozambique

Tourism indicators and airports' technical efficiency
Annals of Tourism Research, 2020Abstract The Spanish airports are managed centrally by a government-owned company (AENA).

Transportation Research, Part D: Transport and Environment, 2010
Airport infrastructure in many countries is being up-graded to meet the growing demands of tourism, and air travel more generally, but this poses problems for sustainable development. Thus, there is the need to establish an alternative to the traditional airport pricing structure for landing fees so as to reflect the true cost that air transports ...

Airport subsidies and domestic inbound tourism in China
Annals of Tourism Research, 2021Abstract Since 2013, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) has subsidized small and medium-sized airports. The key objective of this study is to empirically validate the benefits and impacts of airport subsidies in facilitating domestic tourism development. This study contributes to the aviation and tourism literature and offers important

The impact of tourism on airport efficiency: The Spanish case
Utilities Policy, 2018Abstract This paper considers the impact of tourism on airports efficiency. Using stochastic frontier analysis (SFA) methods, an input-oriented distance function was estimated for a sample of 35 Spanish airports over the 2009 to 2016 period. Air transport and tourism are highly connected.

The airline – airport – tourism destination authority relationship
2022Οι διαρθρωτικές αλλαγές στις αερομεταφορές και τον τουρισμό αφενός και η οικονομική ύφεση που ξέσπασε στην Ευρώπη στα τέλη του 2009 αφετέρου άνοιξαν το δρόμο για συλλογικές πρωτοβουλίες και συνεργασίες. Η περίπτωση του Athens Tourism Partnership αποτελεί παράδειγμα μιας τέτοιας συλλογικής πρωτοβουλίας που ξεκίνησε τον Δεκέμβριο του 2016 και αποτελείται
