The aviation industry is facing pressure from stakeholders to transform towards greater sustainability. From a managerial and marketing perspective, not only the actual implementation and achievements of sustainability measures, but also their communication to stakeholders is likely to be...

Background: Defining the optimal fleet portfolio is a crucial process in airline planning. The published efforts in literature provide ways to anticipate the disruption effects on the passenger demand; however, the proposed solution in this paper provides visibility on the impact of sustainable...

"A Short History of Transport in Japan from Ancient Times to the Present is a unique study: the first by a Western scholar to place the long-term development of Japanese infrastructure alongside an analysis of its evolving political economy. Drawing from New Institutional Economics, Black offers...

The paper explores the long versus short-term attributes of the airline industry exposure to oil price risk in a macroeconomic framework that emphasizes the interconnections between various risk factors, which is the main contribution to the research in the field. A panel ARDL model and PMG...

The COVID-19 pandemic was a health, economic, and financial crisis. The aviation sector was one of the most severely hit. Despite the extensive literature on this, COVID-Finance has been focused on stock returns, neglecting what could be learnt from the spreads of airlines' credit default swaps...

The climate targets of the European Union (EU) are defined in relation to historical benchmarks: for instance, the European Climate Law requires net domestic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to be reduced by at least 55% by 2030 compared to 1990. However, for aviation and maritime transport,...

A ERA Pilot initiative at EU level is proposed to cover the main future needs for updating/constructing technology infrastructures and fostering collaboration in aviation research (e.g. wind tunnels, engine test benches) to make them fit for disruptive aviation technologies, including hydrogen...

Electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft manufacturers await numerous pre-orders for eVTOLs and expect demand for such advanced air mobility (AAM) aircraft to rise dramatically soon. However, eVTOL manufacturers (EMs) cannot commence mass production of commercial eVTOLs due to a...

In the 21st century, the working environment is changing rapidly, and competition is fierce. In industries such as airlines, it is crucial to identify the factors that drive employee performance. This study aims to determine the elements of organizational citizenship behaviors (OCBs) that have...

The taxation of aviation is a frequently discussed component of governments’ efforts to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. This study examines the impact of the German aviation tax on passenger numbers during the period 2011-2019 using five panel data estimators and a Specification Curve...

Since its launch in 2022 the Clean Aviation Joint Undertaking (CAJU) has been at the forefront of pioneering technologies that are driving the sustainable aviation revolution, working towards the sector's target of achieving climate neutrality by 2050.

Since 2016, annual reports synthesise the ESF achievements on the basis of the annual implementation reports submitted by member states. This latest edition summarises the achievements by end 2022 (reported by Member States in 2023). It was prepared by the ESF Data Support Centre.

Air traffic management (ATM) has an important contribution to make towards the overall effort supporting climate-neutral aviation. In the SESAR Joint Undertaking (SESAR JU), we have united the entire ATM community - airports, air navigation service providers, civil and military airspace users,...

The need to decarbonize international aviation and maritime has long been overlooked. The two sectors account for a small but rapidly growing share of global CO2 emissions, and could rise to as much as 15 to 40 percent by 2040. Pricing these emissions could help global climate policy in two...
