Airports as Drive Wheels of our Society. The Role and Significance of Airports [PDF ebook] 

Seminar paper from the year 2021 in the subject Transportation Science & Technology, grade: 70, City University London, language: English, abstract: This paper is looking for verification of the hypothesis mentioned above. Which role do airports play in our society? Do airports eventually boost our economies? Moreover, how do states take influence on airports? The author subdivides the issue further and selects two airports, Munich Airport (MUC), Germany, and the New Istanbul Airport (IST) in Turkey, to
illustrate particular aspects with specific examples. Both of them function as a hub and spoke airport and therefore present some standard features. However, the main difference is the state and the political system in which they operate.
