The aviation industry is a major driver of world trade. As global markets and economies are constantly evolving, practitioners and academics need more quality information and a broader perspective of aviation management rather than just silo-based knowledge, particularly if they wish to move up the management ladder and progress. Air Transport Management presents the dynamic shifts which have influenced structural changes in the aviation industry, such as the emergence of low cost carriers. These changes have transformed the market, leading to deregulation and consolidation. The author provides a viable road map aimed at giving students and managers in the aviation industry a rigorous understanding on how to manage strategically in complex and turbulent market conditions. Air Transport Management examines the airline industry structure in terms of entry barriers, competition dynamics and competing business models. With the inclusion of fascinating case studies, this handbook assesses different business models used by international companies and proposes best fit management practices which airlines should follow in order to survive.

The aviation industry presents a unique conundrum with the complex relationship between government oversight and business management. While the aviation industry operates in a business-oriented manner, a considerable number of aviation companies and airports worldwide are still government-owned. The COVID-19 pandemic has accentuated the pivotal role of governments in the industry, highlighting the need for a comprehensive understanding of this interaction, given the sector's massive economic influence and the extensive investment required. The need for an in-depth exploration of this liaison has never been more pressing. Strategic Management and Policy in the Global Aviation Industry offers an insightful and comprehensive solution to this enigmatic issue. This book delves into the dynamics of the aviation sector's reliance on government intervention and support, providing invaluable perspectives for academic scholars and industry enthusiasts. It explores the critical role governments play in the development and sustainability of aviation companies, especially in the wake of the pandemic, where governments worldwide stepped in to bolster their national aviation companies. Additionally, the book explores the industry's efforts to align with the United Nations' sustainability targets and the critical influence of government regulations in achieving these goals. It also dissects the digital transformation and the integration of innovative technologies in aviation, setting the stage for a more efficient and innovative industry. Furthermore, it unveils the burgeoning role of artificial intelligence in the quest for cost reduction and enhanced operational efficiency in the fiercely competitive aviation market.

This proceedings volume gathers selected, blinded peer-reviewed contributions presented at the XXIX International Joint Conference on Industrial Engineering and Operations Management (IJCIEOM), held in Lisbon, Portugal, from June 28th to 30th, 2023. This volume focuses especially on the applications of Industrial Engineering and Operations Management for research and practice. It includes relevant information for academics since most of the chapters focus on real-world case studies and systematic reviews. It also provides valuable insights for professionals in the industrial sector by presenting solutions to complex industrial challenges. The 2023 iteration of the IJCIEOM conference had the theme "Developing resilience in Industrial Engineering and Operations Management" and aimed to analyze the resilience of supply chains in the post-COVID-19 era. The works published in this volume focus on how Digital Transformation (DX) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) have made the manufacturing and service industry more resistant to VUCA elements (i.e., volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous). Regarding DX and AI, the research specifically focused on supply chain management, project management, and Industry 4.0. Other studies explore how industrial engineering incorporated innovative and technological concepts into service and product operations. Overall, this volume provides a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners alike as it presents numerous relevant contributions in identifying new challenges and opportunities for industrial engineering and operations management. This conference was sponsored by renowned international industry engineering associations, particularly the American Society for Engineering Management (ASEM), the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE), and the Asociación para el Desarrollo de la Ingeniería de Organización (ADINGOR).
