Geographic Perspectives of Air Transportation

Abstract

Past, present, and future research directions and advances in this highly dynamic research area of air transportation are reviewed with an eye toward geographers' contributions to the air transportation industry. The study of air transportation within the field of transportation geography and the larger discipline of geography is important as geographers use air transportation to help describe concepts such as connectivity and linkages, development patterns at various scales, and the global economy. This article takes three approaches in exploring geographers' contributions to research in the field: historical, publication outlets, and topic focus. The goal of the article is to commemorate the contributions of pioneer and current researchers in the field, and open to discussion future research paths in air transportation.
