This book will explore a new approach to airport planning that
better captures the complexities and velocity of change in our
contemporary world. As a result, it will lead to higher performing
airports for users, business partners, investors and other
stakeholders. This is especially pertinent since airports will need
to come back better from the Covid-19 pandemic. The book explains
the importance of articulating a clear strategy, based on a
rigorous analysis of the competitive landscape while avoiding the
pitfalls of ambiguity and 'virtue signalling'. Having done so,
demand forecasts can be developed that resemble S-curves, not
simple straight lines, that reflect strategic opportunities and
threats from which a master plan can be developed to allocate land
and capital in a way that maximizes return on assets and social
licence. The second distinctive feature of this book is the premise
that planning an airport as an island, a fortress even, does not
work anymore given how interconnected airports are with other
components of the transportation system, the economies and
communities they serve and the rapid pace of social and
technological change. In summary, the book argues that airport
planning needs to move beyond its traditional boundaries. The book
is replete with real examples from airports of all sizes around the
world and includes practical advice and tools for executives and
managers. It is recommended reading for individuals working in the
airport business or the broader air transport industry, members of
airports' board of directors, who may be new to the business,
elected officials, policy makers and urban planners in
jurisdictions hosting or adjacent to airports, regulators, economic
development professionals and, finally, students.
