Abstract:

This conference presentation addresses the topic of where and what kind of airport development will be required in the 21st century. In a market-driven aviation system under a first-come, first-serve operating premise, passenger and shipper demands will answer that question, and development will occur where it is needed. If the system evolves with corporate interests more and more running airports, it will further amplify the focus on airports where the demand lies. The Los Angeles multi-airport system is discussed as an example where aviation activity is highly concentrated in the largest airports. Regulatory and policy changes that could help in adding capacity in difficult urban markets, where it is most needed, are discussed.
