With ready availability of routes, more efficient aircraft and simplified sales distribution systems, the success of an airline depends centrally on the ability of managers to understand and correctly respond to market opportunities. This 6th edition of Stephen Shaw's respected book brings a framework to airline marketing that is essential reading to all involved in air transport.

'Stephen Shaw's Airline Marketing and Management has set the standard for airline marketing textbooks. The sixth edition is as useful as the first was all those years ago and focuses on both the long-term problems that the industry continues to face, as well as the new ones that are constantly emerging. As the author points out, there is certainly no shortage of the latter, which makes a new edition of the book particularly timely.'
