Launch Date: September 2020

This report is timed to coincide with the point where most expect that travel bans will be lifting and the sector will be making detailed plans for how to navigate the next few years. The report will draw on a global industry survey, expert interviews, wide ranging research, and detailed analysis. It will highlight the drivers that could shape the loner term future of the sector and emphasize the critical importance of ensuring present day thinking takes account of the longer term possibilities, opportunities, and challenges. The aim is to ensure that crisis driven decisions don’t close the door to future options. Key topics covered will include external drivers of change, long term implications of current pandemic, airport infrastructure and terminal design, airport technology and the passenger experience, the in-flight travel experience and service developments, airport and airline commercial strategies and business models, aircraft technology developments, the future use of information and technology and artificial intelligence in aviation, passenger use of technology, and environmental strategies.
