Our research is focused on a set of interlinked questions, which address the key issues facing the aviation system today and into the future.
How can the aviation system reach net zero climate impact with minimum economic disruptions?
What
policies can
drive this transition, and what practical steps need to be taken at what point to reach this goal?
How does competition in different airline and airport markets along with passenger and freight shipper choice behaviour affect system outcomes?
What is the market potential of new aviation technologies and fuels?
What airlines would be their (early)
adopters, and how would these technologies be used in a profit-optimal way?
How do different aviation stakeholders respond to changes such as new policy interventions, alterations in
system capacity, or disruptive events?
Can we use our knowledge of these interactions to better guide
government policies and industry strategies to such changes?
What will future aviation systems and networks look like, and
what does that mean for passengers, freight
shippers, the aviation value chain, and society as a whole?
