Airlines Management Textbook

Airlines Management is a comprehensive textbook designed to bridge academic knowledge and real-world airline practice, offering a contemporary perspective on how airlines are managed, operated, and positioned in an increasingly complex global aviation environment.
Authored by Dr. Thai Binh Tran and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Pham Van Hong, with academic sponsorship from Prof. Dr. Hikmet Karakoç, the book integrates management theory with industry insights, strategic frameworks, practical examples, and visual learning tools. Drawing partly on Dr. Tran’s doctoral research on airline strategy, it explores the airline business from both strategic and operational perspectives.
Across 516 pages, the book covers key dimensions of airline management, including the airline business environment, strategy, network and route development, fleet and operations, commercial management, economics, costs, revenue, service, sustainability, and the transformation of the global airline industry.
More than a textbook, Airlines Management is designed as a practical learning platform for students, academics, aviation professionals, and future industry leaders — connecting the classroom with the realities of airline management.
