Air connectivity on Samoa. Chances and Risks

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2017 im Fachbereich Tourismus - Sonstiges, Note: 1,3, Hochschule für angewandte Wissenschaften Kempten, Veranstaltung: International Tourism Studies, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: The purpose of this research is to describe the current situation of air connectivity on Samoa and its chances and risks related to the recent developments. Therefore, it's important to reveal the overall situation in the South Pacific. Government ownership, geographical isolation and missing coordination are the main challenges. Furthermore, this paper monitors the drivers of air connection on Samoa. The existing airport infrastructure, the airline business models and the political framework are influencers on the degree of integration in the global network. Restructuration programmes, negotiations and agreements with other states and airlines, as well as social and environmental factors cause chances and risks for the Small Island Developing State (SIDS). Reducing government interference and increasing coordination between the networks participants will lead to a lower risk of failure and an improvement in air connection. Air connectivity is the key to market access and economic development on Samoa and dependent on the government decisions and strategy.
