2.3 - Discussion Deregulation of the Airline Industry

Q Consider the history of the airline industry regulation and deregulation: In 1978, President Carter signed legislation changing the airline industry from being strictly controlled through the Civil Aeronautics Board to being highly competitive. Since 1978, the airlines have merged, folded, expanded, decentralized, and changed in many other ways. Watch the video, Airline Deregulation: The Document That Transformed The Industry (YouTube 9:53): After watching the video, discuss the following: Should the airlines continue to be deregulated, should the Federal Government go back to total regulation, or should a middle ground (some form of regulation) be adopted for the U.S. airline industry?

This is because there have been transformation of past trends of expensive air fares and lack of customers into low cost air fares and more of customers travelling by air presently. This is because when there had been regulation of the airlines industry; there had never been the observance of the present type of positivity.
