4.3 - Discussion Current Trends in the Airline Industry

Q From the module resources and your research, we know the airline industry has had its challenges over the past few years. Several trends have contributed to the industry's bankruptcies, mergers, and buyouts. For example, oil prices are increasing, and global traffic growth is expected to slow in 2017, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA) - a slowdown that is particularly likely if the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth remains sluggish. Discuss For this discussion chose an article (or video) on current trends in the airline industry. Link your video/article in your post with a summary and your analysis of how these trends can affect competition and profits for organizations.
