“…Así, los ingresos no-aeronáuticos han cobrado tal relevancia que en muchos países o regiones casi han igualado, en porcentaje, a los aeronáuticos (Díaz Olariaga, 2015). Esto significa que los aeropuertos cada vez más dependen de los ingresos comerciales para generar los fondos necesarios para costear las grandes inversiones en infraestructura (Jimenez et al, 2014;Fröhlich, 2010). Esto conduce a una fuerte interdependencia de los aeropuertos con su cliente indirecto, los pasajeros, tan importante ahora como su cliente directo, las compañías aéreas (Graham, 2014).…”

Research article. Over the past 25 years the aviation market liberalization has been one of the factors driving the changing business environment in which airports operate today. These are beginning to stop being natural monopolies and are already competing with their market power being threatened. The factors driving airport competition are: greater freedom and flexibility of airlines to decide where their fleet operates, and their ability to change base of operations; more and better options for passengers to plan and decide where to start and finish their trips / tours; privatization of airports; and the entry into the market of new airports. This review article analyzes, through these factors, and from a general framework, the characteristics of airport competition today.ResumenArtículo de investigación.

Nos últimos 25 anos, a liberalização do mercado de aviação tem sido um dos fatores que impulsionam o ambiente de negócios em mudança em que os aeroportos operam hoje. Estes estão começando a deixar de ser monopólios naturais e já estão competindo uns com os outros, com seu poder de mercado sendo ameaçado. Os fatores que impulsionam a concorrência nos aeroportos são: maior liberdade e flexibilidade das companhias aéreas para decidir onde sua frota opera e sua capacidade de mudar a base de operações; mais e melhores opções para os passageiros planejarem e decidirem por onde começar e terminar suas viagens / passeios; privatização de aeroportos; e a entrada no mercado de novos aeroportos.

“…In an MAS airports compete with each other for traffic and services (Copenhagen Economics, 2012;de Neufville & Odoni, 2003;Jimenez et al, 2013;Pels et al, 2009) generating complex dynamics for planning and operations (de Neufville, 1995a(de Neufville, , 1995b. Bonnefoy (2008) studied some of those dynamics to determine how airport systems can be scaled by developing into an MAS along time.…”

“…An important body of literature links the emergence of LCCs to the availability of 'secondary' airports where they could thrive avoiding direct competition with other airlines (Barbot, 2006;de Neufville, 2008;Dobruszkes, 2006Dobruszkes, , 2013Francis, Fidato, & Humphreys, 2003;Francis, Humphreys, & Ison, 2004;Franke, 2004;Zhang, Hanaoka, Inamura, & Ishikura, 2008). This aspect has been studied as a trigger for competition between airports (Jimenez, Claro, & Pinho de Sousa, 2013;Pels, Njegovan, & Behrens, 2009) a factor for airport efficiency (Martini, Manello, & Scotti, 2013), and as a potential asset to increase network connectivity (Malighetti, Paleari, & Redondi, 2008). Yet recent developments in Europe show that primary airports are in the core of LCC expansion and that the implication of this trend for smaller secondary airports remain unclear (Dobruszkes, Givoni, & Vowles, 2017).…”

Airport systems adapted to the influx of Low-Cost Carriers (LCC) as the segment grew to prominence in the European market during the last decades. The generalised perspective that LCCs are attached to remote secondary airports is being increasingly challenged by recent moves of the largest European LCC. The reality is that the impact of LCCs has spread to most commercial airports in Europe, primary and secondary alike. Yet, despite valuable insights on the evolution of airline networks, existing literatures lacks a clear understanding of why this has occurred. This paper explains the dynamics in the evolution of airports systems that resulted in significant growth for the low-cost segment in Europe. A multiple case study involving 42 European airports provides evidence to identify the mechanisms that trigger the traffic patterns leading to the ascendency of LCCs in their respective airport systems. Understanding these mechanisms may probe valuable for airport strategic planning. Highlights • LCCs in Europe have significantly impacted both major and secondary airports • New infrastructure encourages the growth of LCCs, even if not directly aimed at LCCs • Market dynamics led many European airports to focus on LCC traffic

INFORMACIÓN DEL ARTÍCULO ResumenLa infraestructura, modernización y crecimiento modular que ha experimentado el anterior aeropuerto Simón Bolívar, conocido ahora como José Joaquín de Olmedo, desde la inauguración de su nueva terminal en julio de 2006, ha permitido que muchas aerolíneas encuentren atractivo el hacer de éste, su centro de conexiones internacionales, lo que a su vez ha permitido que el incremento del número de llegadas y salidas de visitantes que arriban al Ecuador, se produzcan desde la ciudad de Guayaquil. A partir de una investigación de tipo descriptiva y cumpliendo las normas de la autoridad aeroportuaria, se aplicaron encuestas aleatorias a turistas extranjeros que salieron desde Guayaquil, luego de visitar Ecuador, encontrándose que muchos de ellos realizaron su viaje por actividades relacionadas con su tiempo libre o negocios. El resultado de este estudio permitió determinar su percepción, intereses, probabilidad de retorno, recomendación del destino y otros datos relacionados, sobre la experiencia previa y posterior de su visita al país. Palabras Clave:Imagen del destino, percepción, atractivo turístico, emociones, frecuencia.
