About Transport and Aviation

GoConqr Original

What this unit covers

Most of this page is mind maps. They look at the aviation industry from several angles: airports (major, regional and local), airlines (full-service, low-cost, charter and cargo), ancillaries, trade associations and regulatory bodies. Others move beyond air travel, such as Cruise Industry, which looks at one of the fastest growing segments of the travel industry.

Where to start

Begin with the mind map The Aviation Industry. It sets out who the players are, from airports to airlines to regulators. Then open The airline Industry, which mentions IATA, the International Air Transport Association, and the early days of the industry.

  1. Read Airlines to see how carriers and their suppliers fit together.
  2. Move to Hub & Spoke for the advantages of routing through a hub.
  3. Try Market Evaluation - Macro apprach if you are studying planning. It steps through demand, supply, expected traffic growth and load factor.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a map first, then take the Airport & Aviation quiz. It asks about general aviation planes, feeder airlines and the most profitable passenger market segment. Where you miss a question, go back to the matching map and read that branch again. The quiz Airport participants (unit 2) and the revision quiz on methods of travel give you more practice.

Notes and flashcards

The notes include material on factors affecting travel to long-haul destinations, airport commercial revenues and the relationship between airports and airlines. There are also flashcard decks on airline codes and three-letter city codes, handy for short, regular practice.

Where it sits

This unit belongs to the Destinations and Travel strand of Tourism and hospitality. The resources suit university students and professional candidates, school students and teachers looking for ready-made material.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Start with the mind map The Aviation Industry. It lays out airports, airlines, ancillaries, trade associations and regulatory bodies, so you see the whole picture before the detail. After that, the Airport & Aviation quiz shows you which parts need another look.

What do the mind maps cover?

They cover airports and airlines, low-cost and full-service carriers, hub and spoke networks, airline forecasting and passenger services. Some go beyond flying, with maps on the cruise industry, travelling through London and transport and tourism more widely.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed on this page is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

Who made these resources?

They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. Over 120 contributors have added maps, notes, quizzes and flashcards here, so styles and depth vary. Compare a couple of maps on the same topic to get a fuller view.

Is there anything on IATA and airline codes?

Yes. The mind map The airline Industry mentions IATA, and there are notes on an IATA report about the impact of September 2001 on aviation. Flashcard decks on airline codes and city codes let you practise recall.

Which levels do these resources suit?

They suit university students and professional candidates, school students and teachers. Most of the material is aimed at secondary and university level, with a smaller share for professional study, so check each map's depth before relying on it.
