Legitimation of regional airports in the Czech Republic - case study of Pardubice Airport
Valečka, Filip ; Witz, Petr (advisor) ; Vejchodská, Eliška (referee)
This thesis focuses on Czech regional airports and its problematics in relations to public finances. Despite the small country which Czech Republic is, regional airports are common in our regional cities. Mostly are these airports operated by regions and managed by their councils. That means financing from public budgets. First part of my thesis confirms that running these big infrastructure projects is very expensive. Moreover, none of them is profitable. And it is not caused by passing Covid pandemic in the last years. Regional airports are long term loss-making projects. The analytical part discusses about one case study of Pardubice Airport located in the east of Bohemia. Research evaluates a new project of Jan Kašpar Terminal in relation to its legitimacy. But the question is, how to observe legitimacy of public projects? This thesis builds the research on three dimensions of legitimacy inspired by analysis of authors Witz et al. These dimensions are majority, morality and thrust. Outputs are based on content and media analysis. The output is undefended legitimacy as a whole and the project remains questionable, especially because of missing strategy of development, hidden political controversies or inaccurate study which was used for public political decision-making.
Relationship between air transport and tourism in Central Europe
HAVLÍKOVÁ, Denisa
The bachelor thesis deals with the relationship between air transport and tourism in Central Europe. The first part of the thesis describes air transport, the current changes, including liberalization, deregulation, network type hub- and-spoke and point- to-point. The following part is about characterization of low-cost airlines, which are still developing. The thesis describes the cause of origin of low cost airlines and the reason for their incessant development. The analytical part of thesis is focused on seasonal offer flights at selected airports in Central Europe and on the differences in the availability of target destinations during the year 2014. The attention is also paid to the differences of airlines offer between low-cost and network carriers and between large international and small regional airports. The airports were chosen according to their size and the number of passengers and number of flights during year (large international airports, small regional airports, etc.). The data required for this analysis were obtained from the database FlightStats 2014. The database contains details of all flights from all around the world. The results show that the season (mainly the summer) has impact on the airlines offer in Central Europe. The season has an impact on the amount and spatial expansion of flights to various destinations. There is also a boom in regional airports that are associated with the rapidly evolving and emerging low-cost airlines.
