Resumo(s)
Due to airline market deregulation in Europe LCC’s (Low-Cost Carriers) depicts a fast growth in the last
decade and it’s expected that this growth continues in the next years. Also, thisEuropean airline market
change has affected the way many airports operate and it’s likely that thischange impacts not only airports
performance and efficiency, but also its hinterland. Tourism development is one of the main beneficiaries of
this new paradigm.
Airport hinterland definition is very broad.Traditionally hinterland is measured by several kilometres’
radiuscentred on the airport or a certain travel time from one pointto the airport. However, this definition
may be considered too simplistic because there are other indicators that can determine such influence
area.Therefore, current literature prefers to do it in combination with certain pre-defined criteria: airport
impact or effectiveness assessment, or a tourism destination perspective.
This paper presents a study on airport hinterland socio-economic activity, with emphasis on tourism
development due to LCC operations. Thestudy analyses socio-economic indicators from 2006 to 2012, a
period whichrepresents the full operation entry and evolution of LCC’s in the Portuguese south airport of
Faro.
Results are aligned with the expectations created by literature review as well by the empirical preliminary
analysis from the case study, showing a possible correlation between LCC movements and some hinterland
indicators with direct impact on the tourism sector.
