Safety Management Systems and their Origins: Insights from the Aviation Industry presents different perspectives on SMS to better decode what it means as a safety approach and what it implicitly conveys beyond safety.

Unprecedented social changes, accelerated by facilitating technologies and the COVID-19 pandemic, are calling for airlines to think deeply and non-conventionally on what will be important to existing and new travelers, as they change their lifestyles. New thinking requires airlines to extend the boundaries of their businesses to go beyond their traditional domains. This need goes beyond the renovation and iteration of conventional products to the transformation of products requiring new ideas and ways to scale them. Examples include the development of cost-effective urban air mobility, intermodal passenger transportation, door-to-door travel that is sustainable, and personalized offers.Airimagination: Extending the Airline Business Boundaries raises some thought-provoking questions and provides a direction for practical solutions. For example, what if airlines developed products and services that finally meet end-to-end needs of customers seamlessly by collaborating in the value-adding open ecosystems, using platforms that facilitate effective engagement with both "digital and nondigital" customers and employees in real time and at each touch point? Ironically, the current time is an advantage for some airlines as they already have had to deal with a deep and wide disruption caused by the pandemic, leading operations to start from ground zero.This book, the latest in a long and well-regarded series by Nawal K. Taneja, explores innovative best practices within the airline business world, complemented by numerous insightful perspectives contained in multiple forewords and thought leadership pieces. This book is aimed primarily at high-level practitioners within the airline industry and related businesses.

Ethiopian Airlines was founded in 1945. At first, only domestic and regional destinations were served. However, in 1957, flights to Europe began. Despite various obstacles, Ethiopian continued to invest and grow. With over 100 images, this book shows how Ethiopian Airlines has remained the powerhouse of African aviation.

From early 2020 for a period of two years at the end of which  this book was written, air transport suffered unprecedented setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Although the pandemic may eventually fizzle out into another flu like occurrence, the restraint with which air transport services were offered would remain with us for a while with some practices being sustained, particularly those pertaining to public health.  One of the main areas of air transport that was and will be affected significantly by the changed circumstances  - is facilitation - a subject  that is regulated by the Chicago Convention of 1944 and its Annex 9.  This book looks in depth at  the Annex as it will be applied in a post pandemic world, against its legal, socio-political, and economic impacts, addressing the Standards of the Annex on clearance of aircraft; entry and departure of passengers; and the carriage of cargo. It also discusses some critical aviation events in 2020 and 2021 that occurred as they relate to facilitation of air transport.  Some of the key areas discussed are the role of ICAO; issues of public health as they relate to air transport; security of travel documents; smuggling of persons; digital technology and rights of the passenger; unruly passengers; carriage of disabled passengers; relief flights and repatriation flights; and facilities at airports.

Travel is central to our lives. The transport system brings us the goods and services that we need and allows us to access the experiences and opportunities that we seek. Yet our transport system has many problems: congestion and overcrowding, noise, air pollution and carbon emissions, deaths and injuries, and the intrusion of vehicles into unsuitable locations. Much effort and money has been devoted to tackling these problems, over many years, but progress is slow.

Waka Paddle to Gas Pedal - The First Century of Auckland Transport - describes the evolution of Auckland's transport systems in terms of the aspirations and activities of various businessmen, planners, engineers, and politicians and the ensuing success and failure of their enterprises between 1840 and 1940. The story tells of how national and local parochialism and the propensity for many Aucklanders to reap a harvest of capital gains by speculating in land have been responsible for the delay and failure of many transport initiatives. During the development of their various transport systems, there has been no lack of ambition expressed by Aucklanders struggling with the challenges of travelling and trading across their isthmus and beyond. Unfortunately for the present-day commuter and trader, and for reasons as diverse as the thousands of vehicles that now choke the City's roads, precious few ambitions were realised. This is the story of those that succeeded, but mostly of those that failed, and how.The story provides some explanation to those thousands of motorists who now crawl, seemingly forever, along Auckland's roads; those with plenty of time to wonder, 'How did I get here?'

On October 1, 2015, the American container ship El Faro sailed straight into the eye of Hurricane Joaquin in the Bermuda Triangle and vanished. When all thirty-three aboard were lost, El Faro became the deadliest American maritime accident in more than a generation. Why did the huge ship, equipped with satellite communica-tions and sophisticated weather forecasting software, steam into the storm? Three miles down, deeper than the Titanic, the ship's black box held damning secrets, including twenty-six hours of conversations between captain and crew leading up to El Faro's final moments. Relying on extensive investigative reporting, as well as the words of the doomed mariners themselves, Rachel Slade unravels the mystery behind this tragedy.

"A fast-paced look at the corporate dysfunction--the ruthless cost-cutting, toxic workplaces, and cutthroat management--that contributed to one of the worst tragedies in modern aviation Boeing is a century-old titan of American industry. The largest exporter in the US, it played a central role in the early days of commercial flight, World War II bombing missions, and moon landings. It remains a linchpin in the awesome routine of air travel today. But the two crashes of its 737 MAX 8, in 2018 and 2019, exposed a shocking pattern of malfeasance, leading to the biggest crisis in the company's history. How did things go so horribly wrong at Boeing? Flying Blind is the definitive exposâe of a corporate scandal that has transfixed the world. It reveals how a broken corporate culture paved the way for disaster, losses that were altogether avoidable. Drawing from aviation insiders, as well as exclusive interviews with senior Boeing staff, past and present, it shows how in its race to beat Airbus, Boeing skimped on testing, outsourced critical software to unreliable third-parties, and convinced regulators to put planes into service without properly equipping pilots to fly them. In the chill that it cast over its workplace, it offers a parable for a corporate America that puts the interests of shareholders over customers, employees, and communities. This is a searing account of how a once-iconic company fell prey to a win-at-all-costs mentality, destabilizing an industry and needlessly sacrificing 350 lives"--

Nachhaltigkeit im Tourismus erfordert immer auch ein Besuchermanagement, das auf Kapazitätsgrenzen und qualitativ tolerierbare Besucherdichten Rücksicht nimmt. Ein erster Schritt dabei sind datenbasierte Besucherstromanalysen. Langfristiges Ziel ist die Entwicklung von evidenzbasierten Maßnahmen zur Besucherlenkung, die sich nicht nur an einzelnen subjektiven Eindrücken orientieren, sondern mit einer fundierten und validen Datenbasis begründet werden können. Auf diese Weise sollen Besucherlenkungsmaßnahmen wirklich dort ansetzen, wo es ohne Interventionen zu unerwünschten Effekten kommt. Der vorliegende Arbeitsbericht bietet eine Hilfestellung bei der Arbeit an Besucherstromanalysen und der Entwicklung von Interventionen für eine nachhaltige Besucherlenkung. Er entstand im Rahmen des Projektes Qualitätstourismus im Alpenraum, welches im grenzüberschreitenden Programm Interreg Bayern-Österreich gefördert wurde. Weiterführende Informationen zum Projekt finden sich unter www.nachhaltigertourismus.euDiese Publikation analysiert vier aktuell besonders bedeutsame Trends in der touristischen Mobilität. Weiters dokumentiert sie die pilothafte Anwendung von passiven Mobilfunkdaten zum Zwecke der Besucherstrommessung in fünf beispielhaften Use Cases in den beteiligten Projektregionen Berchtesgadener Land, Wagrain-Kleinarl und der Wolfgangseeregion. Zum Abschluss wurden bereits bestehende Empfehlungen zur Besucherstromlenkung, Best Practices aus beliebten Destinationen sowie Behaviour Change Interventions mittels Nudging zusammengefasst und strukturiert. Damit wurde eine fundierte Basis geschaffen, um Interventionen für die Lenkung von Besucherströmen systematisch zu entwickeln, um damit einen Beitrag für einen nachhaltigen Tourismus im Alpenraum zu leisten.

Commercial aviation took shape in Hong Kong as the city developed into a powerful economy. In Hong Kong Takes Flight, John Wong argues that Hong Kong's development into a regional and global airline hub was not preordained and views the city's globalization through the prism of its airline industry.

In my this book, I shall indicate how our future transportation tool may be invented in order to improve our qualify of lives or standard of lives to be better. How to improve our future transport tools in order to avoid air pollution more serious? It is my this book discussion about how transport invention or improvement, it will influence public transport passenger service and comfortable need aim. I shall attempt to research how transport improvement question in order to let readers feel how it can influence future public transport tools passenger individual choosing any kinds of pubic transport tools need as well as how is our future actual transport improvement achievement aim in order to keep our standard of lives ( quality of lives ) can be improved to achieve the best service standard and avoid any kinds of future public transport tools passengers number reduces. Because any public transport needs to be improved in order to satisfy passengers comfortable needs. IN passenger comfortable need psychology view, how to improve public transport service quality. It is my main discussion in this book topic, it concerns bus, ferry and rail public transport passenger psychology.

Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2016 im Fachbereich Verkehrswissenschaft, Note: 2,0, Fachhochschule Erfurt, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit untersucht anhand welchen Kriterien die Entscheidung von Verkehrsunternehmen für die Teilnahme am (((eTicket Projekt, und damit der Implementierung einer Lösung nach diesem Standard, erfolgen kann.Der (((eTicket Deutschland Standard bildet ein Grundkonzept zur elektronischen Abrechnung von Transportdienstleistungen. Durch die Nutzung der bereits implementierten VDV Kernapplikation in Kombination mit den Terminals in Bussen, Zügen und anderen Transportangeboten werden die Fahrtdaten von Kunden ermittelt und der Fahrtpreis automatisch berechnet. Hauptsächliches Ziel des Projektes ist es, eine reibungsfreie und unkomplizierte Interoperabilität zwischen Verkehrsverbünden zu schaffen, ohne die Nutzer in den sogenannten Tarifjungel einzuweisen, der aufgrund der Vielzahl an Dienstleistungsanbietern existiert. Weiter können ermittelte Daten zur konkreten Nutzung von Transportmitteln zur Verbesserung des Angebotes genutzt werden, was allerdings in Konflikt zum Bundesdatenschutzgesetz steht. Durch die starke Vereinfachung der Bezahlvorgänge soll die Akzeptanz des ÖPNV vor allem von Gelegenheitsnutzern gesteigert werden, wodurch sich die Anzahl an Fahrten und Kunden für die Verkehrsunternehmen erhöht.Anhand dieser Kriterien soll ein Transportdienstleister entscheiden, ob eine Implementierung eines Systems nach dem eTicket Standard wirtschaftlich ist. Das ist aufgrund der Art von Angeboten, Kundenanzahl und dem Einflussgebiet der jeweiligen Dienstleister stark unterschiedlich und kann daher nicht verallgemeinert werden. Am Ende dieser Arbeit folgt ein Fazit, das die Pro- sowie die Kontraseite des eTicket Konzeptes beleuchtet.
