European Aviation Sector Under the Impact of Covid-19

Öz

The Covid-19 pandemic has deeply affected many sectors around the world, but the aviation sector has faced a particularly major crisis. Falling demand during the pandemic period due to reasons such as travel bans and health concerns rapidly reduced air travel. Airline companies suffered huge revenue losses due to flight cancellations and low occupancy rates. To analyze the situation, it is important to assess the performance of the aviation sector and identify opportunities for improvement. This study was conducted to compare the efficiency of European countries in the aviation sector using data envelopment analysis. The study aims to help understand the effects of the pandemic on the aviation sector across countries and also includes a broader analysis of Turkey.

COVID-19'UN ETKİSİ ALTINDA AVRUPA HAVACILIK SEKTÖRÜ

Öz

Covid-19 pandemisi, dünya genelinde birçok sektörü derinden etkilemiştir, ancak havacılık sektörü özellikle büyük bir krizle karşı karşıya kalmıştır. Pandemi döneminde seyahat yasakları, sağlık endişeleri gibi sebeplerle düşen talep, hava seyahatini hızla azaltmıştır. Havayolu şirketleri, uçuş iptalleri ve düşük doluluk oranları nedeniyle büyük gelir kayıpları yaşamıştır. Durum analizi yapmak için havacılık sektörünün performansını değerlendirmek ve iyileştirme fırsatlarını belirlemek önemlidir. Bu çalışma, veri zarflama analizi kullanarak Avrupa ülkelerinin havacılık sektöründeki etkinliklerini karşılaştırmak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Çalışmada pandeminin ülkeler genelindeki havacılık sektörüne olan etkilerini anlamaya yardımcı olmak amaçlanmış aynı zamanda Türkiye özelinde daha geniş bir incelemeye yer verilmiştir.
