‘In the last 30 years, most developed nations have corporatized their air navigation service providers, providing significant benefits to the travelling public and national economies. At a time when one of the last holdouts – the United States – is once again discussing the corporatization of its air traffic control system, Dr. Neiva’s book presents a thorough analysis of the issues that other countries have had to deal with when they corporatized their systems. This book should not be missed by anyone who wants a detailed study of a very important policy, transportation, and economic topic.’ -- Jim Burnley, Former US Secretary of Transportation, US ‘Not every book has the potential to change the world, but this one does. Dr. Neiva’s research and analysis of the US experience with respect to air traffic control, and his extensive look at how other countries provide these services, could help make history. The US is now seriously considering major reforms to its air traffic services, and access to objective, thoughtful, and rigorous research like this is essential reading for policy makers and academics alike.’ -- Joshua Schank, CEO and President, Eno Center for Transportation, DC, US ‘The changing structure and growth of global aviation has resulted in major challenges for the capacity, organization, and financing of air navigation. Rui Neiva’s book presents a thorough review of the governance and performance of air navigation providers worldwide. The use of a variety of economic analyses provides new insights about the drivers of air traffic control performance, including important findings about the effects of commercialization/privatization and the benefits of airspace reform. The book’s analysis of productivity across European air navigation service providers is especially well done. The book is an important – and timely – contribution to the future development of aviation infrastructure.’ -- John Strong, College of William and Mary, US
