Through critical discussion and case studies, the book covers sustainable aviation fuels, policy evolution, risk management, infrastructure development, community engagement, and the alignment of sustainable tourism with aviation practices. International examples from both Western and Eastern markets provide a global perspective, and chapters are authored by both academicians and industry practitioners, combining theoretical insights with practical applications.

Key topics include management practices for sustainability, emerging global trends, and regulatory challenges such as market volatility, new markets, and trade barriers.
