Low-Cost Aviation: Society, Culture and Environment examines critical societal issues related to the advent of low-cost aviation. It is interested in how low-cost carriers (LCCs) have (re)fashioned social lives, cultural identities, and environmental responses. It situates LCCs holistically within a societal infrastructural framework rather than solely within a transport context. The book explores the changing nature of passengers’ profiles and mobile cultures, new consumption patterns and poltico-economic reconfigurations, as well as sustainability challenges. Providing a research agenda for aeromobilities, Low-Cost Aviation: Society, Culture and Environment examines the most pressing social, cultural, and political impacts of LCCs on society in different contexts around the world. It bridges transport and mobility studies, fostering transport sustainability and mobility justice to improve air transport management. Key Features: • Offers empirically grounded insights on key social issues in low-cost aviation and their implications • Draws on the expertise of an international team of scholars across the social sciences, including geography, anthropology, urban studies, economics, and policy studies • Utilizes case studies and examples from Asia, America, Europe, and Africa • Offers new theoretical approaches to air travel cultures and issues on climate change
