Resuming Business As Usual Difficult For Arab Airlines

Resuming Business As Usual Difficult For Arab Airlines

This excellent AviationWeek and Space Technology article spotlights how the darker side of the Arab Spring; the Terrorist and Insurgent Threat in the Maghreb; and Israel-IAEA-Iran Confrontation all loom as factors airlines and the tourist industry must cope with. This linked article doesn't even really explore the Iranian situation in relation to the geography of Dubai and Doha. Political stabilization is imperative for Egypt's tourism economy, and the turmoil in the area can impact the economics of the airline industry, cruise industry and tourism.

Political Risks and Threat Assessments will be of increasing importance for those involved in commerce in and with this area.
