Introduction
Historically, air travel has survived largely through state support, whether in the form of equity or subsidies. The airline industry as a whole has made a cumulative loss during its 120-year history, the costs include subsidies for aircraft development and airport construction. Because of increasing fuel prices and new industry standards the airlines have raised ticket prices as a compensation for the high cost of operating. Going hand-in-hand with these increasing prices, the effects of 9/11 have added more strain to the already existing problem of debt the airline industry faces.
