Abstract

Network industries can be defined as in which a firm or its product consists of many interconnected nodes, a node is a unit of the firm or its product, and the links between nodes define the character of the trade in the industry. Telecommunications, transport, and energy are examples of network industries. Network industries play important roles in the modern economy because the infrastructure and services they provide form the basis of the functioning of modern economies. To improve the functioning and efficiency of these sectors, local and national governments issue some regulations on these sectors. The main objective of these regulations is to ensure that the activities are carried out in the most efficient and effective way possible. The rapid increase in trade due to globalization has made the aviation sector one of the most important elements of the global economy. Therefore, in this study, regulations issued on aviation sector in Turkey are mentioned on the basis of slots, charges, passenger rights, ground handling, and passenger services. Later, an efficiency review analysis is built on studies carried out during the last fifteen years on airports located in Turkey. Then, statistics related to methods, input, and output parameters are provided.
