‘Dr Hanke’s book provides a fascinating insight into the history and growth of e-commerce in airlines, as well as the challenges now facing companies within this fast-paced area of our business. A great read for practitioners and customers alike.’ — Kevin McQuillan, Head of ba.com and mobile channels, British Airways‘This book is long overdue. Peppered with numerous airline examples of good, inadequate and bad practice. It explores and analyzes all the key areas of airline e-commerce.
