Airport privatisation in Japan: Unleashing air transport liberalisation?
In 2013 the Japanese government established policy to reform the ownership and management structure of all Japanese government-owned airports in a bid to reduce its large financial burden by involving private entities. However, several constraints and structural issues in Japan’s
