But the benefits of connectivity must be protected with appropriate support from governments if the air transport sector is to fulfill its potential as a connector of people, trade, and tourism and a driver of sustainable development. These are the conclusions drawn in a new report, "Aviation: Benefits Beyond Borders," released by the Air Transport Action Group (ATAG).
