SUMMARY:
The change in the airport's perspective from being merely a social infrastructure to becoming a financial tool has brought about significant changes in the aviation sector. The sector's growth and market liberalization have strengthened the view of airports as businesses. Therefore, the use of a business model becomes essential to understand and enhance airport operations, making them more financially sustainable and attractive.However, within the industry, regional airports have faced challenges due to the lack of interest from airlines, which have shifted operations to larger urban centers. This has led to financial difficulties for these airports, directly affecting the connectivity of the population living away from major urban hubs. To mitigate this financial and social impact, initiatives like the Programa de Desenvolvimento da Aviação Regional (PDAR) in Brazil have been introduced to ensure regular operations at regional airports.Given this context, studying the business model of airports, specifically those in Pernambuco, is crucial for understanding the situation and establishing future guidelines. Based on business models found in the literature, certain variables that characterize the model were identified. A sample of 185 regional airports was chosen following the classification of the Plano Aeroviário Nacional (PAN).To narrow down the analysis and compare airports with similar characteristics, the K-means clustering method was employed, resulting in three groups. Additionally, the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used to find the most efficient airports to serve as references for the business model of Pernambuco's airports.The cluster analysis allowed for a reduced scope of analysis and comparison of Pernambuco's regional airports with other groups. Overall, Pernambuco's airports showed significant economic and social potential, and measures for their development were recommended. These measures include the operation of new airlines, the addition of new routes, and the establishment of official websites and social media presence for the airports. Considering the prevailing trends in larger airports and recent rounds of airport concessions in Brazil, these regional airports can be grouped together for future concession rounds.
