Coverage takes in route announcements, airport expansion and renovation projects, on-time performance data, airline labor negotiations, fare structures, safety incident reports and the regulatory proceedings that govern carriers and airports. Labor agreements between carriers and pilot and cabin crew unions set operational parameters that affect performance data for years after signing, making contract cycles a recurring subject. Consolidation in the airline industry has reduced the number of carriers in most markets, which means regulatory review of mergers carries more weight than in industries with more competitors. Slot controls at congested airports produce their own coverage track, since they determine which routes are commercially viable and which are not.
