Zusammenfassung
In Deutschland gibt es derzeit eine Vielzahl von Plänen zum Ausbau von regionalen Airports zu internationalen Verkehrsflughäfen. Viele Lokalpolitiker hoffen darauf, die Wachstumsstory des Flughafens Hahn, der inzwischen als internationaler Verkehrsflughafen eingestuft wird und im Jahr 2005 auf ein Passagieraufkommen von etwa 3 Mio. kam, in ihrer Region zu wiederholen. Wenngleich der Flughafen Hahn noch immer rote Zahlen schreibt, ist die Aussicht auf einen regionalen Wirtschaftsaufschwung mit neuen Arbeitsplätzen in strukturschwachen Regionen für politische Entscheidungsträger verlockend. difu
The planned expansion of most regional airports in Germany is a waste of scarce public funds. Only a few regional airports can be operated economically, Most of them offer no potential to ease the congestion at larger airports, do not have critical mass, cannibalise one another and compete with each other for subsidies. Moreover, they are often dependent on a single low-cost carrier. The projects are mainly prestige objects for regional politicians. The expansion of unprofitable, publicly financed regional airports leads to competitive distortions, Germany already has enough airports and only a few of them are struggling with capacity bottlenecks. Sensible economic governance can help redress these ills. For one thing, shifting responsibility for decision-making to the federal level will overcome the risk of egotistic considerations at the regional level. For another, privatisation will solve the efficiency problems. Possible losses would not land in the taxpayer's lap. difu
